Reviews
Scotland on Sunday wrote of Moon Safari: "Based on simple 1960s rock melodies, as lightweight as early ambient classics by The Orb or [The] KLF, the songs feature soaring string sections, funky bass-lines, space-age synth sounds and vocals distorted to drift through the easy-listening, multi-era music mix.... Says [band member] [Nicolas] Godin: "What we do is turn emotions into sound. Since no two people have precisely the same feelings, if we are successful in our task, our songs should be unique."""Air on a free string", Scotland on Sunday (Edinburgh) ISSN 09558756, 8 February 1998.Track listing
