Random Track of the Day

Bit of electronica today for a change. Air are a band I have featured once before, when reviewing their album “The Virgin Suicides OST”, but this is from their debut album, released all the way back in 1998, called “Moon safari”.
Kelly watch the stars! --- Air --- from "Moon Safari" on Virgin
I haven't heard too much of Air's output, but this seems to be a fairly typical electronica song, with lots of synth and keyboard, weird whooshy sounds, drum machines and liberal use of vocoder to repeat the one and only line of lyric, the title. Not half bad. The synth-bass sort of reminds me of Human League's smash “Don't you want me”. Yeah,
that's how much I know about electronic pop music!
