My first association was..."prison"!

Yay, thx Françis and GJ
Great to see he works on it, but no analog synths ?

Don't cry for analog synths always! Its possible to compose good music with soft synths, with Roland V-Synth for example! That times have passed away! The time is going...Jean Michel did it well that he changed his stuff! Ok, VCS was great, but now there are other times!

I'm eagerly waiting his new album, we will hear his new sounds, new direction in compositions!

[Nico_Noyau]

Yeah, of course, but analogs are great, I prefered when he had analogs

[GeeJee]

Doors or windows, hope we aren't talking about THIS estudio:

Softsynths can make sounds but they are so damn borring because it isn't hardware. Knowing some music is made with some great hardware synthesizers are lot more cool.

It's a Nokia 6600 and on the Theremin isn't-it dangerous to take an electronical thing ?!

If it's dangerous I do not know, but it would be cool if they've find a way to play with it or trigger the theremin...

[jp8000]

Wohoo.... I have nokia 6600 too

[Mike Earsen]

Good news.
By the way, why VC1 for singing? It's just a D50 card. I hope they meant VC2 (Vocal Designer)

[Robi]

i really would like to see an intrument list in the album credit!

I hope JMJ will return to the MUSIC LIFE with this album, to music channels again with vidos! I hope this will be a "return-album" !!! And his music will find lot of new fans!

[Hopsinka]

My first association was..."prison"!

JMJ coming out of the prison. Getting back his jeans, shirt, shoes, watch and theremin.

You are under arrest for something.


I can't think of a good joke, mainly because I'm P***** off

This is probably old stuff but I still have to ask;
Is it Francis with the laser harp in this clip of a repetition for RV II?

Yes it is, it is from a rehearsal where Francic is taking JMJ's position and JMJ is watching how the show will look like. I have seen a similar situation from another JMJ show.

"For today JMJ is testing some news Keyboards...We talk each days together about some new ideas for the next album.
I hope soon to be in his studio to beguin at last a new musical adventure!
My dream would be to find again the fantastic moments passed with my Partenaire in the Croissy studio searching until early in the morning some news sounds ,some new arrangments ...Without think about to be "in the musical style of the year" ,just leave our inspiration to be the master!
I'm ready for that and ....wait for him........."
