I recently discovered the work of Filip Hodas, a super talented young artist, and asked him to create two different artworks in line with my vision for EQUINOXE INFINITY.

One cover shows mankind in peace with nature and technology and the other depicts a picture of fear and distortion with machines taking over the world.

With the artwork for Oxygene I wanted to draw attention to the poisoned state of planet earth.

With these two artworks for EQUINOXE INFINITY I want to bring attention to the two scenarios we are facing today with our love for & our dependance on innovation and technology.

The music of EQUINOXE INFINITY is the soundtrack to those two different worlds.

Official Press release

“ THE GREEN CONCERT ”


JEAN-MICHEL JARRE


Saudi Arabia National Day 2018.

On the occasion of the 88th Saudi National Day, which falls on the 23rd of September 2018, the General Entertainment Authority will be hosting a spectacular cultural performance in Riyadh.

The Green Concert event is conceived by legendary French electronic musician Jean-Michel Jarre.


Jarre, as customary, is to enhance his live stage performance with his signature dazzling world-class 3D visuals and architectural lighting.

The event is free and open to all Saudi public.

The Green Concert performance aims to beautifully simulate the Kingdom’s future and portray the vision of HRH Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman. Furthermore, it will symbolize environmental values and ambitions adopted by the Kingdom in regards to renewable energy and a better future for the planet.

Jarre’s central stage-set will be powered entirely by solar energy harvested from solar panels in a representation of such environmental conservation aspirations.

Additionally, the show will serve as a bold statement of hope and development dedicated to ambitious Saudi youth eager to contribute to achieving a bright and promising future for their nation.

Globally acclaimed Jean-Michel Jarre is a four-time Guinness world record holder for largest concert-events ever performed, and is also a United Nations UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for Environment and Education.

Jarre sold more than 80 million albums worldwide, and is renowned for his groundbreaking concerts performed at historical landmarks across the world.

The Green Concert will be broadcast live on : Al Saudiya 1 & Al Ekhbaria

« THE GREEN CONCERT »


JEAN-MICHEL JARRE


Fête Nationale de l’Arabie Saoudite 2018

A l’occasion de la Fête Nationale saoudienne, le 23 septembre, l’Autorité Générale des Événements Culturels a demandé à Jean-Michel Jarre de concevoir un concert-spectacle unique en son genre.

L’événement, qui a été pensé dans un esprit de rassemblement, sera gratuit et ouvert à toutes et à tous.

Ce concert allie culture et technologies de pointe et s’inscrit dans la Vision 2030 du prince héritier Mohammad bin Salman.

Le « Green Concert » est un message d’avenir envoyé à la jeunesse saoudienne.

Le concert de musique électronique du pionnier français s’associera à l’énergie nouvelle de cette jeune nation saoudienne.

L’Arabie Saoudite a choisi Jean-Michel Jarre, légende française de la musique électronique. Avec plus de 80 millions d’albums vendus, quatre Guinness records pour avoir réalisé des shows hors norme à travers le monde, ce musicien a non seulement changé notre perception de la musique, il est également Ambassadeur de Bonne Volonté auprès de l’UNESCO pour l’Education et l’Environnement.

 

Ce concert sera aussi l’occasion d’alerter sur l’urgence pour la planète de se tourner vers les énergies renouvelables.

Dans cette optique, les instruments du musicien français seront alimentés à l’aide de panneaux solaires.


The Green Concert sera retransmis en direct à la télévision sur : Al Saudiya 1 & Al Ekhbaria

When I started to work on my new album EQUINOXE INFINITY I was thinking a lot about how Artificial Intelligence has and will change our lives.

 

We have to accept that soon AI will be able to create original music, original books, original movies and it is going to change entirely our relationship with what creative process is all about.

Today I released a brand new track of EQUINOXE INFINITY called “Flying Totems”

“Flying Totems” are linked in some way with what we call crop circles, these mysterious signs that were found in South America and in some other parts on Earth or under water, these very, very big drawings in fields or deep in the ocean that you can only see from above.

Clearly, nobody has ever really been able to find out whether all of these signs were actually made by human beings.

The Watchers may have come from outer space and they may be linked to these signs.


The Watchers from the first cover are almost looking like the statues from Easter Island.

They look like totems that people could actually adore.

But they might have also come from outer space.

So, at one point in their existence, they might have been “flying totems”.

 

Its available now everywhere.

Great meeting in New York with Antonio Guterres Secretary General of United Nations.

 

For over one hour we talked about the future of authors and creators and how the role and presence of artists and culture can contribute to positive changes both in emerging countries and in the digital world.

I love oxymorons, made of two opposing words, two opposite feelings.

 

This track is a mirror of that.

 

I use the Mellotron a lot in this piece, such a great instrument, a mechanical device but with a human quality VR eating sounds like some audio remains of the past.

 

I recorded this track only once, I did everything - the melody and the rhythm-track - in one go.

 

I love the idea that technology can provide emotion, even though technology is not linked to the notion that it can actually provide emotion.

 

Robots or Artificial Intelligence are just machines without any contradicting emotions so far.

 

They might not be able to work as efficiently should they have emotions.

 

But who knows, one day maybe, robots will experience nostalgia.

For the first time I created music around artworks.

 

Filip Hodas the cover artist for EQUINOXE INFINITY designed a few amazing extra images.

 

A few are only available as part of the boxset.

 

I am particularly happy with this set as its showcasing the full visual beauty around both EQUINOXE and EQUINOXE INFINITY.

 

The Replica Vinyl CDs add a fun touch to the set. I hope you like it.
