Electronic Sound  |  Issue 115
Air are currently on an extensive world tour to promote the deluxe edition of their landmark 1998 album ‘Moon Safari’. Performing inside a huge glass box that looks like something out of Stanley Kubrick’s ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’, Jean-Benoît Dunckel and Nicolas Godin are playing the album live and in full for the first time – and the result is a major triumph. The pair speak about the gorgeously languid and exquisitely produced ‘Moon Safari’ in our cover feature, as we assess the influence of a record that hit double platinum sales in the UK and remains an electronic masterpiece to this day. With big bells on.
Elsewhere in the mag, we have interviews with industrial technoids British Murder Boys, pop experimentalist Conny Frischauf and oddball hauntologists Orbury Common. We also chat with veteran DJ Richard Sen, Radiophonic Workshopper Paddy Kingsland and Minimal Wave boss Veronica Vasicka, while Adrian Sherwood and Dennis Bovell recall the making of Creation Rebel’s classic ‘Dub From Creation’ album. Add in the eclectic DMX Krew and art rockers Walt Disco, who have just been touring with OMD, and you’ve got lots of good stuff to read in the coming weeks.
