Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum
VSE forum is one piece of unstable crap that nobody cares about. I get this errormessage almost everytime I visit the forum, I think it was something about their bandwidth being full.Nico_Noyau wrote:That's an usual error with phpbb, just refresh the page
Just what I thought for several years, Jarre can't play. Even "his own" works. And oxygene 1 to 6 is very easy to play. It is no surprise for me. I never saw Jarre in his studio playing something on his synth's, as you see other musicians in the studio they play some tunes. I saw Jarre never play something real on some movies. Just some effects or turn on knobs and that is what you can see. But I haven't seen him play something real. Hmmm... strangechristophe_ketels wrote:it's not 40 minutes, the show last night lasted more than an hour, non stop from oxygene 1 to 6, they are quite new arrangements as intros and transitions between the pieces, in my opinion too much the same though since as it was in one take and no else could go on stage to change the synths settings, Jarre especially always had the same sound on his analogue stuff so you always had the same lfo effect, the same wind, etc. he played a lot on the rmi but my god that sounded so bontempi ... on paper this concert looks so good, but he did a challenge, play 100 % live, first time ever in his career and all the musicians told me, and there was one problem last night, Jarre couldn't play.
there were about 20 takes of oxygene 2 because he can't play the chorus (the high notes) and then they stopped simply. oxygene 4 he was playing out of sync, and oxygene 6 was very, very false. the only good thing was he played the high voice on oxygene 1 (which sounds like the theremin) on the synthi aks with the blue keyboard

U were telling many times that playing with wrong notes and mistakes is cool etc so U should be happy

But 40 minutes ( or 1 hour with bonus unreleased tracks ) are not enough in my opinion to make a DVD ...jp8000 wrote:it is a bit turn off, because only Oxygene 1-6 was played, but the topic was "oxygene 30th anniversary", so it can be forgiven (I hoped for oxygene 1-13 though)
Hope there is many unreleased tracks so !
Thanks for the link, Kanta! But the picture on that site is unfurtunely to small...
I used to love everything 3D. As a kid I would sit and watch very badly made old 3D movies with my blue & red paper glasses on.
But, alas, in 2004 I lost 90% of my eyesight on the left eye, due to an illness. Needless to say... I don't care for 3D these days.
