C'est L'homme Ideal Charme Au Masculin
1997 was supposed to be the year electronic music to take over amidst the decline of Alternative Rock. Unfortunately, the hype concerning the new wave of electronic music turned off many music fans as they returned back to straight-ahead pop and catchy modern rock as well as hip-hop. When the...

Eat this Kraftwerk!
Air is one of these bands which seems to have come from out of nowhere, and swiped a large, yet knowledgeable crowd of admirers around the world. They're part of a progressive French electronic movements that are bringing new talents into the music scene; the most popular of these is probably Sash,... Read full review »
Moon Safari: Amazing Fluff
I'm not usually a fan of lounge music, but a friend of mine turned me on to Air. This album is their finest work. Every synthesized note seems to fall together seamlessly. At a little under 45 minutes, it's not that short, but the tracks seem to fly by. For example, The opening song, "La Femme... Read full review »
All that and a bag of chips.
I can remember looking for something different to listen to on cdnow.com and ran across the real audio samples for this cd. I was immediately hooked on songs like "Kelly Watch the Stars", "La femme D' Argent" (which has been featured in a few tv commercials - one for cosmetics with Andie McDowell,... Read full review »
La 'Femme D'Argent
French music has not gotten its due in America, at least the really good stuff like this. At least the French popular music. I recently heard an artist called Thick Pigeon and my mind essentially hit the wall behind me. It occured to me there is so much amazing music that gets no recognition like... Read full review »
A classic CD that will be popular 30 years from now
I'd like to think that Air is one of the most important bands to come out of 90's electronica. Their sound defies categorization. At first listen you might want to say, "sounds like that stuff i heard at Kroger when i was getting some green beans, you know, that cheesy elevator music." then you... Read full review »
Electronica/lounge at its best
My opinion is that this CD was the best CD of 1998. It is an excellent lounge/electronica (whatever you name it)CD and it is a "must" buy.
Air is a French duo (as mentioned on the album cover) and this is their debut CD (Their previous EP recently got re-issued in US, it is a good one,...

eminently ignorable
I bought this as an experiment in a buy two get one free sale as I couldn't really find a third album I wanted. Having been quite taken with the singles I figured it couldn't hurt. It doesn't. Nor does it do anything else though.
Things begin to wrong with the first track and its strange...

Music to fall in love to...
This album is the most beautiful thing I?ve heard in a long time. From the moment it begins, it wraps its warm velvet around you, holding you close the whole way through. It?s like sitting by a fire that?s just the right temperature, a jumper that fits just right, or being able to sleep in on the... Read full review »
Huzzah for smart dance music!
Now that electronica has grown and expanded into several different categories and forms, we should all thank the gods that someone decided to make an album for people tired of repetitive beats and samples.
Air falls in with the lineage of 'intelligent dance music' such as Autechre or The...
