Because I had a break with JMJ's music for a while, I only heard about this "symphonic" album a few month ago, and it was a pretty good surprise.

Zoolook is by far my favorite album! I found it very innovative and remarkable. Here Jarre's work on voice sampling has reached an apogee, and the way those samples structured the whole album, from bass line to drums, is incredible.
