Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum

5 is fairly awful but a lot less painful than 2, a real cheese-fest. The rest of the album is sublime though, love it, one of his best.

It's probably true-ish but regardless it's IMO one of his best albums and certainly the best live one. I think it's wonderful but wouldn't have surprised me if it had been too 'out there' for the audience to really understand.

Personally I think JMJ has lost his way. He has become a 'was' rather than a 'is'. Shame really because the fans are suffering because of the outcome. It is almost like Jarre is disappearing into the background instead of being the forerunner.

In what way are fans suffering?

To spend $millions on a free concert for such a niche musician is a tall order. They could put on a big concert festival with many current popular artists, charge people to go and get a much bigger interest and return of investment. if Jarre played Perth or anywhere it's unlikely to get a single ...

yeah, fingers crossed, don't really want to give them away.

Jarre should use this technology for his next gig!

This track is definitely the one I play the most of JMJ's work, no matter how crappy or stressed I feel it just sorts me out.

I played it in its entirety at my wedding as the guests arrived!

Yes, but it's not Jarre's fault, I'm just not a kid anymore.

It's fractal music so theoretically it should last forever without ever repeating.

Just need the algorithm to generate the MIDI data and leave it running.

When I was a teen JMJ was the man, but then being a bit fanatical about an artist is the sort of thing a teen would do.

I was growing up and discovering my own music, not really one for the stuff you'd hear on the radio and becoming disillusioned with Rock and Metal, Jarre was a breakthrough that ...

They'll have a British act for sure for that.

Keyboard warriors and being overly sensitive are what makes the Internet!
