Covering a song as universally adored as M83′s sublime “Midnight City” is risky business, but New York’s The Knocks, joined here by vocalist Mandy Lee, manage to lovingly recreate the night driving anthem and dress it in new, disco-bound clothes. The original is by no means a stranger to the dance floor, but with their cover, The Knocks make it that much easier to play “Midnight City” at your next glow stick-appropriate event.
