Jean-Michel Jarre Zoolook


here's a blast from the past. Amazing back in 1984. You've heard some of his other work from the late 70's, you just don't know it. I think Gillam sound used one of his songs for years in a TV comercial. Link goes to a YouTube video of the song

Zoolook is the fifth mainstream album by Jean-Michel Jarre, and released in 1984 on Disques Dreyfus. It makes extensive use of digital recording techniques and sampling. It is considered by many fans to be Jean-Michel Jarre's most experimental album to date. Much of the music is built up from song and speech from over thirty different languages, together with other synthesizers, as well as more traditional instruments. Much of the tone of the album appears to be influenced by elements of musique concrète and by his time as a student of Pierre Schaeffer.
