Call me a freak, but i love this album and it reminds me of the soundtrack for any generic 70s porn flick. That, by the way, makes it good mood music.
March 22, 2008I originally heard the first track while listening to KCRW and I knew I had to pick up this album. I wasn't dissapointed.
February 25, 2006This is Air's most famous, and arguably best, CD. It is dreamy yet tight and sets the bar for downtempo music. This is early Air before their CDs were full of collaborations.
If you're looking some music for background, to chill to, this is what you're looking for.
December 23, 2005This is the best Air record, hands down. The vibe for the most post is similar to the cool jazz of the early sixties, bossa nova, etc. Not that this music easily fits into any genre. But if you're looking for a laid back sound that's not at all boring, look no further.
The last two tracks are a big departure from the first five, but they are also very good, just in a different way. Think of the first five tracks as a chill intro to the spacey funk of the end of the record. The last two songs should get you in the mood to play something more upbeat. Try the Avalanches, "Since I Left You"

Great Album. This is the kind of album I just put on repeat. Excellent for something quiet and atmospheric in the background, but deserves your undivided attention on the first few listens. I don't own Moon Safari, but just a few tracks that I've purchased online. I'm buying it soon, too. Man, these guys are good. The mood that they capture isn't melancholy like so many other chill artists. It's not sappy new age stuff. It's just like walking through the garden and smelling the flowers. Regardless of your fav genre, this is highly recommended.
