Sweedish music with a French name

In case you're like me and you enjoy playing single songs on loop occasionally... you'll enjoy this one. It's kind of like the song that doesn't end. The fade out matches with the fade in perfectly. I heard it on during my lunch break the other day. Fell in love with the track and downloaded the album. The album is actually quite weak in my opinion. I found myself skipping lots of songs. Apparently my opinion isn't the only one out there as Pitchfork gave the album an 8.6 (and Pitchfork isn't all that giving with the ratings). Maybe it's the type of album that grows on you after several listens. I may never find out. Anyway, the song is called Collapsing at Your Doorstep by Air France.

It's a great track. I'd call it kind of ambient/electronic/indie. But wikipedia says the band's sound has been described as "post-rave bliss", "beach foam pop"and "Baleric disco" (in case you don't know what the word Balearic means, it pertains to the Baleric Islands just off the coast of Spain... weird).
