I originally heard this song without knowing who actually was performing. Turns out, this is the new endeavor (formed in 2009) by Nicolas Fromageau. He was one of the original founding members of M83, a band that I really enjoyed suring their early albums, especially Lost Ghosts. Now he´s back, with Christophe Guerin and producer Jean-Philippe Talaga in Team Ghost. The group picks up where M83 left off in the early albums, combining electronic sounds with shoegaze feel.
"High Hopes" is a track from their 2010 album Celebrate What You Can't See. The video was directed by Romain Glé and Thomas Séon and matches the music perfectly. Nothing like shoegaye and water drops. Enjoy!
Also, look out this October for a possible collaboration between Team Ghost, Zola Jesus, and Beck. Should be interesting.
Sidenote:
In case you are wondering, M83 has experienced a pulse/decay career. See graphic below. However, they maintain a good internet search presence.
