Advantages: Good tracks for getting that chilled out feeling Disadvantages: Tracks are a little similar, suffers when compared to 'Moon Safari' album.
^^Summary^^
This is a good album if you want a soft gentle chill out album. I tend to have this playing in the background after a hard day’s work or when I’m driving. It’s not as good as the earlier Moon Safari album, but it is still good on its own. Alpha Beta Gaga is my favourite track and Biological is my least favourite.
^^Introduction^^
I bought this at the tail end of 2004, I listened to it a couple of times and then forgot about it. I ...

Advantages: At last! They have produced an album like Moon Safari Disadvantages: It isn't Moon Safari!!
...a single though!
To summarise, Walkie Talkie is a great album that is a laster. However this is only on the proviso that you do not compare it constantly to Moon Safari. To me it is an extension of it and, whilst may not be better on the whole, is still a damn good album. It is worth a buy to remind you of who are still the best chill out band there is when they produce albums like this. ...

Advantages: Chilled perfection Disadvantages: None what's bad about chillin'?
Air – Talkie Walkie
Air are a mighty fine couple of French guys who make exquisite music. Full of Gallic charm and oozing French style they are true craftsmen who construct songs of real, delicate beauty and presence. Talkie Walkie is their 3rd studio album proper and is a definite return to form after their less accessible ’60,000 htz the Legend.’
Jean-Benoit Dunckel and Nicolas Godin had their first release as ‘Air’ way back in 1995 and haven’t ...

Advantages: Brilliant sound design. Excellent mix (Nigel Godrich). Good melodic and harmonic content. Disadvantages: Very difficult to find any. There's only one weak track -05 - Mike Mills.
For me at the moment - there's only two names in chillout - Zero 7 and Air.
It would be unfair to compare the two - as the styles are completely different - but there is something about Air that places them above everyone else.
This album is probably their best work so far - as it has finally gotten rid of the slightly cheesy numbers that plagued some of their earlier work.
Listening to Air should be an experience - but also - the essence ...

Advantages: A beautifully produced collection of 'lazy' music Disadvantages: None this album is sublime
Air have grown up with this album, it for me is their best. I know most people think I'm mad, but for me each track conjures up a different image of what I would be doing had I all the money I need. They've kept away from the more upbeat drum and synth line programming the Moon Safari had and replaced it with really intricate layering of instruments, and have brought out their guitars. that just seem to float around you, forcing you to relax.

Advantages: fantastic overall sound Disadvantages: fades into the background of your awareness
If, like me, you're trying to break into this genre of music, this album is an excellent place to start. It was released 17 February of 2004, so it's quite recent. I can't claim familiarity with Air's other albums, so I'll just stick to this one. I actually got to know it quite decently on a recent transatlantic flight on BA from London to Boston. I was able to drift in and out of sleep quite pleasantly with these tunes in my semi aware subconsciousness. ...
