Jean Michel Jarre, born back in 1948 in Lyon as the son of a film score composer and a resistance fighter, has proven himself time and time again as an innovator, both sound and performance wise. Among his list of accolades are numerous spectacular shows, once involving a light show in la Defense, Paris, which was viewed by a record breaking 2.5 million people in attendance.
The new disc comes as a sequel to Metamorphosis (one of his BEST porductions), which dates back to 2000, and was more of a vocal album, after his Oxygene 7-13 and Oxygene album in 1978 garnered him his reputation as one of the leading figures in the realm of synthesis. On his latest album, Jarre, now 58 returns to his instrumental roots, brimming with polyphony, and symphonic arrangements.[/align]

[align=justify]A must-have album. Jean Michel Jarre, the MASTER of Electronic music in my opinion got us used to his unbeatable decent taste. The guy has been in the field of Electronic music since ages; he's an expert! He is known to be the King of Electronic music par excellence! He knows how and what to deliver to his audience and is always up to their expectations. Jarre got the listeners respect long time ago and now with his new release, he revived the dormant feelings his listeners have for him. I know lot of people who love Jarre's productions and I fully understand the reason why!
First tracks I ever listened to by Jarre were the following:
Orient EXpress, London Kid, Rendez-vous (II, III, IV).[/align]
Enjoy
