[QUOTE="Jiglo, post: 827528, member: 3953"] I didn't really rate his music too highly during the 80's. I thought it was really cheesy even then, but it was the big show that sucked me in, he was doing something new and fresh:thumbsup: I only really got into his work in recent years when I listened to Oxygene in it's entirety in a late morning chillout session after a big night with a friend. I then realised that he was onto the chillout scene when most of us were at the cinema watching Star Wars in 1977. It was a proper head twizzler at the time how amazing this piece of work was :fekked: I still love that album, even though i've never really got into any of his other albums:cool: You can't recreate that experience in an arena though, especially when mixing it up with other work that I find rather trite :| I think he needs to think about how he's going add to the sound with a visual experience that is going to capture people. Roger Waters did it with The Wall tour this year which was as amazing or more amazing than what Jarre did back then, for the time:cool: Orbital did it with their tour, Massive Attack did it with their tour, The Prodigy did it too. Even DJ Shadow did it with his Shadowsphere tour and the thing is, Shadow made it work with music that didn't need effects but were all the better for it:cool: Jarre is stuck in a timewarp. He hasn't progressed the visuals, which are now a bit ''Is that it, it's exactly the same shit as 25 years ago, but without the Pyramids and skyscrapers?'' and he hasn't progressed his sound. He seems to be aiming the show at the people that don't get out much and are still living on his old show videos, but people were leaving the stadium in droves at that MEN gig. [/QUOTE]
