Epica Oxygene and the - IMO - Godawful "Astral Projection" Remix version. Drop that and the equally risible Zero Gravity Remix, and that's a very good track list.
No, I meant he also played Epica. The actual, normal Epica, without Oxygene. In a new mix:Pat Gleeson wrote: Sat Jun 14, 2025 5:55 pmEpica Oxygene and the - IMO - Godawful "Astral Projection" Remix version. Drop that and the equally risible Zero Gravity Remix, and that's a very good track list.
The guy that reported the track I mentioned said it was IN ADDITION to the setlist.fm tracklist, which already includes Robots Don't Cry...Pat Gleeson wrote: Sat Jun 14, 2025 5:50 pmActually Robots Don't Cry was the track performed.Jote wrote: Sat Jun 14, 2025 3:13 pm Two people reported thatwas also performed.

You forgot this instrument he played during Sex in the Machine, the waterphone. This was the only special instrument at the concert:dzoolook wrote: Sat Jun 14, 2025 7:31 pm Incredible that at this hour there's still no official and accurate tracklist from last night’s concert.
Here are some thoughts on what I saw and heard from the concert—starting with the no-positive:
Visually, I find it to be a very austere and empty concept. Even Jarre seemed to have very few synths. No portable synth, no laser harp, no electronic flute. There were no changes in his position on stage during the concert either. It was already a bit obvious that Zero Gravity, Exit, and Oxygene 19 would be repeated, which I also find a bit meh... boring. I really don’t like the Oxygene 4 remix from WTTOS and Palais de l’Élysée, and even less so if he already plays the Oxy4–Epica mix at the beginning.
On the positive side:
From what little I’ve heard, Magnetic Fields 2 sounds incredible.
I really like that he does that small improvisation at the beginning of Oxygene 2.
The addition of Arpeggiator was a total surprise (although from the little I’ve seen) it sounds barely arranged from the original one.
Starting with Magnetic Fields 1 works really well.
Movement 3 is my favorite piece from Equinoxe Infinity, but I would’ve loved to hear the lead live...
I’d love to hear Equinoxe 5.
In that Italian interview, Jarre said that the most difficult part of creating this tracklist was making it coherent and turning the old tracks "fresh".dzoolook wrote: Sat Jun 14, 2025 7:31 pm Incredible that at this hour there's still no official and accurate tracklist from last night’s concert.

No, Epica Oxygene only
Huh, you're right. Cool, but I now know that I will still be surprised when I see him in JulyJarrepeggiator wrote: Sat Jun 14, 2025 8:40 pmThen is THS?
Maybe that's the surprise. Because after you heard him play Epica Oxygene, you don't expect hearing both tracks seperatly as well!Dr_Jones wrote: Sat Jun 14, 2025 8:48 pmHuh, you're right. Cool, but I now know that I will still be surprised when I see him in July
