"Not to be confused with the Henry Threadgill-led unit, the Japanese jazz group, or the massively popular French duo, this is the group led by the husband and wife team of Tom and Googie Copolla, on keys and vocals respectively, who cut one record for Herbie Mann's Embryo label in 1971. Produced by Mann, Air's sole release is a tasty slice of jazz-rock and soul-rock with vocals reminiscent of the great Laura Nyro. Featuring help from Randy Brecker and Jan Hammer, this Queensbred group steams through ten originals and close out with a scorching version of the classic 'I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free.' On CD for the first time ever."

"As two of the most dancefloor friendly tracks on Air's massively acclaimed new album Talkie Walkie, 'Surfing On A Rocket' and 'Alpha Beta Gaga' get several amazing new interpretations on this 7-track E.P. release, exclusive to the U.S. market. For 'Surfing On A Rocket', mysterious Israeli artist NoMo Heroes has produced a sublime downtempo version with an intoxicating Middle Eastern refrain, while DFA Records artist The Juan MacLean take us surfing in a deep, trippy hip-hop inflected style. For 'Alpha Beta Gaga', Air recruited celeb-DJ Mark Ronson to craft tough hip-hop beats around the tune's catchy whistled melody, one an instrumental mix and the other a vocal mix featuring MC Rhymefest."

"Recalling the elegant seduction of their classic single 'All I Need' from their seminal Moon Safari album, 'Cherry Blossom Girl' is a slice of classic Air and a song that is currently an Astralwerks priority at radio. In fact, Nigel Godrich's radio mix is the lead-off track on this 4-track CD single, which also includes contributions from Mazzy Star's Hope Sandoval and UK experimental pop pioneers Simian. The 12" single counterpart is a 3-track release and perfect for DJs working in the downtempo/lounge/chill-out setting."

"Now in the seventh year of a highly distinguished career, French electronic pop luminaries Air (JB Dunckel and Nicolas Godin); have made their most accomplished album to date with Talkie Walkie, a glorious set of cinematic songs that radiates a know-how unique to these talented Parisians and a sensibility for writing songs with great hooks and rich musical content. Still evident are the stirring string arrangements (this time courtesy of farmer Serge Gainsbourg arranger Michel Colombier), the otherworldly keyboard and percussion flourishes and Nicolas Godin's inventive fretwork, but the one big distinction here is the absence of guest vocalists. For the first time the band has performed all the vocals themselves." Bonus DVD - "Electronic Performers". A film by Bruno Dunckel. Live performance, Summer 2002. Features tracks: 'Electronic Performers', 'Talisman', 'Don't Be Light', 'People In the City', and 'La Femme D'Argent'. 35 minutes.

"Air returns in the new year with this deliciously diverse collection of remixes, edits and covers. Based around three key songs from the 10,000 Hz. Legend album, this attractively priced EP features a variety of flavors to fire the imagination of Air's loyal fanbase. The Neptunes transform 'Don't Be Light' into a jazzed-out hip-hop joint, while hot new Euro-talent The Hacker gives the song a hard-edged trance feel that recalls New Order's 'Blue Monday'." Remixes also by: Thomas Bangalter, Mr Oizo, Adrian Sherwood, Modjo, Roger Manning, Jack Lahana.

"Recorded in Paris and Los Angeles, the new album features plenty of trademark Air-isms; sweeping string arrangements, electronically treated vocals, ethereal backing harmonies. This time, however, the band reaches beyond the 70's electro-lounge og Moon Safari to create a next level listening experience, or as Spin magazine recently remarked in their Top 40 for 2001 issue... 'a soundtrack so vivid it will turn your daily life into a French film.'"

Full length debut by the French duo of Nicolas Godin and Jena Benoit, known for their spectacularly ethereal tracks on Mo'Wax and their collaboration with Jean Jacques Perrey. "Sophisticated yet playful, their music has a seductive, continental ambience which borrows from the soundtracks of Ennio Morricone and John Barry, French kitsch, the looped structures of electronica and, of course, the poignancy of pop."
