Product Description
Japanese Version featuring a Bonus Track: Together Now.
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.
"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!
all tracks are 5 stars.
any jarre fan should fall in love with this instantly.

Album 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.
