Jean Michel Jarre - Shipyard overture (Industrial Revolution)

[spiritofangela]

I can't help it, I must say this: Jean Michel, you are so cute in this video!

[NickyBee16]

Slightly different to the original in places - I love it!

[MrSokol92]

zastanawia mnie tylko czemu instrument na którym on gra nie jest podłączony do żadnego sprzętu?

[LeoNpyroman]

@MrSokol92 jest podłączony do takiego jakby mikroportu instrumentalnego (to coś jest przypięte do spodni od Jarra), który przekazuje sygnał bezprzewodowo do samplera i on generuje to brzmienie

to jest dobre rozwiązanie które eliminuje targanie za sobą kabla po całej scenie.

@hardweird i got the album its an special edition :D

[arczi68]

my parents were there to see it live ^^ we live in gdansk. :D

[motormouth1974v3]

This version is just not as good as the original destination docklands live version. There's nothing like a biblical rain storm and fireworks to make it that bit more special.

[AtreyuReVolutions]

To było coś!

Wielki Mistrz 

[Sun69able]

I've been there. I saw. I heard. I felt.

I remember I had mixed feelings about this concert.

From one side: the History and the Shipyard- the siplicity and austerity.

Fireworks and the electronic music I like: just the kitsch- one may say- from the other.

Just like Gothic and Baroque.

I knew he was a professional.

So was curious what he would do.

After the concert I knew he was genius.

In my opinion the most beautiful one in his career.

I was lucky to be there and experience.

[diablisko666]

when i visited france, i didnt notice that, but i must be honest - didnt ask everybody about age. Other thing is, that there is not much pure french-blood people left in France. There is plenty of people looking like they have some north-african blood in their veins. Its quite different in Paris, and probably other big cities (its like african city to me - half population black, other half definitely not pure white), a different in province (most of people white).

[Psylocibowy]

Everything begun in Swidnik. Those labourers rised their fists when the state increase the price for the meal in canteen belonging to a local factory. Thats the truth. And then everyone in province of Lublin joined to that movement, and then from the other cities.

[JarreEgyptNZ]

Strong.

[hardweird]

Where can i get this Version? Was this printed? It's awesome!

[davewilson1969]

@hardweird Download the free reaplayer down loader plugin for firefox. Download this and convert to MP3 (free real converter) , drag into iTunes. bob's your uncle!

[hardweird]

@davewilson1969 did i sound like a mp3-leech kid who has no ears, hence he can't hear how crappy the audio quality on this youtube video is and can't afford cd's? Did i sound like a noob not knowing how to use simple freeware tools? And didn't i ask for a PRINTED medium in the first place? mr.davewilson...you really must think you're smart giving out such GREAT tipps. just stop spamming people's inbox with your tips for lame mp3-tools.

[RadioGalena1]

Excelente músico. Realmente Parabéns !

[SynthJocky]

This is fantastic! Why isn't modern electronic music like Jean Michel's?

[ThePauldoddy1]

That Keytar Sound Is Soo Cool! I Want One.

[rammetje108]

so good, why there was no ubicity in Holland during this event? Is that censur? In the NOS journal there was sad that there was a kind of fest, but no Jarre mentiont in this announcement. Why?

[Xsilo993]

Who is the man behind Jarre?

[SynthJocky]

@Xsilo993 His name is Francis Rimbert, I believe he's worked with Jean Michel for quite some time now.

[happygregory1989]

@SynthJocky Saw them both in Manchester the other week.

[SynthJocky]

@happygregory1989 That's great, I wish I could've seen him, but I saw him last year so at least I've seen them in concert before ;)

[happygregory1989]

@SynthJocky Yeah they both look excellent for their ages.

[SynthJocky]

@happygregory1989 They do indeed, it's actually a known fact that most french people look years younger than the age they actually are, when JMJ was in his late 20s he looked 12 in my opinion.

[happygregory1989]

@SynthJocky I wanna go live in France when I hit 40 if that's the case.

[oufc29]

@SynthJocky are you sure thats his name it could be frank morrisson

[Prosthetics100]

crowd number = /0

[idv80]

ТЫ ГЕНИЙ!!!

[Xsilo993]

Live version is better than orginal :D

[ColapsusJarre95]

what instrument play first jean michel in this song , is marimba , stell drums ? what

[reasonfan1]

It's just some electronic drum pads hidden behind some oil drums, but I doubt he's playing anything as the intro to this song is a preset sound called "Machine Run" from a Roland D50 synthesizer. You can play this sound indefinitely by holding down a single note on the synth, but I guess that wouldn't look quite as exciting when you're on stage giving a concert ;)

[oufc29]

@reasonfan1 How do you know that It's just some electronic drum pads hidden behind some oil drums, was you there did you see behind the drums?

[reasonfan1]

@oufc29 Maybe I know because you can see behind the oil drums on the video? :P

Good luck with the eye test....

[reasonfan1]

The greatest French mime artist since Marcel Marceaux. Fantastic music though, so we'll let him off :)

[trackstube]

because you say that Jarre is a mime after Marcel Marceaux ?

[kevycanavan]

look at Jarre pretending. thank God he's back

[bialamagia88]

Master of playback :-]

[mtatrip]

@bialamagia88 its too much to play live i think

[pelu3030]

@bialamagia88 equivocadooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[DarkBasic997]

@bialamagia88

Francis Rimbert robi mu podkład.

[oxygene65]

@bialamagia88 ha ha ha ha.. erm.. ahem, I dont know what you mean there !

[musician1971a]

@oxygene65 For a start the loop that sounds like hammers on iron, that's a loop from the Roland D50. And then he plays some notes during the whole piece that sound... well... a bit off, but suddenly, during the solo, he plays EXACTLY right. Well, ok, maybe that's real. Still, the percussion part is really this loop I mentioned. One key to press, not several instruments to trigger or play. I don't make this up, I have that loop

[oxygene65]

@musician1971a I know, I was being sarcastic ! Its always frustrated me watching JMJ live, I've been to several of his concerts, and in some bits its very obvious he was miming. Its a shame because the concerts are so fantastic and the music so good, the miming is like putting a little black mark on them. That patch off the D50 is awesome :) Another patch I like is Bank 4 Program 6 on the Elka Synthex. I dont make this up, I have that patch !

[musician1971a]

@oxygene65 Lol, sorry. And I know what you mean... Do you own a Synthex?? I'm trying to make that laserharp sound in other instruments, but it's just never gonna be as good as that Elka sound.

[oxygene65]

@musician1971a heh heh, no worries mate. Yeah, I own a Synthex. I bought it about 10 years ago for £1600, hopefully worth a bit more than that today ! (not that I would sell it)

Have you looked online ? what synths do you have ? I think if you go onto some of the Jean Michel Jarre chat forums you will find that there people have made available their Jarre patches to download. I managed to get a few patches for my Yamaha AN1x which had a couple of reasonably convincing laser harp sounds.

[musician1971a]

@oxygene65 I mostly have softsynths, and quite a few of them. For synths I have Reason 5, Native Instruments Kontakt, Reaktor, Massive, Arturia Minimoog, Moog Modular, Prophet, Arp2600, and more. I should look on that forum I guess, maybe there are some patches :-)

[oxygene65]

@musician1971a nice collection. I've tried the moog modular and minimoog ones and thought they were great, and the korg legacy which is pretty impressive. Although I am plagued with midi latency problems with the soft synths, so rely on my hardware for 99% of my sounds. I've collected over the years an AN1x, JP8000, MS2000, DX100, VP330 Vocoder, SY55, Synthex, JV1080, XV5080, TG500, A-Station and S6000 sampler. Not that I ever get the time to do any music these days. Bah !

[macre8]

@bialamagia88 youre so stupid man so i dont care what you say asshole

[56Nikos]

YEAH..... GREAT MUSIC

[bialamagia88]

You're absolutely right!
