Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum

Book looks great, would love it on my coffee table. But I expect it’ll have random typos and weird nonsensical glitches like you turn over a page and it’ll won’t have been printed properly.

The visuals look great. The screens are like scaled-down EiC tour ones.

Oh no. A DJ set, as feared.

For a moment I thought this was a gig in Bali.

I hope he stops playing Aero version of tracks, namely Oxygéne 2 and Equinoxe 4.
There should be evolution and not re-volution in regards to performances.
It goes to each concerts from now on...


I can't believe that the Aero versions have returned in the first place. They were crap when they ...

Sorry to bump a really old thread! Are these rarities albums available online? I thought they might be on the database but no luck.

I'm after the 'Francis Rimbert' version of Akropolis, which I think is basically just the studio version of what was played at the concert?


Ok never mind - I ...

Then you must have missed the Rendez-Vous remaster from 2014 (IIRC)

On a related note, I noticed recently that RV has gone from Spotify - anyone know why? I figured something rights related, but why RV in particular?

Quants pointed me to this error on Moon Machine:

The 1986 vinyl rip:
mm1984.mp3

The 2024 remaster:
mm2024.mp3

And as a bonus: the 1991 Images version, 1 second into the track (most of the RV4 "noise" has faded):
