Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars) 4.5 stars

5 stars Very moody.
This album delves far into the deepest, darkest corners of our psyches and dresses those elements up in the glossy melodic electronica pop that Air is most famous for. When you listen to this album, all of those demons surface in your emotions and face you as you listen. This is not a happy album, unlike Air's debut, "Moon Safari", which was jovial as well as experimental. It's also slower, rarely if ever coming out of a slow tempo. An interesting observation somebody, I forget who, made was that Air is the perfect band to make movie soundtracks out of. After listening to this album, I feel inclined to believe that person. What an interesting evolution for a band that makes such interesting music. Worthy for fans, but don't expect constant "WOW"-ing. You'll feel more like "Omigawrsh, WHAT HAPPENED in that song?"

4 stars How do you say genius in french?
All of their albums have wowed me and this one is no different. Another reviewer was right in saying it is subtler than their other albums and the first listen I wasn't very impressed but now I listen to it constantly. Mer du Japon while having simple and repetitive lyrics is an infectious and beautiful song and has been stuck in my head for ages. I love it.

4 stars Not something that will blow you away
This record requires multiple listens to discover its high points. On first listen no track really stands out. It is quite unlike their previous records. It is subtler and more of a complete record. Not their best but not bad.

Air Moon Safari CD  (1998)

Pocket Symphony album
CD $12.15  4.4 stars Audio Samples Definitive Album
Principally recorded at Around The Golf studio and Gang Studio, Paris, France. Their trans-Atlantic notoriety may have come amidst compilations of French house and electronic scenes, but Nicolas Godin and JB Dunckel are not just another pair of Gallic beat-miners. Like DJs and studio wizards, the duo known as Air does construct their records pastiche-style; but instead of unleashing dancefloor-friendly "tracks", they come up with mellow abstractions for retro-minded chill-out rooms, flaunting their analog instrumentation and love for make-out melodies every step of the way. MOON SAFARI, Air's full-length debut, is like a fuzzy, blissful daydream in which a glowing ambiance pervades over a crossroads of '60s French pop, '70s Philly soul and '80s Eurodisco. Rarely does the tempo reach mid, and when it does ("Kelly Watch The Stars" and "Le Voyage de Penelope"), it's on the strength of funky synth-pop grooves. Overall, their sounds are rarely less than kaleidoscopic, enveloping the listener in happy, high-IQ muzak. If it sounds somewhat disposable, it's because all good pop should. It is the fact that one can't leave Air's aural confections behind ...

Chills Kaleidoscope World CD  (1990) (Import) New Zealand

Pocket Symphony CD music
CD $20.45
KALEIDOSCOPE WORLD contains 10 bonus tracks and represents everything the band recorded through early 1986, including all of the LOST EP, and the I LOVE MY LEATHER JACKET/THE GREAT ESCAPE 12" KALEIDOSCOPE WORLD, The Chills' 18-track compilation culled from The Chills early and mid-'80s EPs and singles, is highlighted by the song "Pink Frost." The Chills' Martin Phillipps mixes up melodic pop with elements of garage rock and punk, creating songs with a sweet melancholy all their own. Phillipps has always been the focus of the Chills, writing and singing the band's songs. His group has also rivaled Menudo in its sheer number of personnel changes. In a just world, the Chills would have sold just as many records. KALEIDOSCOPE WORLD showcases the shifting line-ups and many moods of the early to mid-'80s Chills. "Rolling Moon" captures a mood of shambling joy, its simple, repeated keyboard riff sounding like a distant caravan crossing New Zealand's big-sky country. "Pink Frost" is undoubtedly one of the Chills' two or three finest songs, an eerie tale of finding one's lover dead and being stricken with waves of icy panic. Phillipps's ghostly voice floats over glacial, plucked chords, its elegance and restraint only adding to the menace. "I Love My Leather Jacket" could have been written for the wake of "Pink Frost'"s dead lover. The Chills' pumped-up fuzz guitars and ...

Lcd Soundsystem Sound Of Silver CD  (2007)

Pocket Symphony music CDs
CD $9.69  4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
As wryly noted on LCD Soundsystem's debut 2002 single, "Losing My Edge," in the underground music arms race, aging hipsters are losing ground against young upstarts who are (perhaps) unaware of their own influences. And if influences are the stuff with which post-millennial musicians are made, Murphy has trumped us all. Touching on reference points ranging from disco, krautrock, Bowie, house, and post-punk, to singer-songwriter types, SOUND OF SILVER is a veritable catalog of left-field cool. Leading off with the slow-boil, hypnotic opener, "Get Innocuous"--which sounds a bit like a reprise of "Losing My Edge" crossed with Kraftwerk's "The Robots"--the album moves from dance-floor stormers to plaintive piano numbers without batting an eye. On "North American Scum," Murphy lampoons the often mistaken idea that LCD Soundsystem is a U.K. act; his nasal vocal echoing Jonathan Richman as he declares "for those of you who think we're from England--we're not." As humorously self-effacing as he is, SOUND OF SILVER also shows Murphy's growth as a songwriter. On the album's closer "New York, I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down," he laments the passing of the old New York, "To the cops who are bored once they've run out of crime/New York you're perfect don't change a thing." It's a fitting tribute that holds up against the countless other great songs written about the Big Apple. James Murphy is well-known as half of ...

Sammy Davis, Jr Ultimate Rat Pack Collection: Live And Swingin' CD  (2003)

Pocket Symphony music CDs
CD $18.25  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Recorded live at The Villa Venice Night Club, Chicago, Illinois between November 26 & December 2, 1962. Includes liner notes by Bill Zehme. In 2001, THE RAT PACK LIVE AT THE SANDS was released, a live album from the early 1960s capturing the onstage antics of notorious cohorts Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., and Dean Martin. Two years later, THE ULTIMATE RAT PACK COLLECTION picks up where its predecessor left off. Disc One features a different live recording from the same era, capturing the trio in all their martini-swilling glory. The second disc is a DVD of another performance from a few years later. Even though the video finds the Rat Pack nearing the end of its tether in 1965, the chemistry and onstage dynamism is just as remarkable. Both discs feature the three singers performing both alone and together, and engaging in plenty of clowning around with each other. The DVD is heavier on classic Sinatra tunes, but the first disc has even more Dean-and-Frank schtick. That said, the ...
