Very cool!  To celebrate this I'm uploading a track I made years ago with my first VSTi: the EMAGIC EXSP24 sampler. It's a cover of fourth rendez-vous. Enjoy and as usual, let me know what you think of it! |

Interesting cover Marc, well done  If you see what gear JMJ uses, it's amazing how you managed to do this with one Vsti k |

Well, the delay lama was also involved; it's the vocal sounds. But I put it through plenty of effects.  |

Good one, Marc! I've never heard the original - now I don't need too  I love to see a celebrity take a stand on important issues. Count me as a new Jarre fan. Oren. |

I'm not exactly what you call a new JMJ fan , but I agree with you Oren, it is important to hear known musicians say things like that. k |

Great, now I can use my collection of JMJ midi files ! I must admit I like JMJ more now I've seen this. Anyway: why not put together a kind of ode to JMJ during our live gig ! We can put this on video and post it on youtube. Who knows, JMJ will have a surprise for us ! Moon P.S.: Marc, great impression. Care to do this live ?  |

Brilliant idea! Pieces like RV4 and Equinoxe 4 and 5 are among the few things that I can (mostly) play right away and Jarre's stuff is also easy to improvise on. I'm all for it!

I've always liked his work, and never heard of him being pushy or arrogant - this vid just confirms it.

Marc, A friend long ago introduced me to Jarre's music..something like 20 years ago,so I do not remeber what I had heard exactly,but your rendition has a very distinct retro quality-which is quite impressive!  BTW,I too,enjoyed the video of Jarre speaking out..a very sweet man.Now there is no excuse left for me to not seek out & discover more of his works. Cheers, Thom |

Enjoy and as usual, let me know what you think of it! Well I had some trepidation about listening to this as I am rather a JMJ fan, but I have to say you've done very well with it. |

Thanks guys, glad you like the cover so much! Some of the sounds that I got with the EXSP sounded so much that I just had to try that track (most notably the pulse-synth backing and the synced lead synth). The rest was more difficult - such as getting to sound the delay lama like those cool incidental sound effects that Jarre uses - but I'm very happy with how it turned out, too. I'm quite obsessive on sounds and overall sound, so I was delighted to be able to finally with a soft synth get close to Jarre's sound.
