There are some minor problems during the video recording. F.x. Rimbert standing in front of the huge one putting wires into it and then there is a clip, and then he's standing in front of a keyboard. But that's a minor thing for me. I like the music and that's the most important.

Will get the 2D version today (I hope)

Yes I noticed that aswell. I think they have played with the recordings as with the Jarre In China DVD, but it doesn't really bother me.

They used quite a few of the original recordings for this "new" mix

I was actially talking about the live DVD But what I meant was that they has edited the video, so the picture and sound doesn't match all the time.

'JEAN MICHEL JARRE: OXYGENE 3D' CD & DVD BOX SET

Jean Michel Jarre's Management confirmed to JARRE UK today, that Jean Michel Jarre is planning to release 'OXYGENE 3D', a NEW 30th Anniversary CD & DVD Box Set, featuring a NEW 'LIVE' performance of Jean Michel Jarre's Classic 'OXYGENE' Album, on November 26th 2007.

'OXYGENE 3D' will feature Jean Michel Jarre's Private 'LIVE' performance of 'OXYGENE' Parts I-VI at Alfacam's Studios (www.alfacam.com), in Lint, Belgium, accompanied by Francis Rimbert, Claude Samard & Dominique Perrier, recorded in 3-D High-Definition with Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound on September 19th 2007, presented on both Super CD and 3-D DVD Formats.

Jean Michel Jarre's Management have also confirmed that Jean Michel Jarre's 'OXYGENE 3D' Box Set will also include 2 Pairs of 3-D Glasses, and will be Jean Michel Jarre's first release with the EMI Music France Label, since his departure from the Warner Music France Label in August 2007.

... did I miss something .... is Jean Michel no longer with Warner

Thanks a lot for the news Dunkie

Has he left Warner...

The point:

New DVD !!!

Thanks!

Am I the only one that sees a patern?

After many years with Polydor international he changed to sony,... the first release was something commercial, oxygene 7-13 to be exact... Then we had meta that was a commercial flop because the record company didn't market it and then he got dumped by them..

So off to Warner and release a best of called Aero (name it what you want, but it's nothing more then a fancy best of release) Also aimed at commercial succes... After that we saw something new that didn't get promoted (TnT) and he got dumped by his label... again..

Now we see a new record company and guess what, they're milking the oxygene cow again with this... So my guess is that the next album will be as brilliant as TnT and Meta, but it won't get promoted and thus will flop and he'll get dumped again...

Maybe JMJ should consider going with a smaller independent label and just do whatever the hell he wants so we won't get another commercially aimed item again just to sell out.

Now don't gt me wrong, I think I might like this live DVD but not so sure about the motivations to make it...


Why doesn't he do a club tour promoting Equinoxe (1-8, god forbid) instead eh? It's a much better album IMO

Great news ! Title is excellent.
I Hope we'll see Jarre and his side-men aswell.

EMI stands for Electric Music Industries. That's a great shortcut to Jarre's music.

Well I hope he fairs better at EMI France. We all now that Warner hasnt' been the most friendly of labels.

Hopefully EMI knows better how to handle artists like JMJ, Warner has a too wide targetgroup.

Hmm, strange that he left, not?

Thanks a lot for this news, Dunkie!

Greetzzz...

I must say i'm very very excited. It's something spacy to now that we can watch Oxygene in 3D. He should do the same with Equinoxe but that's still up to JMJ. And he should do it with one of his huge concerts. But I can't wait till the DVD come's out.

Neither can I That 3D seems interesting but is this the effect that is only meant to work with those new televisions or was that technology meant to work without 3D glasses?

wondering what "Super CD" is.... might as well be a typo and really meaning Super Audio CD (SACD)...

as far as I know, this new 3D technology does not require 3D glasses (as long as you're watching such content on those new TV sets. Maybe with "old" ones, you still need such glasses)

Thanks a lot for this absolutely fantastic news, Dunkie. I look so much forward to the DVD. Roll on 26 November 2007.

I wish JMJ very much success with his new label EMI Music France.
