I've read from various sources that JMJ composed a jingle to promote the new extension to the A4 autoroute in eastern France. This was in 1974. Interestingly, that's the same year Kraftwerk released Autobahn :D

I have never heard this jingle. Does anyone have a link? Or even better, an MP3 file?

I've tried to find it several times, with different sources, but I couldn't find it. Rumours are it's a pre-version of Oxygene 4, but those are just rumours.

Is there a new thread to start here? "Rumours, missing music and ultra rarities" ?!?! :D

It's possible. There's also a Nestle commercial (which I haven't found). Then there's also the soundtrack of Qui Veut Devenir Une Star? in mid-2000s. And more recently The Eye & I (vol. 1). And probably some more stuff.

Qui Veut Devenir Une Star. Not sure if this is the real thing but it sounds very plausible:

yeah, that's ripped from the DVD. Especially the end titles are great.
