I'm liking the frenghlish subtitles.

I wonder what the classic is JMJ is referring to at 1:55...

And... are they using the 12" version of Equinoxe 4 as background music? Yes they are!

Is it though? Don't tell me it's *that* big of an issue to prepare two versions of that album, put gapless in digital delivery stores, put the one with fades on streaming services...

This is highly true and possible in my opinion... 100% agree.

As I understand it was a decision made by the record-company. But yes, it wouldn't be too hard at all.

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

I think the guy that greets JMJ has just hummed the five main melody notes of Oxygene Pt 4

Maybe it's the Wersi Delta Digital DX500T Glas? :D

To be honest, I hate everything he's done since Eq. Infinity/Electronica era tours - but I can begrudgingly accept the bit in bold.

Pains me though that the nice concert releases we're getting are these one-man mimefests, over the recent tours. What gives?

It plays the same invisible notes as his other keyboards. :D

A new milestone in the Jarre DJ career.

Moog and Fairlight is not any good already?

There are also some special guests, including Tangerine Dream (on “Zero Gravity”), Jeff Mills (“The Architect”) and Armin van Burren (the closing “Stardust”). The guests bring their sound and style to the proceedings, and, as with all Jarre collaborations, it works and fits into the concept perfectly. These songs, along with the other chosen songs in the performance all come together for a beautiful celebration.
uhhh I'm getting AI vibes from that article

oh god, that’s embarrassing. The author is apparently a native English speaker but it doesn’t read like that at all.

“ The music and the visuals were astounding and musically there were some surprises along with some classic Jarre music.”

The best thing about the music, was the musicality of the music.

If anyone was wondering why I object to the AI album art, this is why - low rent and creatively bankrupt.
