Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum

Given how expensive the Thomas & Hudson books are then I think it should hopefully be checked!!

I'm looking forward to that book - the Push, Turn, Move one was good too and he wasn't too involved in that one!

It might be the winners of the Metapop remix contests for 'Robots Don't Cry' and 'Infinity' as that all seemed to die down afterwards?

It does look quite official but I hope they sort the sound out!!

The bol.com page has been updated with a 'product description' but don't know how accurate it is!

De zender France Info bestaat sinds 1987. Het is een publieke nieuwszender. In 2016 lanceerde France Info een project van een nieuwe openbare service-informatie televisiezender. En het is Jean-Michel ...

I definitely think the album needs to be listened to as a whole in order for it to make sense properly. It is certainly a soundscape and I don't think the parts are so effective on their own (with the exception of Part 17 and maybe even 19), as they feel a little bit lost because they're not ...

Just as a side note (and I'm probably nit picking here!) but it's weird that the vinyls from the Ultimate Boxset drop the hyphen out of Jean-Michel but the CDs have it present and correct!! I think the normal release vinyl has a different centre label as well doesn't it?

What are the contents of the book? Can someone enlighten us?

Yep, it is mostly larger pictures of the synthesizers used on all of the Oxygene albums along with some other things such as the studio lighting used and the images of the master tapes of the three albums.

Won't say anything else ...

And one from Electronica 2: The Heart Of Noise (well 2, if you count the lyric video for 'What You Want' )!

And there's also pictures of the boxset on Amazon UK as well!

You can now zoom in on the back cover of Oxygène 3 on the Vinyl version on Amazon UK - fair few instruments used there!!

I think the continuous mix will group them all together but I'm not sure if that's just for Amazon as their mp3s are usually encoded with a pause at the end and beginning of each track which is SO annoying when you listen to it through their music service!!

The only other thing I'm wondering about ...

I think my biggest issue with it being called 'Oxygène 3' is that it'll cock my iPod listings up now!!

Oxygène
Oxygène 3
Oxygène 7-13



(I can't bring myself to call 7-13 Oxygène 2!! )

I wonder if that short vibraphone-style piece that was on the Lalique Aerosystem documentary will make it on to the new project as I always liked that track!

I'm also wondering if Adagio will make an appearance as well as that is very Oxygène-like and hasn't appeared anywhere since!

On a different note - it's a shame that Chrono 4 has been dropped again! He really seems to have a love-hate relationship with that track lately!

On a slight side note, it's quite interesting that in the liner notes for 'Switch On Leon' it says 'They also did a remix of Oxygene which they titled Toxygene and which I loved so much.' I thought Jarre hated that track as the remix was too far removed from the original (I believe it was a mix of ...
