French iconic duo AIR is releasing a special Live & Demos edition of their seminal debut album Moon Safari for Record Store Day on April 12th: a white coloured vinyl including 10 unique rarities, demo versions and BBC live sessions

Since its release, Moon Safari has left an indelible mark on pop culture, with over 3 million albums sold. Celebrating its 25th anniversary last year, the release of Moon Safari catapulted Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel to the uppermost rung of electronic music's ladder and left an indelible imprint on pop culture at the end of the 20th Century. AIR's boundary-pushing album has long been praised for its innovative sonics that have inspired countless musicians to think outside the box, so much so that their influence even transcended their own medium

In 30 years of career, the band has garnered an extensive list of worldwide accolades for their unique brand of downtempo electronic music that not only sculpted the sound for the next generation of electronic-influenced pop music but also was able to withstand the test of time in its own right. Moon Safari birthed hit singles in Kelly Watch The Stars, All I Need and Sexy Boy sold millions of copies around the world, and pushed AIR into headline status at major festivals

25 years on, it's not hard to reason why Moon Safari has stood the test of time. It's a mood you want to live inside of forever

It's a revelation.
