Oxygene 7-13 (Reis)

Editorial Reviews

Product Description
In 1997 Jarre looked back to his signature work, but instead of re-working the themes, he approached it as if he had finished OXYGENE 1-6 and then walked in the studio the next day in 1976, rather than two decades later. Jarre dusted off his classic analog synthesizers like the ARP 2600, VCS3, Mellotron and Theremin and continued on his epic journey. SPECIALY PRICED REISSUE.

5 out of 5 stars wow.......2007-06-10

Electronic tunes at their best. Listen to this and chill. What can I say. His music is so universal, the Iranian radio and tv, have been using his tunes since the revolution for all their sports programs, of course without giving him credit. The power of good music.

5 out of 5 stars A worthy sequel.......2006-08-21

Although a bit cynical at first, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the second Oxygene album was as good as the first. I now have both albums on my MP3 player, playing as a continuous soundtrack from Oxygene 1 thru Oxygene 13. If you liked Oxygene 1-6, you'll like Oxygene 7-13.

5 out of 5 stars WHAT HAPPENS WITHOUT OXYGEN?.......2005-07-10

I don't know what all these reviewers are bitching about. This is a fantastic album. Beautifully recorded with both analog and yes digitial sound sources (check the instrument list the Quasimidi Raven, Clavia Nordlead, KORG Prophecy, and Akai MPC3000 are definately all digital instruments).

One reviewer claims "analog" to be a "dead" sound source...then explain the number of digital instruments produced these days that emulate analogue subtractive syntheses: Alesis ION and MICRON, Korg's EA-1 and MS2000, Roland JP-8000, Kurzweil 2000 and 2600 series, Clavia's Nord series, Quasimidi's Polymorph and Raven, Red Sound's Dark Star and eleVAta ... and this list goes on and on. Analog is back baby.

4 out of 5 stars 4.5 Stars.... Great "come-back" album for JM Jarre.......2005-07-10

Jean-Michelle enjoyed global success in the late 70-early 80s with his synthesizer-based albums "Oxygene", "Equinoxe", and "Magnetic Fields". After that, Jarre went on a wild spree of soundscape experimenting, steadily losing audiences. He finally put a stop to that with this 1997 release.

"Oxygene 7-13" (7 tracks, 41 min.) is what the title suggests, a straight sequel to Jarre's debut album, and a so very welcome return to the analogue (sounding) synthesizers of the 1977 "Oxygene" album. The tracks flow great from one to another. "Oxygene 7" is the excellent 11 min. opener that sets the table for other tracks. "Oxygene 8" is a terrific upbeat track, tipping the ol' hat to the influence of more modern club trancing music. Another highlight for me is "Oxygene 11", with synths and moogs bobbing hard. The last track is a funny one, not unlike "Magnetic Fields Part V", tongue firmly in cheek.

If you stopped caring for Jean-Michel Jarre after the "Magnetic Fields" album (as I pretty much did), this album is a true return to the sound of Jarre's early albums, you won't be disappointed!

5 out of 5 stars best analogue album from jarre. BETTER THAN THE FIRST ONE.......2005-04-03

....too bad it came so late, when the analogue days are clearly over. for me, this is the jmj's goodbye album. everything he made after this.. is ... well... too common.

all tracks are 5 stars.
any jarre fan should fall in love with this instantly.
