Yay!

Music from new album...?

[Nico_Noyau]

I don't think so, for two reasons :

- I don't think the arabian orchestra will be able to play a track which has never been heard, we have to listen to the original version before a remixed version ;
- I don't think it'll be a good idea we will have more and more rumours about tracks, we have better to discover all the album at once instead of one track

But it is only IMHO

[Robi]

You may say something!

[GeeJee]

They also played different versions of Metamorphoses' tracks before the album was out.

[Velodynamic]

Who said the orchestra is going to play on every tracks?
Why do they have to play a remix if it's a new track?
My guess would be the single that Jarre was planning to release in december...just as a bonus. (Only a very wild guess.)

[Christophe]

Thanks for the info, Francis! One of my favourite tracks are played there (Hey Gagarin)...

Greetzzz...

[Jakob BC]

Great to see that some classics even though they are from Metamorphoses are going to be on the tracklist.
About the differen tracks before releases, I think Bells from Egypt was cool.

But Francis wrote in the post that they play ...the "HITS" !

i guess he revealed the new album tracks.

[Nico_Noyau]

I guess he meant Oxygène 4, Oxygène 2, Equinoxe 4 (maybe Equinoxe 5 !!!), Light My Sky, Chronologie 2 (I think), Rendez-Vous 2 (for sure), Aero, GoL (all the Gdansk/Beijing tracklist actually)

But when will the single be released ? They said December ! Maybe this concert will be an announcement for this single and the forthcomming album !
I'm pretty sure they'll sell firsts copies of the album in Merzouga the day of the concert and I'm pretty sure the release date of the single will be the same day

I can always hope But maybe tracks of the single are already finished

I think the HITS are tracks such as Oxygene 4, Equinoxe 4, Rendez-Vous 4, Aero, Aerology, Souvenir Of Chine and you name it...

[Robi]

I'm pretty sure they'll sell firsts copies of the album in Merzouga the day of the concert and I'm pretty sure the release date of the single will be the same day

Why are you so sure?

[Nico_Noyau]

I don't know, a month is short and 2 things are expected, so we can imagine they can be linked together, it can be rather good, a little touch of new things of a concert, to permit it to not be like Gdansk or Beijing...

[Robi]

I'm so waiting that single...! Not to speak about the album!!
