Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum

Also interesting: the streaming versions have the same tracklist as the original release, whereas the Bandcamp re-release have a different track order. I would assume the Bandcamp track list reordering is due to them accommodating the bonus track Happiness Is A Sad Song to fit on the vinyl, and the...

From 22 minutes onwards: Renault Senic E-Tech Launch A mix of Epica and Oxygene 4 at the beginning. The car sounds are heard during the video - possibly those tracks registered at SACEM.

Absoluteley

Sort of suggests no new 'music' as it were, but instead using stems and sound files that already exist. That supports a post on one of the FB pages from someone who emailed Renault about a possible release of the music. Renault stated that it wasn't music per se, but sounds and ambience designed fo...

Despite the track titles, it may well be some ambient sounds for the Renault EV project - background for the car environment. Pure speculation on my part though.

Yeah, sure was - I was there

I think that even Jarre doesn't remember exactly what was played during the exhibition. Has anyone ever actually asked him that? Jarre has said in quite a few interviews that the album was recorded especially for the exhibition. He was in the middle of preparing for the Zoolook album, which explain...

The tape was no doubt returned to JMJ / Dreyfus once the exhibition ended, as per contract. A similar thing happened during the Concert D'Images exhibition in 1989, when the full 75 minute version of Waiting For Cousteau was played.

It's really a shame that the record seems lost to time. Was there no demand that all sales after the auction needed to be communicated to Dreyfus? The record was never expected to gain a commercial release. The auction was to raise funds for the artists whose work was soundtracked by the album play...

Anyway, it says there was a "safety copy" kept that was never used... Is this common knowledge? What was destroyed at the Music For Supermarkets auction has been interpreted in a few different ways. The fact is the master plates (or "mother record" as JMJ called it) used to pres...
