"EMIC" M83 and Jean-Michel Jarre together on the track "Glory" - 16 April 2015

The collaboration between Jean-Michel Jarre and M83 should not go unnoticed. Both composers reveal the title "Glory", created for the soundtrack of the short film "EMIC".

Almost 30 years apart but their passion for electronic music brings them together in 2015. The two French producers Jean-Michel Jarre and M83 have worked together on the track "Glory". This song will be available on download platforms on 15 May 2015. It was specially composed to accompany the images of the short film "EMIC" to discover exclusively on Google Play. This joint project of Google Play and Paramount Pictures was mentioned for the first time in November 2014. It had announced at the time a documentary inspired by the movie "Interstellar" by Christopher Nolan (2014) and called on users to contribute in its development by submitting their own video.

David Brodie and Angus Wall, Editor for "The Social Network" and "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" took care to select images from the 8,000 submitted videos. The result is impressive and wants to witness the world as men perceive it today, for future generations. The descendants of Jean-Michel Jarre and M83 is assured.

That's more in the right direction.

So, this is officially the first single, then? With proper mixes and all.

[Finaero]

Very QVDUS, pretty smooth.

Very QVDUS, pretty smooth.

Yes, it has the same "darkness" and I recognise some drum sounds which sound like QVDUS.

I can say I like this track. A lot better than Glory. A lot. There's two parts in the song: a sequenced bit and a chorus with "choir". The choir has a typical JMJ flavor to it, sounds, drums. This feels more like a joint effort than M86's Glory is.

The JMJ remixes are quite identical to the original mix, which is how it always should have been since the 90s. Both have a guitar-sound halfway, which make it sound a bit like Rammstein. In fact, I can hear Till Lindemann sing over this song quite easily. There's a nice 'piano' line in it too, which is not heard in the original mix, the non-extended remix having it more than the extended mix. The original mix has an interesting transpose and some sequenced effects which remind me of Equinoxe 6.

Good track. Much, much better than poor Glory.
