I was glued to the Olympics over the past couple of weeks. Paris put on an amazing show which, along with London in 2012, are my two favourite games evah! And the beauty of both of those events is that they had to win over a sceptical public before even starting. Anyway, here’s a bit of Gallic groove for you all. It’s the hottest day of the year so far, so something with the word ‘soleil’ in the title feels like a good fit. So Air, one of the standard bearers of the mid nineties French sound, it’s your turn. Straddling ambient and downtempo (trip hop innit), this still sounds as timeless as it did when I first picked up on it being played back on Radio Nova in my roomy Parisian pad. It’s cool daddy O.
