Limited 5CD boxset in a deluxe soft-touch case with spot varnish finish.
Pete Namlook, one of the most influential figures in the history of electronic music, passed away in 2012, leaving behind a vast sonic legacy. Yet Air remains his most poetic, organic, and emotionally resonant project. Created between 1993 and 2006, the Air series is a five-part symphony of ambient, ethnic, jazz, neoclassical, and cosmic electronic elements - now presented for the first time as a complete 5CD boxset.
CD 1: Air I — You (1993) - Ethereal French female vocals, the breath of the wind, slow-evolving synthesizer waves, and a soft touch of melancholy.
CD 2: Air II — Travelling Without Moving (1994) - Eleven untitled chapters flowing from zero BPM up to 130 BPM with live percussion and field recordings.
CD 3: Air III — Secret Heritage (1996) - Deeper integration of ethnic instruments, piano, string textures, and Eastern melodies.
CD 4: Air IV — Elle A Du Shell (1999) - Caribbean jazz, electronic bebop, deep ambient, space trance, and ethno-electronics intertwined.
CD 5: Air V — Jeux Dangereux (2006) - The final and most personal chapter: a meditation on impossible love, light, and farewell.
"Air is not just music. It is a state of mind. A space. A travelling without moving. A timeless classic."
