Everyone who subscribes to Air’s email spam newsletter and who resides in the UK had the chance yesterday to get a sampler mp3 from the French Duo’s upcoming album Love 2, containing clips of about 4-5 or so songs – two which we’ve already heard before, admittedly. Considering the duo most likely has fans outside the UK, time to spread the Love (2). While nothing certain can be said about whether the songs measure up to heavy listening in the future, one thing’s for sure – they’re hell-bent on trying to resurrect the vibe of the gorgeous debut Moon Safari. Whether they’re successful… we’ll see.

In other Air news, the band held an online ‘listening party’ of the new album last night and thus you can probably find some hastily recorded mp3s of the songs online if you want to be a naughty leak-searcher who doesn’t mind lower quality. Then there’s also the trippy video for the ridiculously cute first single “Sing Sang Sung” which you can view here but which can’t be fancily embedded.

More bands should preview their new albums like this, I’ve always liked medleys…
