★★★★☆ You can't get more unique than providing a soundtrack to a seminal 14-minute silent movie from the 1900s. While perhaps difficult to appreciate the scale of the tie-in (especially if you're under the age of 110 or weren't a fan of the Smashing Pumpkins' "Tonight, Tonight"), Air's Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoit Dunckel honor their invitation with an interpretation of cinematic thrall, stoner funk (unlikely a turn of the century invention, but "Sonic Armada" is a boss strut nonetheless) and dramatically noble short stories, audio-visualizing a pioneering piece of cinema that essentially asks them to bridge [...]
Filed under: News , Exclusive , Q + A Wendy Bevan In 1902, visionary French filmmaker Georges Méliès released 'Le Voyage Dans la Lune,' known to English-speaking audiences as ' A Trip to the Moon .' Considered the first-ever science-fiction film, the wildly inventive 16-minute silent feature follows a group of astronauts as they blaze a trail into the cosmos. After crashing their rocket into the moon's eye, they take a snooze, explore trippy [...]
As the world's first science fiction film, Georges Melies' Le Voyage Dans La Luna stunned the audiences of 1902 with state of the art techniques and unique creativity. All of the surviving copies of Le Voyage... were thought to be in black and white, it wasn't until 1993 that a colour copy was found in Barcelona. After 12 years of painstaking restoration on over 14,000 individual frames the film was successfully reconstructed last year but the producers wanted to take this a step further and attach a modern score to the renowned classic. So given their [...]

This week's album streams come in the form of Frankie Rose's "Interstellar" and Air's "Le Voyage Dans La Lune." After a couple of spins of "Interstellar" (listen here ), I can say that the album has caught my attention of the young year unlike any other. The ebb and flow of the release is the perfect tempo that perfectly captures the true essence of the vocals from Miss Frankie Rose. You can pick up "Interstellar" on 2/21 on via Slumberland . Air has contributed the music [...]
Mark Lanegan's Blues Funeral comes out today, and if you couldn't tell how excited we were to feature an exclusive album preview this past week and you somehow thrilled we were to host the Mark Lanegan Band live this morning from the Cutting Room Studios in NYC, go back and listen to the performance again later today on our Live Performances Archive and you can practically hear John Richards' head explode when Mark calls him "bro." Awesome. Though Mark Lanegan lives in sunnier southern climes now, he's definitely a legend of Northwest [...]
Para ser bien sincera, la primera vez que escuché el disco no me puse las pilas y lo puse como ruido de background mientras trabajaba. Gran error. Pasaron los minutos y ni cuenta me di cuando ya estaba sonando el The Last Romance de Arab Strap. El viernes llegué de mi casa y me puse a escuchar, ahora sí, el Le Voyage Dans La Lune como se debe, como el soundtrack para la película que revolucionó el cine y (lo digo con toda mi entereza y orgullo geek) la primera de muchas [...]

Le Voyage dans la Lune es literalmente un viaje, un paisaje sonoro que Air formuló para acompañar la versión restaurada de la cinta clásica Viaje a la Luna del director Georges Méliès -el mago del cine-. Con 11 tracks, Le Voyage dans la Lune cuenta con las voces de Au Revoir Simone y de Victoria [...]
One of the most fruitful weeks yet this year for new music releases. We're proud to feature Philadelphia's own Dr. Dog whose Be The Void is out today. We're quite excited about this album, not only because they're from Philly, but their last effort Shame Shame featured some great tracks such as "Jackie Wants A Black Eye" and "Where'd All The Time Go". Lots more to get to this week including The Twilight Sad with their creepy-titled No One Can [...]
Por Fernando Lopes Sim, às vezes, é duro ser eficiente. A proposta do Air , com Le Voyage Dans La Lune , não era simplesmente homenagear o filme de George Méliès , Viagem À Lua , de 1902. No começo de 2011, com as cópias restauradas – e algumas até colorizadas novamente, à mão – a dupla francesa foi chamada pra sonorizar os originais quatorze minutos da película. Era como fazer a trilha sonora pra um filme qualquer. Só que, obviamente, não se tratava de "um filme qualquer". [...]
We've been waiting forever for the release of V V Brown 's sophomore release, Lollipops and Politics , which is finally out this week (pictured), but that's really just scratching the surface of the great releases out this week.

We're also excited for Sharon Van Etten 's Jagjaguwar debut. in addition, Owl City has got a DVD, and Goldfrapp [...]
Somewhere between 1902 and 2001, the owners of electronica's most eclectic discography put their film score hats back on and took another trip to the moon.
I don't know about where you are, but we are having a very mild winter. Not so mild that I should have been eating at outdoor burger joint Shake Shack last night, but I was and is where I snapped the picture that is now this week's cover art. There's lots of good new music on here, including the returns of a few favorite bands. Dig in: DOWNLOAD WINTRY MIX 2.03.2012 Tracklist: 1. Burning Hearts - Into the Wilderness [...]

"Le Voyage Dans La Lune" se filtro en su totalidad desde hace unas cuantas horas y, el que se haya negado a descargar algun leak que tire la primera piedra ya que su servidor, se sintio bastante curioso en cuanto a este nuevo album de Air despues de que escuche la colaboracion de Victoria Legrand de Beach House asi como el primer sencillo oficial: " Parade ". Ahora, para serles sincero estos fueron los dos unicos tracks que habian sido de mi agrado ya que los que comenzaron a soltar tiempo despues acompañados de algunos visuales [...]
