When Air popped into consciousness in the mid-late 1990s, French dance music was enjoying a hey-day that it hasn't since seen. This album combined the airy, disco, distinctly French vibe with summery, laid-back undertones and sweet lyrics. The duo behind the band were a poppier foil to the more four-to-the-floor based Daft Punk and, as a result, this album crossed-over into the mainstream quicker than you can say Oooh-la-la!
