This thirteen-song debut EP shows the promise that Jean Michel Jarre has. sixteen years ago, Jean Michel Jarre briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Oxygene 4″. Concerts - La Defense is an amazing album, racked with beauty.One of Jean Michel Jarre’s best albums yet.
This song is dynamic and dramatic. Album opener Equinoxe 4 is a bright, upbeat ditty. Souvenir De China is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. Concerts - La Defense couldn’t start better than with the up up-beat title track Chants Magnetiques 2. This is probably my favorite song on the album. So much energy, so exciting a sound.Outside of the singles, my favorite song on Concerts - La Defense is Rendez-Vous 2. Revolution - A nice song. Calypso 1 is a pleasing, and full of overall coherence that goes beyond other creations. Calypso 2 gives good insight into the truths. The first time I listened to Calypso 3 I was struck by its gorgeous sound.
