I heard this album. I don't like much. It is not as old IMHOFroesesque wrote:Don't know if anyone has heard this new release from JMJ, but I think it is rather good, some good ideas. Highlights for me: Fresh News, Touch to remember and Vintage.

I just dont think these older musicians should attempt this kind of dance/techno stuff unless they live for and experience the genre every day. Its like Fat boy Slim hearing Rubycon a couple of times and then trying to out do TD.24db wrote:I was going to buy this JMJ disc, but the recent vitriol and bad reviews have put me off buying it...for now.
I still think he should be applauded for 'trying' to do something different, even if some people didn't like the end results

There are some people who like TD and don't like EM in general...weirdosChris Monk wrote:True confessions time for me.Hobo wrote:About the same time I lost interest Tim!timer wrote:I haven't been able to follow Jarre's work after Magnetic Fields - he was once a realy good music writer, nowadays it appears - through his releases - that it more contractual than from the heart !.

Never been a fan of JMJ despite a mate of mine spending most of his college years trying to get me to like his music. He just couldn't believe I could like TD but not JMJ. Nothing particulaly wrong with his music, just didn't really hear anything in his music that clicked with me.
It gets worse actually because I feel the same about Kraftwerk.
....well that's my EM credentials in tatters.

Actually Klaus Schulze is a bit hit and miss with me. Some of his stuff is pure genius, while others ......... I'm just digging myself in deeper here aren't I?Hobo wrote:Chris Monk wrote:True confessions time for me.Hobo wrote: About the same time I lost interest Tim!

Back of the EM class Chris. You can't like everything mate. I'm not that impressed with Schulze and among EM officianados, that's heresy!
