Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following the monumental success of 'Oxyg猫ne', Jean-Michel Jarre deepened his synthesized orchestrations into a remarkably fluid, continuous electronic suite. 'Equinoxe' cascades through profoundly ethereal, highly atmospheric movements, employing rhythmic sequencers and sweeping cosmic textures to craft a deeply hypnotic, futuristic sonic journey.
