Surfing on a Rocket

A characteristically gorgeous slice of dreamy electro-pop (though perhaps slightly more tense than the supremely languid, blissed-out epics of yore), ‘Surfing’ is one of the standout tracks of Air’s excellent third album, Talkie Walkie. Choice artwork, too: Albert Einstein’s face clad in half a skull mask, superimposed on a skateboarder’s body and strategically positioned against a collage of psychedelic clouds. Youth Defence, take note – we’re strongly suggesting this as the cover for your next promotional leaflet.
