Last night, the Royal Albert Hall became a spacecraft. At the controls: Air, as they played their era-defining masterpiece Moon Safari in full to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the record.
The Parisian duo, Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît Dunckel, were dressed in immaculate white and performed from inside a bright, glowing rectangular box of video screens and lights – the command post for the show. In fact, at one point, the screens actually did transform into the deck of a spaceship as planets flew by, and they took us on a journey through their space-age lounge music.
