You mean the band AIR, and not the atmosphere I'm assuming. Other than a fleeting resemblance to the track 'La Femme D'Argent', I totally disagree. Not that sounding like AIR is a bad thing; it's just that I've always thought BoC to be much better.

Now... On the second half of Dayvan Cowboy, after it picks up there is this synth that comes in that REALLY reminds me of AIR; like a counter-melody to the guitars. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

I just thought to reverse that last week. One of my favorite reversed BoC melodies now.

Yeah. I don't listen to THCP that often - I just listened to this song a few days ago though, and thought, oh look, a reversed bit. :P

I was listening to 'Moon Safari' last night and noticed for the first time that parts of 'The Campfire Headphase' do sound similar... A lot of the same elements present in both albums.

I take back what I said before, although I still think that TCH is the substantially superior album by comparison.

SAI conjures up images of 90 degree cloudless days in wheat fields for me.
