Vegyn revisits Air's Moon Safari from beginning to end.
In a daring crossover of genres and eras, British producer and electronic artist Joe Thornalley, known as Vegyn, reimagines Air's iconic 1998 debut album Moon Safari. Vegyn came to prominence thanks to his work with the likes of Frank Ocean and Travis Scott and has made a name for himself as a forward-thinking producer who blends lush, atmospheric soundscapes with experimental beats and a sense of unpredictability. By remixing Moon Safari, Vegyn brings his unique vision to the French duo's beloved ambient-pop masterpiece, infusing it with a fresh, contemporary energy.
Air's Moon Safari was groundbreaking in its marriage of dreamy synths, groovy bass lines, and lush melodies, setting the tone for late '90s electronic music and influencing countless artists in the years that followed. Tracks like "Sexy Boy," "All I Need," and "La Femme d'Argent" became synonymous with the smooth, chilled-out vibe of the era. In Vegyn's hands, these tracks retain the essence of the originals while pushing into new territories. Vegyn’s remix approach is less about recreating the past than about evolving it. The result - 'Blue Moon Safari’ feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking, a reimagining that gives this timeless record a contemporary twist.
Vegyn's "Moon Safari" rework is revealed in a new tracklist and takes shape on a coloured blue vinyl, wrapped in a transparent blue sleeve.
Air have recently celebrated the 25th anniversary of "Moon Safari" by playing their legendary opus live for the first time: 77 shows across Europe, the US/Canada, Australia, Latin America and Asia in the most prestigious venues sold out in no time. Victim of this huge success, the release of Vegyn's 'Blue Moon Safari' will be accompanied by Air's 3rd international tour leg starting end of March 2025.
