anyone knows/likes their music?

i went to their concert last night and i’m f***ing impressed.
thought i’d share some of their music here.

probably their best known song
Cherry Blossom Girl









live version (Liege, 2007):




Sexy Boy








this one sounds like a Bach’s fugue:
Mike Mills








Playground - with recognizable influence of Pink Floyd’s style.








Talisman






 
i've never really delved into this, brilliant stuff. need to check out their albums..
 
I used to take walks in the rain with Cherry Blossom Girl in my headphones, when it first came out.. Beautiful track...
 
I can't seem to get the one that sounds like a Bach Fugue to work, and that's the one I want to hear the most. Darn.
 
Sure have. They've made some really great indie/ambient/electronic music, and i'm under the impression that they're quite big here in Europe. If I get a chance, I would definitely go to their concert.
 
Moon Safari

thanks again for hooking me up Chihiro, i had a good listen over the weekend and was really impressed with their debut material. there's nothing nicer than committing a real and lush string orchestra within an electronica vibe, i really liked that aspect the most. and i definitely hear the Pink Floyd influence throughout the whole album.

New Star In The Sky is a definite nod to Floyd and Rick Wright's masterpiece of a similar name =)







 
^ that is the one i particularly dislike LOL.
less (acoustic) vocals = better track, imo
(as a general rule for Air's music)
