Random Track of the Day
Tuesday, October 25 2011
Today's Random Track of the Day slows things down nicely, with another example of that fine electronica duo Air, and a little piece taken from their “Premiers symptomes” album.
Le soleil est pres de moi --- Air --- from "Premiers symptomes" on Source
Nice little atmospheric, ambient piece, laid back with as usual a preponderance of keyboards and synth, and nice use of the vocoder, “Le soleil est pres de moi”, which means the sun is close to me, is one of those dreamy, nod-off-to-sleep tunes that would be at home on any chill collection mixtape. The album is actually a compilation of many of Air's early singles, and you don't need A-Level French I'm sure to work out that the title of the album translates to “first symptoms”.
