Just arrived - Air's 1997 debut EP,
Premiers SymptĂ´mes.
This is one of my all-time favorite downtempo / ambient / future jazz releases, and I'm proud to finally add it to my collection.
This 2015 Parlophone reissue is a 180g pressing and features a die-cut version of the original packaging and a digital download. In my opinion, this EP is more seamless and consistent than their seminal first full-length release,
Moon Safari. It's rich with the warm tonalities of all my favorite instruments - the Fender Rhodes, Minimoog, Wurlitzer organ, sitar, and Clavinet which defined Air's gorgeously retro signature sound.
Pure love.
