[Oxygene]

[Greece2001]

Full playback and the same boring playlist? YES!!! But who cares about that...
8000 people had fun and had an amazing night yesterday! Their memories came alive, they danced(!!!!) and EVERYONE left with a smile. That says it all!

The most perfect broadcast via ... youtube (ARTE Seville concert) cannot be compared to watching a JMJ concert live.
I highly recommend anyone who is still thinking about it to see the next concerts live.

It seems that JMJ found his alter ego in kvat production! At a relatively low-cost festival, the visual spectacle was at least impressive, worthy of JMJ's heavy history.

Sebastian Tellier impressed with his support, he played an hour LIVE and left very good impressions

Looks like the setlist order has been changed yet again. The concert kicked off with The Opening (the name fits perfectly), and RV4 and MF2 were played as the encore.

I absolutely love the crowd's reaction. Hearing everyone sing along to RV4 is amazing. It was pretty stiff in Poland, though, but that’s also on the chairs and the security.

Yes, I heard that from a fan who was there, too. And he threw out Epica Oxygene.

Odd to throw out an Oxygene during the Oxygene anniversary year (not that I'm a fan of either of those Oxygene 4 remixes that he's performing)

Actually yes, you made good points here!

It looks like JMJ doesn't really view these gigs as an Oxygene anniversary celebration. It’s only the promoters who keep hyping that up. I guess we can always hope for "maybe on the next tour"...

Personally, I think the best case scenario would be if he played the original Oxygene 4 as an encore, transitioned smoothly into the Astral Projection Remix, and then moved on to RV4 and MF2 (or just MF2).

I love DJ sets and seamless transitions between tracks, and it’s been a while since I’ve heard Jarre do anything like that. Back in the day, his concerts used to have those cool bridges between songs.

Yeah, some very cool extras on the live versions The other day, I had JMJ on shuffle and Equinoxe Pt. 7 from the Concerts In China album comes on. What an intro! One of the best. Wasn't it Frederick Rousseau who used to arrange these bridges, back in the day?

I do like these graphics, and the human figure is evocative of JMJ – esp. the glasses and the hair - but it could be great to mix in the young Jarre (with longer hair!) with today's version, shorter hair and then to a a future cyborg version of JMJ.

To me nothing beats the intros on PLD (O4, E4, MF2) and the transition between Ethnicolor and Zoolookologie.

It seems this is the "Live AI" he spoke about. Pictures of a live camera focused on JMJ and processed in real time by AI. There were similar effects on "Brutalism".

That's exactly what I was mainly thinking of.

I think it was during Epica. Brutalism had the same laser show as last year.
