Speaking about the upcoming tour and the album's legacy, the band stated in an exclusive interview with Billboard magazine on March 5, 2024, stating:

"Before we decided to do this tour, we went to a rehearsal room for three days to see if it was technically possible to perform the entire album. and as soon as we started to play the first notes of ‘Kelly Watch the Stars’ or ‘La Femme d’Argent,’ we had a thrill."

"We are extremely blessed to have recorded this music, and to be able to share it with the audience so long after its release is a gift of life for us. In these troubled times, it’s a nice time capsule from the last century when we were more innocent and optimistic." The band continued.

AIR remains best known for their debut album, with their subsequent recordings, such as 10 000 Hz Legend, remaining less successful than the debut. The band is also known for scoring the soundtrack to the Sofia Coppola movie, The Virgin Suicides.
