Re: Jean-Michel Jarre's Christmas Spectacle to Celebrate 400th Anniversary of the Château de Versailles

Loving the invisible keyboard he's playing at the start of the Making Of video. Bet that was expensive.

Re: Jean-Michel Jarre's Christmas Spectacle to Celebrate 400th Anniversary of the Château de Versailles

sounded like it was virtually all playback of album tracks, so unless the visuals were great, I won't miss it. Did like the new Oxygene 4 - what little I heard of it - and Industrial Revolution - a personal favourite - always goes down well. Ironic that 'Falling Down' played just as the error messag...

Re: Jean-Michel Jarre's Christmas Spectacle to Celebrate 400th Anniversary of the Château de Versailles

Banner just appeared on the official Jarre site saying "Unfortunately there has been a challenge with the YouTube Stream of the Versailles 400 concert for tonight. It will not go live as planned at 23:30CET. We will notifify you as soon as it’s up in the next couple of days. It will then stay l...

Re: Jean-Michel Jarre's Christmas Spectacle to Celebrate 400th Anniversary of the Château de Versailles

It does, but it keeps glitching every 10-20 seconds, and keeps jumping back and playing the same 10-20 seconds up to the glitch. Did I read it wrong, or did he say the Youtube link would be posted AFTER the show?

It couldn’t play CDs no, well, not unless you ripped them first.

Re: Oxymoreworks LP/CD on 03-11-2023

Anyone found this available for pre-order in the UK?

I can find it on Amazon Germany, nowhere else. Is this not getting a UK release?

Re: Creative DAP Jukebox (1997)

I had one these DAP jukeboxes - a standard one, not the Jarre model - it was hell on batteries, weighed only slightly less than me, and would set off every shop-lifting alarm if I walked through the doorway with it playing. On the plus side, it sounded amazing, carried most of my music collection in...

Re: Paris La Defense: Japanese radio broadcast?

Dunno if I'm remembering wrong, but I have a memory that at the end of Souvenir, which has images of bicycles moving about the screens, some tanks roll over them at the very end - as the closing solo played. This was not long after Tianamen Square, as I recall. That isn't in the video release though...

Re: The Concerts In China

Listened to this on Apple Music today. Found it an improvement on the last version, with much improved, punchier bass and better stereo separation. Almost had to get down with my bad self during MF2. But Souvenir? oh dear, that sounds bl**dy terrible, like someone is constantly twiddling with the fa...

Re: The Concerts In China

Unlikely - I had an email this morning from Sony from the official Jarre mailing list plugging the upcoming release - and it says "The track list mirrors the original version of the album." And as MF1 has always been missing, so I expect it will be missing here too. Also, iTunes has the al...

Re: The Concerts In China

So, nothing new added? MF1 still missing, I’m guessing? No Equinoxe 5, which was in the video release? Or anything from Oxygene - which he did play during the shows?

Re: Radiophonie vol. 12 (11/2/2022)

Does it contain the previous album? Vol.10 included Vol.9 as the first disc.

Is it multiple variations on the same tune, as previously?

And in the words of the late great Douglas Adams, “Share And Enjoy”

Re: Oxymore. January 21, 22, 23 2022

Just listened to Oxymore for the first time - and first impression is hmm, I see why he released Amazonia rather this - as I think Amazonia was better. Amazonia is quite a bit more musical than Oxymore, which sounds like a lot of barely organised noise. Maybe that was the point though. Definitely an...

Re: Oxymore. January 21, 22, 23 2022

Unless I've read this thread wrong, one of the shows will be broadcast live tomorrow. Failing that, we all smile nicely at Dr Jones, or wait for the official release. After all, didn't Jarre say in a video on New Year, that he would have new material for us this year? Maybe Oxymore is it, or the fir...
