BlahBlahCafe - Jean-Michel Jarre forum

From time to time JMJ registers his newly produced work (whether it's going to be released or not) at SACEM (Société des auteurs, compositeurs et éditeurs de musique - a French professional association collecting payments of artists’ rights and distributing the rights to the original songwriters, composers, and music publishers). Their database can be queried online by anyone, but it's pretty tedious and it's easy to miss when something new appears. Together with Dr_Jones we came up with ways to do it in an automated/semi-automated way. In this thread we'll be periodically posting whenever there's an update.

Update 28.09.2021 - more tracks for FranceInfo. Track lengths were unavailable, but were added on 2.10, except for "Polygone 13" and "Polygone 13 bis". Also "Polygone 13 bis" seems to have been removed from the DB altogether.

Update 2.10.2021 - some odd titles today. Definitely seem like more jingles for FranceInfo, however Radio France is NOT credited as an interested party this time unlike with "Hexagone" and "Polygone" tracks, this info might be added later though. Could be for some documentary, East-related keywords are all over the place: Nepal, Tigers, Gamelan, Temple, Himalaya etc.

Mmmm, maybe a film score? Like you say, could be a documentary?

Yeah, sounds (or looks) very soundtrack-y

Update 5.10.2021 - FranceInfo again, 16 tracks, very much incomplete info (no track duration or even work codes)
EDIT: Update 7.10.2021 - added work codes and durations

Pentagone seems to indicate a new Radiophonie release...

Do you think some of the other tracks are for Renault cars?

I doubt it, I asked Renault about that project and they told me he's not composing music for their car.

Honestly, I'm in for another one.

Just added this morning:
BRUTALISM REPRISE (268)
BRUTALISM TAKE 2 (300)

OK, this one's interesting, just added today:
OXYGENE 4 X EPICA
