excellent band.... these two chaps really have some
touching sensitivity.
Talkie Walkie is a great releasen and so is the virign
suicides...

their discogs is not that vast ;] you could start from the
beginning, with "moon safari". i think.

...and my fav track from talkie walkie is Run :

Holy girl
Don't get up
For running

Stay with me
I feel sad
When you run

Sands of time
Are lying
On my chest

Stay in bed
I feel sad
When you run

Stay like this
On the hills
Of my chest

Don't wake up
I feel strange
When you go

Stop the night
Hold me tight
Holy girl

Don't stand up
I feel strange
When you go

nah... moon safari ain't that great... i'd say start with
the virgin suicides just to be contradictory... : P

virgin suicides is good for a start if you're in love :P

moon safari is a good point of reference for later
tracks/albums. if you're listening to air album by album, of
course.

I think their pre-Moon Safari stuff is their best. They
havent managed to out-do Modulor after all these years.

one is pretty....sweet.

modular mix! but the other 2 singles that comprise the
original 5 track ep are just as good.

somewhat the whole "premier symptomes" is better than
"10000khz" but it's like comparing two bands....or comparing
Air to Zero 7.

i'm glad that a band can at the same time have a distinct
sound and be diverse enough to split their fanbase as to
which album or era they prefer.

other artists, take note! :)

i think that Air , after all they've released so far, can
only surprise....in a positive way...hopefully ;]

as i said in the last thread about these lovely french
cuties, 10,000 hz legend don't get nearly enough love here,
esp for being their weirdest/most "idm" record.

check out the vagabond (featuring beck) and sex born poison;
both are pure mdma in music form.

should have stopped while they were ahead. modular mix was
their best track, mostly gone downhill since then. last
album was unlistenable, who told those dudes they could
sing?

I've only heard Run. It's a beautifully weird song :)
I'll check on some of the suggestions in this thread,
thanks.
