On Wednesday night, the duo played their debut album in full at Sidney Myer Music Bowl – and the staging perfectly captured the music’s, well, airy sound.
The atmosphere is impeccable: the members of Air stand equidistant in white, flanked by banks of synthesisers.A simple but effective light show turns them into silhouettes coiled with smoke, at least some of which isn’t weed from the audience. It’s the after-dark bits of Pink Floyd’s 1972in full, in a show billed as an Australian exclusive .
There’s some ultra-casual hoop diving – themed around building a modular frame from an instructional manual – that would make for a fun impromptu performance at any IKEA store. A grapevine lifts Jasmin Tait to intoxicating heights on swinging trapeze, and Zealea Nolte dangles enigmatically on the static version .Spliced throughout are short grabs from interviews with the artists talking about their creative processes – some fascinating, some boilerplate, some amusingly inarticulate, with a few that sound as if they’re unpaid advertising for NICA.
