Air - Playground Love L'histoire de Air débute dans les années 1980 au lycée Jules Ferry de (More) L'histoire de Air débute dans les années 1980 au lycée Jules Ferry de Versailles, où étudient Jean-Benoît Dunckel et Nicolas Godin. Aidés d'Etienne de Crécy, d'Alex Gopher et de Xavier Jamaux, ils forment Orange, « highschool band » éphémère qui ne laissera aucune trace discographique de son existence (ce qui ne l'empêchera pas de devenir culte, tant ses membres, via leurs carrières respectives, ont depuis connu une grande influence sur la scène pop française, voire internationale). <br /> <br />Le bac en poche, Nicolas Godin se lance dans des études d'architecture et se voit obligé de délaisser un peu la musique. Pourtant, en 1995, il compose un titre instrumental en hommage à Le Corbusier, Modulor, qu'il présente à Virgin music. Le morceau est retenu pour la compilation Source Lab de cette même année et connaît un certain succès. <br /> <br />De son côté, Jean-Benoît Dunckel étudie les mathématiques (la légende veut qu'il en soit même devenu professeur). Le succès de Modulor semble ouvrir une voie dans le paysage musical français, et les deux complices s'attaquent ensemble à la réalisation de quelques morceaux sous le nom de Air. Ces morceaux seront d'ailleurs, par la suite, regroupés dans le EP Premiers symptômes : on y retrouve quelques classiques, tels que Casanova 70 ou J'ai dormi sous l'eau, qui préfigurent ce que sera le son de Air à ses débuts (influences pop années 1960, ambiances cinématographiques, obsession pour le Moog, accords évoluant autour de la même note de basse...). À l'époque, le groupe se fait connaître en multipliant les remixes, notamment pour Ollano (groupe de Marc Collin où on retrouve également Helena Noguerra et Xavier Jamaux). <br /> <br />Leur premier album, Moon Safari, sort en 1998 et connaît un grand succès grâce à un son original et totalement nouveau pour l'époque. En effet leurs sons électroniques mèlent voix (retravaillée par ordinateur), instruments et samples, mais restent doux et calmes. <br /> <br />Ensuite, la BO de Virgin Suicides impose la reconnaissance, ils sont désormais présents dans tous les domaines. Ils sont d'ailleurs devenus d'étroits collaborateurs de Sofia Coppola, travaillant sur chacun de ses trois films sortis : Virgin Suicides, Lost in Translation et Marie-Antoinette. On les trouve dans la publicité, comme avec Electronic Performers. En 2003, « City reading » illustre les textes de l’écrivain italien Alessandro Barrico. <br /> <br />En 2001, la sortie de l'album 10,000 Hz Legend marque une influence internationale avec une collaboration avec Beck. <br /> <br />Connu maintenant depuis longtemps dans l'électro française, Air travaille avec de nombreux musiciens comme Etienne de Crécy, Alex Gopher. Ils sont aussi proches d'autres artistes comme Fuzati. Ils participent à l'élaboration du nouvel album de Charlotte Gainsbourg en le produisant en 2005. <br /> <br />En février 2005, le duo recoit le titre de chevalier dans l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres [1]. <br /> <br />Un nouvel album est actuellement en préparation. <br /> <br />I'm a high school lover, and you're my favorite flavor. <br />Love is all, all my soul. <br />You're my Playground Love. <br /> <br />Yet my hands are shaking. <br />I feel my body [remain tense?], no matter, I'm on fire. <br />On the playground, love. <br /> <br />You're the piece of gold the flushes all my soul. <br />Extra time, on the ground. <br />You're my Playground Love. <br /> <br />Anytime, anyway, <br />You're my Playground Love.

Disinformation vs Strange Attractor "National Grid" 1 Disinformation and Strange Attractor perform "National Grid" with live mains and static (More) Disinformation and Strange Attractor perform "National Grid" with live mains and static electricity, Corsica Studios, London, 19 Nov 04 - at the launch of "Techgnosis" by Erik Davis (the event also featured writers Mike Jay, Julian Vayne and Kodwo Eshun). "National Grid" was first performed at Blast First's club Disobey on 10 Oct 1996, exhibited at The Museum of Installation, London July 1997 (where Disinformation performed alongside Martin Creed) and published on LP and CD by Ash International in 1996 and 1997.
"Pulsing sub-bass audio suggests associations with the most primal anthropomorphic element in music - the rhythms of the human heart, with foetal and infant hypnagogic sense memories, with seismic activity, the rumble of thunder (Jimi Hendrix claimed that his earliest childhood memory was of a thunderstorm), and even with war. Disinformation's National Grid is a sub-bass installation sourced either from the ambient VLF field radiated by electricity pylons and mains circuits, or, more recently, directly from the output cables of mains transformers. National Grid offers live physical evidence of environmental electromagnetic pollution, a demonstration of the intrinsic musical properties of alternating current, beat-frequency effects, the architectural acoustics of its own exhibition space, a formula for the realisation and suppression of Futurist sound art, a cathartic response to the pressures of urban life, a monolithic soundtrack for the creative genius of electrification and for the bitter conflicts between government and organised labour for political control over supplies to the nation's electrical infrastructure" - "National Grid" / "Stargate" / "Theophany" Ash 3.2 LP copyright 1996.
"National Grid" appears on the Galerie fur Zeitgennossische Kunst (Leipzig) "New Forms" and on The Hayward Gallery "Sonic Boom" exhibition catalogue double CDs, curated by Carsten Nicolai and David Toop. Two remixes of "National Grid" by Wire guitarist Bruce Gilbert appear on the "Antiphony" 2xCD, and a version recorded with Evan Parker appears as "London's Overthrow" on the "Al Jabr" remix CD.
"National Grid" has been exhibited and performed at ZKM (Karlsruhe), the Volksbuhne (Berlin), Fabrica (Brighton), The Royal College of Art, The Lux, the strong rooms 2 stories below The Foundry (all London), the engine room of the trawler Arctic Corsair in Hull, the 13th century chapel at Kettle's Yard and at The Junction (both Cambridge), The Dom (Moscow), and in an underground nuclear warfare command centre near Troywood (Anstruther, Fife).
The Volksbuhne and ZKM presentations were organised by sound artist Christina Kubisch's husband and manager Dieter Scheyhing, with the "National Grid" installations since having a massive (and totally unacknowledged) influence on Christina Kubisch's much later "Electrical Walks". An "Immerse" magazine interview with artist CM von Hausswolff included Disinformation's Disobey concert in a list of events organised by Hausswolff, when Disinformation has never had anything to do with him, although Hausswolff went on to exhibit virtually identical work. Contrary to the impression given by their leaflet, "National Grid" was never a Camden Arts Centre "special commission", and contrary to the impression given by their "Sound Practice" CD, South London Gallery NEVER owned the copyright to ANY version of "National Grid".
The new Strange Attractor vs. Disinformation version of "National Grid" was first performed live at The Royal Institution on 22 May 2004, on the same desk on which Michael Faraday demonstrated some of the most important electrical discoveries in history (in an event curated by writer Tom McCarthy); at Corsica Studios, The Asylum, Cargo, Westbourne Studios (all London), Hull Art Lab, The Junction (Cambridge) and at The Centre for Life (Newcastle) as part of the AV Festival.
Sleevenotes for the Disinformation CD "R&D" (1996) describe ideas that evolved into "National Grid" - "Tuning down into the lowest reaches of the radio spectrum, particularly in night's shadow of the solar wind, the listener enters a world of diverse phenomena, opening an acoustic window on a world alive with electrical activity. VLF whistlers from lightning and thermonuclear EMP ricochet along field lines of the magnetosphere, bouncing between hemispheres of the globe; storms crackle: biostatics whisper, hiss and sigh: televisions scream: pylons and power loops drone and roar: military signals, the musical pulses of navigation systems, timecodes, and coded data broadcast deep beneath the sea. Time and space divided, live 'vivisection' of particle physics, voices, map lines, weapons, mirrors hidden by the illusion of quiet." Ash 2.9 CD copyright 1996.
"R&D2" (1997) also featured VLF radio and electrical noise from the sun, industrial motors, arc welding, photographic flash systems and metro / trains.
