Air – Moon Safari [LP]

Limited vinyl LP pressing. 1998 debut album from the French postmodernist duo. Air raid every aspect of retro pop music, from the sublime to the ridiculous, in fashioning their sonic bricolage. Everything from Krautrock-inspired electronics to 1960s lounge music is incorporated into the work of Nicolas Godin and J.B. Dunckel. Moon Safari earned massive critical plaudits and put the duo at the forefront of modern, electronic-oriented pop. All tracks were penned by the duo with two tracks All I Need and You Make It Easy featuring lyrics penned by Beth Hirsch and addition input from Patrick Woodcock on Ce Matin La and Jean-Jacques Perrey on Remember.
