Air 10 000 Hz Legend (20th Anniversary with 5.1 & Dolby Atmos Mixes)

And don't forget Talkie Walkie, that's a great album too!

Back in the day that was released with a DVD but a performance only stereo disc

 

[Electric Moo]

These guys were a great band!

+1 for Moon Safari

And the volkswagon van with the rocket engines, on the cover!

I gave this album a listen yesterday, and while I agree with most of you that it isn't my favorite Air album, I do think it will make an incredible surround sound presentation if it is done well. My hope is that Air will release all their albums with a properly done surround mix, that would be truly amazing!

I've never heard of them, but I listened to some on Tube. I really dig this. Ordered...

 

[GabeL]

May I ask where everyone is ordering from/best price option for USA? thanks

 

[GOS]

I’d be surprised if any US vendors carry this.

In Canada, Amazon has it.

I didn’t know this album. I like this kind of music and I think it will be very enjoyable in atmos

 

[GabeL]

Ordered from Bullmoose! Here's hoping they issue similar reissues for Talkie Walkie and their soundtrack for the Virgin Suicides

I couldn't find it on Amazon.ca. Could you post a link? Thanks!

Agreed that Moon Safari is a better album. I did see them on tour for this album and have to say some of the songs from 10,000 Hz translated much better live than on album. I remember enjoying "Electronic Performers" much more live. It was their opener for the show and it felt like the whole club was shaking when the song started.

I admittedly bought this album back in the day and then later sold it being disappointed after being a big fan of Moon Safari. Of course you throw a 5.1 mix my way and I will quickly give the album a reassessment!

Also, has anyone in the US tried to pre-order this from Amazon Canada? I tried to pre-order and got this error message:
"This item cannot be shipped to your selected delivery location. Please choose a different delivery location. "

Edit: Never mind, I decided to go with Bull Moose, as suggested previously in the thread by GabeL.

For those that have pre-ordered this, you will be pleased. The ATMOS mix of this via Apple/Tidal is exceptionally good. The album is what I would label as avant-garde electronica and the mixer has adopted the same approach extracting surround sound effects that are pushing the boundaries of this format. (Very original approach yielding some surround effects , that I haven’t noticed before. A true work of sonic art.)
Very impressed and will probably look at buying the disc version.

I think this mix is up there with the likes of Yello and Kraftwerk.
