JMJ Zoolook

40th anniversary

40th Anniversary Zoolook & new track

 

 

November 1984 saw the release of one of musics most innovative recordings: ZOOLOOK. To celebrate it`s 40th anniversary Jean-Michel Jarre personally re-mastered the originals and recorded a brand new track „Moon Machine", a modern take on what made the album so special 40 years ago. 

'Zoolook' fused electronic music with groundbreaking vocal samples from over 25 languages, creating a rich cultural tapestry and one of the earliest albums to use sampling technology so extensively. Zoolook is groundbreaking in its use of the Fairlight CMI, one of the earliest digital sampling synthesisers, which allowed Jarre to manipulate vocal sounds from 25 different languages. This expansive, multicultural approach created an 'ethnic' album, aligning with the influence of Jarre's former mentor, musique concrète pioneer Pierre Schaeffer, whose techniques encouraged the incorporation of real-world sounds into musical compositions.

 

Zoolook - 40th anniversary will be released on November 8th, 2024 digitally everywhere. The newly remastered anniversary edition limited-edition 180g single LP vinyl will be released on January 10th, 2025 and can be pre-ordered as of now. 


By pre-ordering the album digitally one automatically gets access to a voice note by Jean-Michel Jarre talking about the album.

JMJ and Sir Brian May - Live from Bratislava

 

 

Jean-Michel Jarre announces an exceptional one-off live concert-event, Bridge from the Future, the opening event of this year's STARMUS Festival. In association with ESET, a global leader in digital security, the electronic music pioneer will perform live at Incheba Bratislava, Slovakia on May 12 - against the stunning backdrop of the SNP (UFO) Bridge. He will be joined on stage by special guest Sir Brian May . The concert is taking place in cooperation with the City of Bratislava and is free to attend. It will be televised on Slovakian National RTVS as well as globally via the EBU network and livestreamed on Jean-Michel Jarre's YouTube channel. The concert starts 9pm CET on Sunday - join the pre-chat here: 

 

 

Bridge from the Future, specially conceived and designed for this occasion by Jarre, will inaugurate the seventh edition of STARMUS Festival , the globe's preeminent gathering uniting science, art, and music. This year, with the theme of 'STARMUS Earth: the future of our home planet', powered by ESET Digital Security, the festival convenes Nobel laureates, distinguished scientists and researchers, astronauts, intellectuals, and artists to exchange knowledge and insights as we explore profound and urgent existential questions. It was founded by astrophysicist Garik Israelian, PhD, and Queen guitarist and PhD in astrophysics Sir Brian May, under the auspices of the late Stephen Hawking. Science, often referred to as the bridge to tomorrow, holds the promise of transformative advancements - if we embrace its discoveries and predictions without hesitation.

OXYMORE holds a special place in my heart, as it embarks on a truly unique sonic journey. With the profound joy of collaborating with fellow artists, much like my previous venture, Electronica, I aim to foster a fresh perspective on my music.

I reached out to musicians whose distinct talents I believe would bring a new dimension into each track. OXYMOREWORKS stands as a testament to the art of collaboration; a vibrant collection of musical dialogues.
