New Air Album Pocket Symphony Coming In March
On March 6, armchair electronica heroes Nicolas Godin and Jean-Benoît "Darkel" Dunckel return to our iPods with 12 new tunes produced by Nigel Godrich. Jarvis Cocker and Neil Hannon cameo.
For Symphony the French duo added new toys to its collection of Moogs and vocoders: According to Astralwerks, Nic has been taking koto and shamisen lessons from "an Okinawa master." Wax on, Godin-san!
And if you're a Mike Mills fan ... well, you're out of luck. But the visuals for the Pocket campaign will be handled by Xavier Veilhan, and he does cool rhinoceros art.
The band will play some European dates in March, then hit the states in May, where we'll be in the front row trying to hand them Stereogum t-shirts.

Who is this "we" anyway? Show yourself, blogger. Transparency is better for accountability.
Is there a Stereogum news reading programme that churns out these reports? If so, please correct the area of coding that deals in The Karate Kid references. It's Godin-san, not son.
Mr. Miyagi does not eff white bitches.
