    French electronic duo Air returns with her seventh ambient album - "Le Voyage Dans La Lune." And although we are welcomed by a fairly trip-hop "Astronomica Club", album's next track, "Seven Stars" is a decent alternative experiment - as a prelude preceded by a naturalist, indie rock "Parade".

    Ingenious in its conception as a soundtrack, weak and tedious as a standalone musical venture, an interminable experience despite its brevity.
