1-5 of 6 reviews of Talkie Walkie - Air

Chilled out tunes, from the chilled out masters.

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 ...
...weeks ago and put it in the car. I love this album for driving around in heavy traffic, as the mid tempo beats really allows you to relax and generally feel great. The CD cover is a picture of the two Gaelic songwriters with a background of mathematical symbols and equations.

The album starts well with this track, a good solid yet chilled beat followed by the male vocal singing the line, ‘You ... more

Air - Walkie Talkie reviewed

Advantages: At last! They have produced an album like Moon Safari
Disadvantages: It isn't Moon Safari!!

...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. ...

Sex for your ears

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 ...
...us ‘Daft Punk’ they fit easily into that French/disco/pop sound and still manage to be very different. The album opens with ‘Venus’ spooky hand claps and resonating piano chords with dreamy, almost whispered vocals. This gradually builds as synths and understated drums join in and the vocals become a mantra to loves young dream. The lyrics are very simple and will win no prizes for originality but it is the economy of words that helps to create ...

The leaders in chillout.

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 of chillout ...
...about this album - is that one can probably listen to it in almost any situation. I certainly can. There are a number of really excellent songs on this - including 'Cherry Blossom Girl' ,'Run', 'Surfing On A Rocker', 'Alpha Beta Gaga' (from the O2 advert) and the exceptional 'Alone In Kyoto' from the Lost In Translation soundtrack. The only weak track in my opinion is Mike Mills - but it's hardly weak - it just lacks the harmonic and melodic depth ...

A lovely down tempo album to be lazy to

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. Favourite ...
...TheFirstEscapist again) Mike Mills, they both include beautiful guitars and strings and really show the musical talent of the 2 french legends. This is a must buy, regardless of you musical tastes, you can fail to fall for the It was also the most used album by advertising agencies of last year, with the most famous has to be "Talisman" it was used by Orange for there animated campaogn last year. ...

electronica virgin finds smooth grooves

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. ...
...soothing, an excellent chilled out combination. Now that I've listened to it quite a bit I find that this album is great to read or study to as it is so relaxed and you don't really notice one track fading into another; it's like one lovely cohesive whole. I particularly like 'Cherry Blossom Girl', and 'Alone in Kyoto' which definitely have an interesting Japanese feel to them. I'm looking forward to hearing more Air, and if you're new to the genre ...

Reviews which might be of interest for "Talkie Walkie - Air"

Massive Attack have lost their way.

Advantages: Sound design. Interesting soundscapes. Sinead O'Connor.
Disadvantages: Melodic content non existent. Slightly dodgy production in areas.

- it would be a drone. It's unvaried, the mixes are poor and unclear and even distorted in places on Future Proof - the first track. Lastly - it's utterly unmemorable. I don't know where Massive Attack go from here - but the sound design on this album doesn't hide the simple truth in that they appear to have run out of melodies. If I wanted an album that sounded like this - I would go for the infinitely better Talkie Walkie - by Air. ...

Review of 100th Window - Massive Attack

The day I lost my Maidenhead, AGAIN

Advantages: Astounding sound, amazing music
Disadvantages: none

?). Heck, it happened to Oasis after two albums! Some bands eventually make their way out of the “rock doldrums” and some just disappear under the deadweight of their own fading reputation. Brave New World is an album that farts in the face of anyone who says that was the way that Iron Maiden was going. ...THEN A HISTORY Picture a young boy on the cusp of puberty, the joys and sorrows of adulthood as yet blissfully unknown to him. He’s tucked up in bed tuning in his portable transistor radio that’s shaped like a walkie talkie, combing the waveband known only as “FM Air” listening for messages from outer space, or at least the Police radio. All of a sudden he hears a dark and chilling voice (who we later learn is Vincent Price) reciting passages out of the bible that talk of diabolical deeds, and by ...

Review of Brave New World - Iron Maiden

Norwegians Spruced-up

Advantages: Nordic but nice!
Disadvantages: Nob-twiddling twee-ness

established a love of Royksopp is a 'good thing' to have?Melody AM established the band as a good thing. Before The Understanding came out I remember a reviewer said this album had so much riding on it that it ought to be gobbling coke-spiked sugar lumps prior to the 3.30 at Newmarket - (Or words to that effect!) I think this isn't too wide of the mark. Dance acts are notorious for difficult second albums. Look at fellow laid-back popsters Air for example. I reviewed their amazing Moon Safari on this website, but they didn't hit form again until Talkie Walkie, several albums later. The Understanding, like Melody AM and Moon Safarii, starts with the most haunting dittie on the album, Triumphant, with a gentle piano, simple chord progressions and more than a glancing nod to Beethoven's Moonnlight Sonata (also one of my faves!)
