Air aren't exactly strangers to mood enhancing music (the release of "Moon Safari", their much-mooted collaboration with Sofia Coppola for the "Virgin Suicides" soundtrack, "10,000 Hz Legend", and 2004's acclaimed "Talkie Walkie", have in 5 short years solidified the Parisian duo's position as premier purveyors of meltingly good, cosmic pop), it's perhaps not surprising that they would eventually combine their talents to mix a selection of their favorite music. Dipping into by turns melancholic, ambient, soulful, mellow and downright moody classics, Air's selections make for timeless, lounge-loving, uplifing, and occasionally heart-wrenching stuff. Godin and Dunckel's "LNT" selections immediately propel you into a world as dry and as satisfying as a glass of Chateauneuf du Pap, in which time is not so much standing still as floating in space. Air time, you might call it in fact. From The Cure to Nino Rota, Elliot Smith, The Band, and Cat Power, to their own "Musica", Air's "Late Night Tales" is a musical journey not to be missed!
