From BroadwayWorld.com:
Visionary composer and producer Jean-Michel Jarre has announced the June 19 release of three special edition vinyl EPs containing collaborations with 3D (Massive Attack), Tangerine Dream & Gesaffelstein. With music taken from his forthcoming studio album, all three EPs will be limited to 1000 copies and available to buy exclusively via The Vinyl Factory.
Having unveiled a preview of his M83 collaboration ‘Glory’ back in April, shortly followed by the release of his single ‘Conquistador’ with Gesaffelstein, Jarre’s reveal of the next two cohorts to join his project don’t come any bigger. Now, with the likes of Tangerine Dream, 3D, M83 and Gesaffelstein all officially on board, it’s becoming abundantly clear that Jarre is carefully hand-selecting the most influential voices of both the past and present to join him on his musical journey.
First up, Jarre teams up with 3D from Massive Attack to create ‘Watching You’, a piece of music that perfectly balances the ethereal sounds of the Frenchman with the underground and experimental sounds of the Bristol native. In addition to the Original Version, the B-Side will feature a ‘Jarre Reworked Version’ and an ‘Extended 3D Mix’ from Robert ‘3D’ Del Naja himself.
