A flamboyant comeback for the master of techno... Jean Michel Jarre
(né/née en 1948)
Componist Jean Michel Jarre wordt gezien als de ambassadeur van de
Europese wereld van elektronische muziek. Gedurende de jaren 1970
zorgde hij ervoor dat de synthesizer ongeziene populariteit kende.
Hij werd een internationale ster die gekend stond om zijn
verbluffende concertspektakels. De artiest is de zoon van de
beroemde filmmuziekmaker Maurice Jarre en werd in Lyon geboren op
24 augustus. Hij begon pianolessen te volgen toen hij vijf jaar oud
was. Als tiener begon zijn interesse in klassieke muziek af te
nemen, want hij had een nieuwe grote liefde: jazzmuziek. Vervolgens
richtte hij de rockband, Mystere IV, op. In 1971 resulteerden zijn
experimenten met elektronische en akoestische muziek in de single
‘La Cage’, maar die werd niet bijzonder goed ontvangen. ~ Jason

Equinoxe Infinity (2018) is het vervolg op het album Equinoxe (1978) van Jean Michel Jarre en wordt veertig jaar na Equinoxe uitgebracht. Voor Equinoxe Infinity put de Fransman inspiratie uit Equinoxe, maar de nummers zijn wel gecomponeerd met gebruik making van moderne elektronische apparatuur. In Frankrijk is de plaat goed voor een twintigste plaats in de albumlijsten.

The release of Electronica 2 is part of a project that gives off the air of a sort of 'All Star Game' in electro music. Indeed, the 19th album from Jean Michel Jarre is the direct result of its predecessor, Electronica 1. To make them, the French musician visited various studios where his guests worked in order to collaborate with them. As a result, this second instalment was composed and recorded around the world! The artistic process is comprehensive, human relationships are privileged as much as the music. The list of special guests (Massive Attack, Air, Moby, M83...) was already full for the first game, but it continues to grow: Jeff Mills, Hans Zimmer, Christopher Rone, Sébastien Tellier... The result is 15 co-composed songs and 19 tracks in total. Everything is beautifully mixed, perfectly balanced and greatly inspired. Jean Michel Jarre has once again reminded us that he is most certainly the unquestionable master of French touch. © AR / Qobuz

When the Godfather makes an offer, it can be difficult to refuse… This is a bit like what Jean-Michel Jarre has done with the release of Electronica 1: The Time Machine. The supporting cast assembled by the great French guru of electronic music, for his 18th album, no less, is impressive. Stylistically and generationally, Jarre has set the bar high by inviting a smorgasbord of electronic artists as diverse as M83, Air, Moby, Pete Townshend of The Who, 3D of Massive Attack, Vince Clarke of Erasure, Boys Noize, Gesaffelstein, Tangerine Dream, Laurie Anderson, Armin van Buuren, the filmmaker John Carpenter, and even the classical pianist Lang Lang. Gathering such a wide-ranging cast together could have been risky, and could even be read as a bluff on the part of Jarre. But JMJ’s Electronica 1: The Time Machineis a fully coherent work with a real homogeneity. Each guest brings their own personal touch with them, but Jarre remains in charge. When the record hits home, returning to earth, one has the feeling of having undergone a fascinating techno journey, crafted by a musician more inspired than ever. © CM/Qobuz

The title gave us fair warning, but the world wasn't ready. In the year 2000, three years after he gave us a follow-up to his masterpiece Oxygène, Jean-Michel Jarre, now basking in the glory of a gigantic concert in Moscow's Red Square, brought out Métamorphose, which stunned fans because it contained vocals! The record opens with a collaboration with American singer Laurie Anderson, Je me souviens, over an Eighties electro instrumental, before Natacha Atlas comes in for the next piece. On C’est la vie, the diva of Transglobal Underground does what she does best, with her Near-Eastern vocal sallies, which producer Joachim Garraud, matches with percussion from the same climes, and trancey beats and keyboards with a slightly kitsch effect.
Next up, Rendez-vous à Paris, in the hypnotic voice of Jarre himself, filtered through a vocoder against a glitchy, aquatic background, and accompanied by the Irish violinist Sharon Corr of the Corrs; Bells, one of the only completely instrumental tracks, while Tout est bleu and its techno beat marks a little departure from good taste. Despite a fine cast list, the record, which would not win the expected commercial success, was simply not understood by Jean-Michel Jarre's hardcore fans. Twenty years on, perhaps they'll give it another chance. © Smaël Bouaici/Qobuz
