Portrait of Air

Air

Air is a French electronic music duo consisting of Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel, formed in Versailles in 1995. Renowned for their lush, atmospheric sound, Air blends elements of synth-pop, ambient, downtempo, and chillout, often drawing inspiration from 1970s science fiction and French pop traditions. The group's breakthrough came with their critically acclaimed debut album "Moon Safari" in 1998, which featured iconic tracks like "Sexy Boy" and "All I Need," cementing their international reputation.

Air's subsequent work, including albums such as "10 000 Hz Legend," "Talkie Walkie," and their evocative soundtrack for Sofia Coppola’s film "The Virgin Suicides," showcased their versatility and continued innovation in sound design and composition. Celebrated for their dreamy melodies, meticulous production, and cinematic sensibilities, Air's influence reaches across genres, inspiring an entire generation of electronic and alternative musicians while maintaining a devoted global following.
