Radio - transistor waves - tubes

AIR have placed with this album appeared in 1999 the foundation of their success. Where: "Premiers symptômes" is actually not an album in the traditional sense, but a compilation of their first singles, some remixes, some excerpts. But no one should be fooled by thinking that that would be a mixed lot of individual songs now.

AIR have developed here a part peaceful, relaxing kind of music. Impulse there was sure of POWER PLANT, at least of the later phase. The fact that many analog instruments were used sounds now actually already "passé". But one wonders again how warm sound these sounds. No trace of sterility. The Moog used, Korg and the rest of them are a real treat and give your music exactly these typical AIR sound. A highlight of the plate is of course "Le soleil est près de moi". But the other 6 songs have this magic in it, the so conveys a while listening to a pleasant feeling.

Each AIR-fan, or want to be it, can not get on this CD. It explains why AIR are become what they are today internationally.
