It's a bit Calypso meets Equinoxe.

I think we have to listen the full album Equinoxe Infinity to appreciate it. And I think you understand when you listen the end of Infinity , it's probally a continous of an other track like Equinoxe 5 to 6. :wink:

Good thought.
I guess also it's a kind of a transition track.

Listening to it brings a smile on my face. At leat not all tracks of this album are dark and slightly depressive :D
It's not a 'high level' Jarre track, but I can get used to it.

Yes please do so and while you're at it ask your alter ego Flux if he is already finished scanning those notebooks. We have been waiting for 9 years now :mrgreen:
flux wrote:...I have photo-copys of the technical notebooks from Oxygene, Equinoxe and Les chants magnetiques from that time (thanks to MG) handwritten and drawings(settings) by Jarre and Geiss. That is why i can provide this details.

Oxygene 60 pages (A5 format)
Equinoxe 190 pages (A4)
Les chants magnetiques 40 pages (A4)

If somebody want these notes? PM me.

If you need "getting used to it" more or less means you probably wouldn't even bat an eyelid if it didn't have the name "Jarre" slapped onto it.
Anything particular on that product page?

Can someone please put up a link of Movement 6.

If Infinity is mirroring the first album then it will be a transition piece. I won't complain if 4, 5 and 7 are as good as the original album :D but I think that is wishful thinking.

Is the 90s preview much different compared to the 30s one? Because the short one sounds pretty meh. And I don't expect the rest of the track to be much different, as per the track description "I recorded this track only once, I did everything - the melody and the rhythm-track - in one go", so that doesn't give a ton of possibilities.

I'm not convinced yet by 'Equinoxe Infinity' - 2 copies of Vangelis (Track1+2), 1 average Track (3) and 1 Easy Listening (Track 6) .... :?

Thanks! Well, at least near the end of this clip something different is starting to happen. We'll see soon enough once the midnight comes in our respective time zones ;)

You call that "EASY listening"? It's actually very hard to listen to. It's "painful listening" ;>

Easy Listening - Music which can be heard beside and doesn't need the attention of the listener (such as Background Music or Elevator Music).

Nope, 60% of the Jarre tracks are not very pleasing to my ears the first time I listen to them. But after listening a few times things start to sound better and better (apart from a small number of tracks). This hardly happens with other artist for me.
