Bells, Hey Gagarin and Light My Sky would have worked wonders. I would have dropped the "chaotic" Variation 3 and played an emotional Millions of Stars..

What else? Vintage was the best track he played as it was the most modern: the crowd loved it. It would have been cool of him to dedicate Geometry of Love to the newly weds too. How about Neimo getting up on stage with Jarre to perform the rock remix of Aerology? That's a hot track! Maybe one of the remixed Oxygene 8 and 10 tracks from Odyssey Through o2? Very danceable and Jarre loves playing the "DJ".

Peace.
absolutely exactly what i was going to write!! they totally ignored Metamorphoses ! And I hate it! At least one of the tracks you stated could be great.



and now a very similar concept here



but don't you agree it was much better visually with all the images and not only lights
I'm sorry but Metamorphoses is soo "not" Jean Michel Jarre. C'est La Vie is just a crazy arabic song that sounds like it was made hundred years ago. ;)
Besides I think that we have Joachim Gerraud to thanks for a lot in that album. :lol:
Anyway even if he had pulled it off with some more tracks from his 2000- era we wouldn't have been satisfied because then we could've ranted about the way he played the tracks.
Some would've even prefered it to be playback and if it was, many others would've ranted over that too.
So I'd guess that it's an impossible task making up for all the Jarre fans at the same time, there will always be something to critisize. The Monaco version of Equinoxe part 4 could've been just perfect if JMJ didn't smashed it to pieces with those darn cymbals. It's just an opinion too and it could go on and on.... :pwned:
What many of us though seem to agree about is that JMJ's concerts really needs some totally new tracks. Right now it's just a "history repeating" or in some cases a "history raping".
"The worst thing in any form of art is to be betrayed by your own habits."

True, but that's basically the fun of arguing here !

It is in the database, I amplified it a bit to 0 db because it was not very loud.
But is also misses pieces, you hear the extra sounds even better than on TV, and a few times you have a jingle in it "This is JMJ on Radio Monaco".
Maybe it is better to use the Audiorip from RTBF, which is also in the database.

In response to Mr. TRAN REMY: of course, your message is very violent and I hope it has the merit of sincerity! Internet is still an area of ​​freedom of speech, thank you God But several points are really questionable.
If you consider that running a sequencer on stage that required long hours of programming and also uses a sense of harmony and rhythm, is the backing track, then yes there is some "live off".
To escape the ease in which many fall benefit of electronic music, we worked for months with my Partenaire.Il even made the crazy bet to get on tour these wonderful instruments that are totally dedicated to the scene. We could have the play: LAPTOP and fixed attitudes which make it look like some electronic music at a funeral mass.
My partner did not choose the facility that its status as an international artist could permettre.Oui him there was a problem with the laser harp and is one of the most difficult instruments to master outside (invisible beams because the smoke vanishes with the wind*, the interference of lights rayonsetc ...) So if there was an instrument to play back it would really play this one.
It overlooks the whole scene when he could have this attitude of some interpretations of electronic music, closed faces, their eyes on Onboard Com rcomme if they had lost their entire families or had received the entire Christmas bonus Lara Fabian live!
Monaco was a great challenge and we need you to know that the whole scenery was designed, created, even the smallest movement by my lights Partenaire.Quand we musicians, after a night of repeats on the site we reach our hotel , completely empty, JMJ is on hand to repeat and repeat again the whole show.
So when you write it mocks the fans, let me not to follow you.
Then Mr. TRAN REMY I will end this message by saying two things:
A wall for me is sometimes what separates two peoples, is also a medium of expression, and unfortunately also a place where people relieve themselves ...
And to conclude the sentence of a Chinese philosopher:
When the wise points at the moon, the fool looks only at the finger.
No hard feelings, FRANCIS RIMBERT


*I say so...
What is interesting is that in Kanta's video you see JMJ run back towards the Synthex in his set-up. He must have thought, at first, it was his synth playing up. But then you see him switch the octive pedal a couple of times. But it did kick back up again. The laser harp is certainly a tempermental peice of gear.

True, he could have done a 95% playback show like he did in Monaco 2005. 8)

That comment has really wound me up, what a pathetic thing to say. You really don't appreciate that every Jarre album has been different from one to the other, THAT sooo Jean Michel Jarre.

Everyone hear agrees that Zoolook was one his finest albums, well Meta is just a progression of that style IMO.

I quite enjoy Meta so don't knock it.

People, finally I can write were. I arrived yestarday from French Riveira. It was a great trip to me. I saw my first concert. For me, the laser harp crap, is ok. All thing were magic. I'd oportunnity to met my friends that I wrote for years or decades but never seen. Gleen from Norway, Dr.Jones and Kanta from here. Cedric from France, Sergio from Spain, Max, Danielle (digital Snake) and all people from Italy.

But, the great moment not the concert, but my met with Jarre. I honor him with a special plaque from brazilian fan club. Coming soon, I will put the pictures!

Merci Jarre. OBRIGADO !!!

FANTASTIQUE !!!
