Jean-Michel Jarre in English

7 décembre 2018

The Inasound a festival is very close to my heart because, being a child of Pierre Schaeffer’s, I have spent my life promoting the importance of the GRM (musical research Group). We talk a lot about festivals dedicated to electronic music, not always knowing what it means, but the Inasound wants to be a real festival that celebrates electronic music, both in terms of music and of images with video.” At 70 years of age, and nearly 80 million of albums sold, Jean-Michel Jarre can rightfully be considered as one of the fathers of electronic music. Host of the first edition of the Inasound festival, he is our guest.

    2001 : Space Odyssey

    Stanley Kubrick - Video - 1968
    "Cinema has always been one of my main sources of inspiration. 2001: the Space Odyssey I categorize because it is the film which impressed me the most at the beginning of my career. It is linked to this period in history when man had just walked on the moon. It is also the foundation of a romantic vision of the future. On the musical side, there is this oxymoron between the image and the sound. It's great to use, in order to illustrate the voyage of a spaceship, The Blue Danube, this waltz of Strauss, this way of using music, not as an illustration but as a counter-point. The same thing with György Ligeti's requiem for the monolith scene. All of these are things that have had a deep impact on me and that are the foundation of the way I envisioned the electro scene, this mix of technology, poetry, exploration and futuristic vision. "

    Sketches of Spain

    Miles Davis - Audio - Columbia - 1960
    "This album holds everything I love in music, the idea that music, instrumental in particular, is a soundtrack that can be done in one’s head. It's interesting to celebrate timeless and trans generational albums”

    Pierre Schaeffer – 10 ans d’essais radiophoniques

    Pierre Schaeffer - Audio - Phonurgia Nova -
    "Contrary to popular belief, electronic music does not come from Detroit or from the United States but from continental Europe. It has nothing to do with jazz or rock but with our classical music, Stockhausen on one side, Pierre Shaeffer and Pierre Henry on the other. The GRM is the basis of everything. All the DJs are the grand children of Pierre Shaeffe’sr who, since the 1940's, has created loops, the fact of tampering with the sound, of accelerating it, slowing it down, turning it upside down ... Without this clearing work we would not exist and electro music throughout the world would not exist.”

    Contre-Temps

    Flavien Berger - Audio - Pan European Recording - 2018
    "Musically, it's always hard for me to choose. I will start with Flavien Berger's current album. He is one of those artists I like because they build bridges between different styles, as I've always tried to do between experimental music, pop and melody. Flavien also has, on another level, the desire to build a bridge between classical song and electro, with a totally poetic side, while taking in lots of domains and various styles, to create a deep specificity. Flavien is the typical example that comes to contradict all those who think that yesterday was better than today and that tomorrow will be even worse. "

    The Bricks that built the houses

    Kate Tempest - Livre - Bloomsbury Publishing - 2016
    "Kate Tempest is a young English rapper whose novel has been praised by the British and American press as the great renewal of Anglo-Saxon literature, and which I advise to read urgently. It's a sort of accelerated Vernon Subutex. It is an extremely powerful style where we feel the meaning of the rapper's formula in the service of a very incarnate, very carnal story. A very, very beautiful book. "

    Zep - Livre - Rue De Sèvres - 2018
