People who just see JMJ as just one style "atmosphere " have little appreciation of JMJs musical diverse ability.

 IF with Little Boots,
Fresh News, Chatterbox from Teo Tea
is JmJ humour as on Magnetic Fields Five aka Last Rhumba, Computer Weekend, Love Love Love, Zoolookologie video.

Clearly there are those who don't get JmJs humour.

Here is a showcase diverseness of JMJs music.

What you are doing is sniping.
Sniping has little to do with love

You were sniping here before
Vumiko wrote:I would love to see the album credits for some of these songs. On some tracks, like "If!", I'd be interested to see how much is JMJ versus Little Boots' producer. Honestly, this song doesn't sound anything like something JMJ would be able to do on his own without major technical help from others (modern day producers).

)

Therefore I corrected you
plate of chips wrote: JmJs ability as a composer is underestimated.
We have seen JmJ can compose in any electronic genre artist he chooses, yet he hasn't because it would be copying those artists.

Electronica is JmJ composing in artists styles he wanted to but didn't.

These are not symphonies, they are 3-6 min tracks easy for JmJ

Actually most of of Metamorphosis is Jarre being inspired by Air :)

This is it.
If..! is a Little Boots song. Glory is a M83 song, etc... etc...
I don't get what the aim of this "collaboration" project is exactly... all I can see is JMJ playing music other people are usually doing. It's a compilation album with nothing really new, excepted JMJ's name on it.

Someone posted these titles on facebook. He got them from someone working at a radio station.

Can you elaborate? Are you talking album versions or some remixes?

FYI still trying to figure out the differences in bonus content of the two editions, MyPlayDirect support doesn't know, and they are still waiting (a week already!) for a reply from their marketing department. Very disappointed with this situation.

Yes, it´s shown in Germany on TV this Moment :) But I it´s unknown for most people, think Jean Michel will not earn so much money if they use only 2 -3 seconds :wink:
