Just watched the Doctor Mix breakdown of Equinoxe.... so brilliant!

Ever again an album with a DEPTH and Quality like this? Chronologie was the closest he ever got to the depth and quality of Equinoxe. I've really enjoyed Oxymore - lively, inventive, different, thoughtful - but for me, Chronologie represents the last of an era that started with Oxygene in 1976. The...

This is great! thanks for sharing. My take on this: 1) Prelude is fab! I love the setup, that mix of high-tech and found-sound objects. The sculptural "objet d'art" that gets a close up at 6 mins is amazing, a sort of mix of glass and mechanicals that would not look out of place in an art ...

Wow! Thank you!

It doesn't appear to stream in the UK although the video does load, it then just hangs. And no.... short hair suits him better these days!
