Blah Blah Cafe, the Jean-Michel Jarre forum

He just follows the time like everybody else. Look where Vangelis went. That was away from what I liked, and Tangerine Dream went in a new direction aswell. If you look back on JMJ's albums, they are very suited for the period. Technology has changed JMJ's way of making music, but that's another thing

Anyway, thanks for the photo's of the Croissy mansion - just wish we had a better collection of photos of the really fascinating room of the house, that is the studio.

There is small video about Jarre's studio in Croissy (*.mov file) where you can walk with the mouse through the two studio rooms. If you are interested, contact me and I will send it to you via e-mail.

Is this that video from the french mag Keyboards where it just shows a few instruments on display for Oxy 7-13 or is it his entire studio set up?

Its probably the one that Bignath(Natalie Galios) had on the old Jarre.net forum,it basically gave you a 360 degree view of Jarres studio with the option of going in between the two seperate rooms,was around the time of metamorphoses album,had Joachim Garraud seated in the studio,don't think there was an awful lot of equipment in there as usually is and ,infact he had a Cycling Machine in there ...if its the same .Mov Jarre was also pictured in there laying down sleeping on a sofa in the studio

You're welcome, Matt. I agree, would be great see his studio throughout the years.
