On April 15, fresh after most Americans have received good, bad or ugly tax news from the IRS, Astralwerks will reissue the electronica album that almost all subsequent chill-out albums have been measured against, Air’s Moon Safari.
In a lavish, 3-disc set, the reissue will include remixes, radio sessions and an hour-long, Mike Mills-directed documentary Eating, Sleeping, Waiting and Playing along with what many consider to be the peak of Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoit Dunckel’s powers.
