hey, they're good. i had average expectations from what i had heard, but some of it is great... : ) and their videos are pretty cool as well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they manage to make music which is being liked by 98% of people who hear it. or 100%, but that's not possible. |

i dont like the "virgin suicides" cd. i seriously think its too sweet, like for a fucking gay drama film. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i do not like virgin suicides too but I knew a guy who liked it abnormally, he could become your enemy if you didn't like the album |

"I knew a guy who liked it abnormally, he could become your enemy if you didn't like the album" people like that are irritating. |

I had their track "All I Need" stuck in my head the other day. Which reminds me, the video for that was pretty nicely done too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
talkie walkie is easily their best |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love most of what they've done except for Moon Safari, the best IMO is 10 000hz legend which just happens to be one of my best albums of all time. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, but he is one of my best friends. he has almost forgotten that music now. Just don't remind him if you see him. |
||||||||

I really love Air. They're in my top whatever. They're like minty fresh frenchness in every listen. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me too. they're probably one of my favorite artists. their music speaks to me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've always found that their music bored me, just doesn't 'click' with me, most people I know don't mind them though.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
One of my favorate bands although I have not heard the Baraccelo colaboration. Any good? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Is that the one where they do music while the guy reads? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i quite liked some air albums but they got tiring _very_ quickly; there's little depth to the music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's not great, the music is great but the italian bloke spoils it cos he doesn't shut up (I can't understand Italian), if only they'd do an instrumental version. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'all i need' is simply one of the best tracks ever made. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont think anyone dislikes air. everyone likes them, yet thier music isn't shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Virgin Suicides is their best. Talki Walkie is great all so |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you are wrong, on all three counts. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you must be very soft person in real life. this album is the pinkiest music ive heard, and i dont think they made it on purpose. all you need is pink shoes. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

10 000hz legend is incredibly deep, especially if you are a head with a penchance for electronic music, why isn't anyone else namechecking this, u have all heard it I presume? If not do so now, your life will be that bit better for it I promise. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
10,000 hz legend is one of my top whatver albums of all time. air just simply blissful. also, e (preferable molly) + weed + air = probably one of the best experiences i have ever had |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all i need video is the most beautiful video made IMo theres a skate teacher and his girlfriend and they talk abou love and i cant understand because spoken englih is hard for my brazilian ears. but their voices and the video photography makes me love the song and feel romantic and happy about life and the girls that left and bumped me. please, native english speakers, is the text on this video good? does it deserve my love? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I need to get more from them methinks. The only track I have is 'la femma d'argent' <-- the track that everyone knows |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have 10,000 hz legend, but i don't really like it that much. i really like talkie walkie, but there is no fucking way i'm buying it, because it's copy protected. no. thanks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Premieres Symptomes is really good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they have progressively got better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all their albums are excellent. talkie walkie is probably my least favorite. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
their music's really cool 10000hz and walkie talkie are the best even from all down tempo or easy listening bands u know air's sounds make u become feel like "caramel prisoner" oneday :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
10,000 hz legend is great. It's really french and pretty bizzare in places (particularly the dreadful lyrics) but it just sets up a great atmosphere. I like all their stuff really, including Moon Safari. Their worst is the newest album imo. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
holy crap, ive just found this live set in berlin around when they came out with moon safari. this is fucking ace man, unfrickinbelievable dancy. how i love air. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hey, please quit hoggin' all the air. leave some for the rest of us. (awkward silence) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the live show on the bonus dvd that came with talkie walkie looks and sounds great too. love, imagination, dreaming - sums up air quite well. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

funny that everyone seems to love 10 000 Hz Legend here, i've heard many people found it deceiving : ) maybe it's because it's more experimental or something? anyway i totally love "The Vagabond", but not "How Does It Make You Feel" (maybe it takes several listens to like it, i don't know)... haven't heard all tracks since i don't have the album though. so far i have Moon Safari and Talkie Walkie. - Refund : have you got the mail i sent you? (i used the mail in your xlt profile)... xf : i've heard that a few times... that's why i downloaded albums before buying them. how quickly did you get bored of it? jkd : the regular edition is copy-protected, but is the limited one with the dvd as well? i've heard that it wasn't because it's an enhanced cd as well... ' _ ' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the limited edition is copy protected. i can't even play it on my pc... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yeah, I also got an extra track on w/t, one that wasn't included off the mp3's I got off of you, I realised I still had my active soulseek folder not shared when you came over, there was some stuff in it worth checking out, oh btw I see what you mean about cex, top stuff.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
*checks* yes ^^; |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh bob! that was my opinion! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
FlyAgaric > thanks for the warning..! i almost bought it, i did well not to. (i kinda regret buying it as a gift now though, i hope the person doesn't have problems to play it °_°) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My one ain't copy protected, I always buy air cds though cos IMO they are one of the only acts that actually deserve the money. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the only air cd i thought was shit was the remix one 'everybody hertz' it was awful, but then i only paid £3 for it new, and it has a video for people in the city, so i guess it wasnt that bad. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

If you love Air's sound and can tolerate bands such as Mercury Rev and The Flaming Lips then please check Grandaddy. Their stuff is beautiful , maybe start with "he's simple, he's dumb, he's the pilot", "nonphenonemal lineage" or "the warming sun". I'm a massive Air fan and Grandaddy do it for me in the same sort of way, lot's of lovely atmospheric analog and fantastic musical arrangements. One of the most creative bands out there for me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I bought Moon Safari because I saw the video of Kelly Watch the Stars and liked it, only to find the album sucked and Kelly Watch the Stars on the album was different from the music in the video. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you bought their 2nd worse album mate, get 10000hz legend and never look back |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you like mercury rev & grandaddy, check the kingbury manx, especially their first 2 releases presumably when you say mercury rev you mean deserters songs, not that sonic youth type drivel they did beforehand :) i really liked deserters songs but the followup all is dream, and the new album aren't as good. grandaddy! again the software slump is a great album, but sumday didn't really hit it with me. i've just dug out he's simple he's dumb he's the pilot 12", i thought it was such a good song i bought the single! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If anyone wants to sell me a vinyl copy of one of their tracks that has Kelly Watch the Stars (Moog Cookbook remix) on it then I'd be very happy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cheers for the tip, I only mentioned Mercury Rev because it would give some indication of what to expect from the vocals, I'm not a massive MR fan actually, only really ever half got into their first album plus "bronx cheer" from Boces. Sumday is a great album but it does need a bit of pruning, "the warming sun" is a real spine shiverer once it grows on you |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i had a good look around, it seems the 'all i need' 12" is rarer than i thought. in fact i could'nt find copy anywhere in existance. expect for about 1m50 behind me and slightly to the left :) there are plenty of cd copies of it though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the 2 records i'm missing are the original 12"'s of modulor mix, probably my favourite air track. but i have everything else, apart from the new remixes from talkie walkie which i refused to buy on the principal they were rubbish. |
