The light but dense electro-acoustic pop of the band created in the mid-90's influenced several generations and left its mark on the sound of its time. Along the way, Air has produced the cult album "Moon Safari" in 1998.
Since they met in a Versailles high-school in the 1980's before becoming Air in the mid-90's, Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel have never stopped claiming the volatile aspect of their music. Each project constitutes its own and unique planet. The retro-futuristic compositions of Moon Safari's, their first international success in 1998, were the soundtrack of a whole generation of teenagers' trips to heaven. On the opposite side, "The Virgin Suicides", recorded for Sofia Coppola's film in 2000, was the Dark side of the Moon Safari with its gothic and dreamlike tracks conveying teenage trouble.
