I'm not sure, but it may be the same remix I've heard on 'Oxygene in Moscow' - it sound's a little bit more 'disco', with distinguished hand claps on the rythm; not TOO diferent from 'stock' Rendez-Vous 4 from previous concerts/compilations... But I personally don't believe it will be the theme for France 98... You may not believe but he's much more popular outside his country. Eduardo H. Q.

Q. AVELLAR" Subject: Re: (jarre) Rendez Vous IV remix and some personal comms. Date: 28 Dec 1997 20:28:13 -0400 Hi!! I said before that I personally don't believe that RV4 remix would not be the theme for France 98, based on the last problems and cancellations on Jarre's carreer... As an example, there are 2 or 3 years that it's being told (by jarre's *zines* and even people that work with him) that he would play at the New Year's night on Rio de Janeiro... and nothing happens! Not to say about the last Wolrd Football Cup, The Olympics, that Mexico concert,... and so on... - I also don't like soccer, even living in such a 'soccer' country as mine! :-)) Surely Jarre is today a different artist that he was - his shows are really something 'big' - nice... but repetitive! He was the [one of the] pioneer[s] on mega-multimedia concerts, but my PERSONAL opinion is that he's being too much the same - the same things on the shows, the same musics, with very little differences,... and when comes a new album, their structure is too similar!! He also does not get bored selling more and more compilations just to get the fan's money... The Essential... Live... Images... HongKong... the new 2CD oxygene pack... Too much 'only commercial' attention, poor music... Just recently, by an incident and a lot of luck, I could get the bootleg 'Rarities', with Deserted Palace, the early singles and Les granges brul=E9es... surely, there's a lot of tracks that sound today 'too old', som= e even sound like cheap soundblaster musics... but hey!! he did that without midi!! he did that on multitrack, with monophonic synths... and before 76!! That's exciting! That's originality! And also, there are some interesting pieces, including some very 'experimental' and 'vanguard' music, that he abandoned latter... Then, Oxygene, Equinoxe, Magnetic Fields, China (<- the BEST!), even the boring Rendez-Vous... are the REAL Jarre (on my PERSONAL opinion)... After that, you may save Ethnicolor on Zoolook, and Revolutions and Industrial Revolutions on Revolutions album, even starting to sound very different... And them came Waiting for Cousteau... that's a funny album, nice tune! Caribean, calypso, beaches, sun, girls.... but hey!!! That's not Jarre! At least the old one! I'm sure it was a 'shock' for most of the fans as was for me! On Chronologie, you can fell that he tried to get back, but it ended up as something as 'hybrid' as Revolutions. The new Oxygene7-13 may be a crucial point - he get's back to the analogs, arpegiators, theremin... all those things that were his marks on the first albums... That's better than Chronologie, but also, he's getting on techno and remix-things (someone remember JarreMix?)... At this point, or he will get something really JARRE for the next album (when!?!?); or he will end as a (50-years-old) techno producer, just as thousand others that exists on europe, specially Italy, doing the same that everybody is doing... >>> And let's remember one thing - he had studied with Pierre Schaeffer, one of the most important and influential minds on concrete/electronic music (he dedicated O7-13 to him)!!! <<< So... let's wait, while he will repeat the same musics, the same concerts (including those puppets)... While he will act like a monkey in front of the theremim, as he did on Moscow, and while he sells new collections and remasters, and gets even more rich!! (I hope you all PLEASE understand that all of these are MY PERSONAL OPINIONS. PLEASE don't take me bad, I really don't want to start fighting with other Jarre followers, as I AM). :-)) :-)) Sorry if I made this relief too long...! :-)) Happy new year to everybody, and merry (late!) xmas!

About the music of Jean Michel Jarre, I'd like to say that it's not the same songs and the same shows. Each song has his melody and his patches. But it's true that in oxygene 7 -13 we can hear a lot of part of oxygene 1 - 6 : for example in oxygene 7 there's the same part of drums than in oxygene 4. I think that the last best album is chronologie with all this vintage sounds. each part is different. About the shows, I was at the Mont Saint Michel in 1993. It was really fantastic. When Jarre decide to "built" a show, he knows the song for the picture. All these shows are built in such a way that we forget the last and that we become satured with the music. I'm waiting for his next album because I'm a bit disappointed with oxygene 7 - 13 (not enough studied). But all his works is magnificent. Each one think different !!!!! It's my thought ! No idea about the theme for France 98 ! Happy new year to everybody !!!
