The sound engineer David Perreau, posted on Facebook a photo in studio (Bougival?), Informing the remastering of the album Zoolook ....
The Jarre had said that their new album and their remastered back catalog would be released by Sony Music, is now expected.

You got a link to the account? Can't seem to find it...
I'd like to kindly ask him not to screw up these remasters like the entire previous bunch of albums were messed up pieces of garbage, and that's not counting his latest Jarre related fuck up called Singles and Rarities...

Very promising notice.
Mr shadow stresses a very important point. The devil is in the details. Quality! Not quantity.

I haven't friended him, so I can't see much of his posts.

I hope that's why Jarre asked how the fans liked the mastering of E&R…
There is some hope for this not to occur a re-release but bonuses… #Dream

Oh, I seem to have missed the whole "Jarre's back at Sony" thing. Well, remember what happened the last time... >.<
Still, here's hoping there will be something better to wait for than what happened with the new 2013 Vangelis remasters. Still not expecting anything truly groundbreaking, but eh, time will tell.

Oh please don't tell me those are bad, I've been planning on getting them all for Christmas! The 2006 remastering of Chariots of Fire and the 2007 (and '13) remastering of Blade Runner are amazing! Didn't think Vangelis would let a bad mastering through when he'd be involved!

worse, he pulled a George Lucas, altering the original content. Elsew.com has a review

Reading it right now:
I don't neccesary mind the changes that much (there's always the vinyl records which are mastered excellent), it is a bit of a downer that the original masters haven't just been re-released in higher quality (I think I have a general idea of what it will sound like now due to his modern work). But oh well, I was almost afraid that the Loudness War had taken over, so it's not that bad I guess...
Edit: Direct and Page of Life are completely uneffected minus some volume correction and equalization? Well good, those were the two I wanted the most anyway!

So he's the one responsible for remastering the 2011 Rarities release?
Um.

Yes and that put a big dark grim over my current expectations of his upcoming fucku... Ehmm... I mean remasters...

At least someone else - except Jarre - also mentioned the new album.
It has more credibility. Quoting the Spanish forum...
