The 30 greatest synth players of all time: keyboard wizards, programming gurus and sound design legends

8. Jean-Michel Jarre

What needs to be said about Jean-Michel Jarre? His placement in the upper echelons of this list was obvious and inevitable. Though they are now over four decades old, his Oxygene and Equinoxe albums still inspire legions of copyists, as evidenced by the many covers and tributes that proliferate on YouTube.
Mood music for the machine age, Jarre's compositions are at once mysterious and embracing. His joyous, jaunty rhythms propel singalong lead lines over energetic arrangements.
Always the entertainer, Jarre's concerts are record-setting extravaganzas, as big and bombastic as they come. He plays not to thousands, but to millions of fans at a single show.
Clearly, Jarre makes music to be enjoyed and there is no shortage of listeners eager to be taken along for the ride.
