While the rest of their electronic music contemporaries in the late 1990s reached for dancefloor ecstacy and big room bombast, French duo Air paved an influential path with a more delicate and atmospheric sound. Taking inspiration from old school film composers and vintage synthesiser wizards like Burt Bacharach, Isao Tomita and Vangelis, they shot to success with a distinct sonic world.

Edge Of The Forest

MONTHLY
Antoine Bertin weaves together field recordings and sonifications of data he collects around the world.
Wandering in its own meditative way on the edge of science, technology and sound, the radio show explores where forests begin and when they end.
From listening to the DNA of plants in Japan, to the seismic data of the Stromboli volcano or the movements of rivers in Alaska, The Edge of the Forest seeks to share sensations and ideas that inform our understanding of the natural world, humans included.
