Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum

The three chapters are probably available only to publishers who want to sample the book, Jones. We may have to wait for a leak.

Not familiar with Sudar, the percussion ensemble that did a few Jarre covers? On Sunday they are doing a big Jarre-themed concert. I have interviewed the musical director about the project.

Real Jarre dead long, long ago.
Now is very comercial JMJ only for money.
JMJ cant composed anything without other people??.

You are the person who defines the real Jarre? I thought that would be Jarre himself. It is also possible that you simply don't like "Jarre" as a composer, you only like ...

they were never fully Jarre's albums because he had others supplying to the overall layout and sound of the album. People buy a car, a Volvo for example,but how much of that car is ALL Volvo? just certain parts. Yet it's sold as and labelled as a Volvo. Much like a Jarre album. It has his name on ...

Why does this happen every bloody time? I don't think any of the promo videos so far haven't been removed a short time after being published. It's like someone is very trigger happy, and haven't waited for the proper authorization.

I never noticed it happened to any of the other videos. They ...

Nowhere did it say the test pressing was made just now. Maybe the pic of the test pressing was made just now. It's called teasing

Just a thought: The French word for 'horizon' is..... 'horizon'. And JMJ likes to have titles that are the same in French and English.

I was very positive to Jarre's talk at this conference, but if he really said to The Guardian that cell phone manufacturers should pay $300-$400 to artist for each phone they sell, then he's really lost the plot.

I assume Jarre knows aproximately what a smartphone costs and therefore 400 dollars ...

How much is actual fact and how much is Yan's interpretation, misunderstanding or lie we will never know. All we know that he hates Jarre's music and he sometimes doesnt even know what it means to be a journalist and critic.

Has Jarre's career sunk? He was touring all over Europe for several consequtive years. That's not sinking. He played in large arenas, not in small backwater clubs or at obscure 80s revival festivals. That would be sinking.

Jarre likes to do unusual things, so maybe after T&T he focused on milking ...

Jarre tried something similar in 1989 when he planned his 200th anniversary concert for the storming of the Bastille; the idea was to sell "public shares" to audiences, but obviously it never took off.

He came back with proper funding in 1990, came back in a big way

Press conference in Paris happening right now.......

What Black Bird said.

All the criticism so far in the thread, is only about wanting an egocentric satisfaction of one's own taste and preference. "Jarre is a supplier of pleasure for me, and if he does not deliver what I want, he is no good anymore".

That's not how a real artist works. If you ...

Now the same man is moving on with Apple accessories. It's as close to technological "soap" you can get imho... 8)

On the contrary, JarreTech stuff are not Apple accessories. Apple's products becomes accessories to Jarre's hifi systems! If you have an AeroSystem One if your living room, your ...

Ricardo, was the fakeness exposed/explained in the Fairlight forum as well?
