kory I’ve never seen (or, frankly, heard of) this OVA
Really good shit. Huge inspiration on creators such as Suda 51.
I am now an old geezer and I want to hear things from when I was young. Here is the legendary two parts set sent by Air to BBC Radio One for their Essential Mix program, at the height of the band’s and the radio’s respective popularities and imprint on popular culture, right when French Touch exploded and London came back in the zeitgeist of pop culture. They were asked for a two hours mix and delivered four.
Air – Essential Mix (Part 1) (March 8, 1998)
Air – Essential Mix (Part 2) (March 15, 1998)
Probably one of the first “moments” of music being shared enthusiastically on the Internet with that new fancy “.MP3” format. The mix itself isn’t high quality compared to pro stuff like Daft Punk or Justice but the selection is top notch.
