JMJ must have had every intention to project images, but changed his mind. Laser lights and images would have been too much together. It would have been one or the other. I asked Fiona about this, because when some people realized there would be no image projections, they started talking about want...
In the article, Jarre explains why he didn't include projections. He said that he didn't want the concert to feel like you were sitting at home watching television. That's what he has said before too, which led me to my conclusion (which is in my report). That, coupled with actually seeing the conc...

For this tour the Digisequencer was replaced by the computer sequencer.
Jarre told me during my interview with him that the reason they went for a computer sequencer in stead was that a) The sequencer was just too heavy and fragile and b) it broke down the week before the tour

I wish the set list could have been a bit less predictable, but the whole package was just wonderful. I managed, with the help of Ras Bolding. to get hold of Louis, Jarre's tour manager. Let me di...
Jean-Michel Jarre is as of this moment being interviewed on NRK P3 (http://www.nrk.no/p3/) where they are playing through the entire Oxygene album, with his comments in between. I didn't start to listen to it until very late in the broadcast, so I don't know if they interviewed him any before they s...
w00t... This is good news... Whenever dreyfus is taking someone offline we can now just point them to this video -where the guys at jijbuis can see "the man himself" say it's OK... This gives many something useful to get their video's on-line again.. I hope this is enough proof for them t...
I downloaded (and paid for) a pdf of the the interview with Jarre from the February issue of Sound on Sound. Since I feel so generous I decided to share it with you all.
