Jean-Michel Andre Jarre (born 24 August 1948, Lyon) is a French composer, performer and music producer. He is regarded as a pioneer in the electronic, synthpop and New Age genres, as well as an organiser of outdoor spectacles of his music which feature lights, laser displays and fireworks including the 1997 New Guinness Book of Records entry for the biggest concert ever with 3.5 million watching at Moscow's 850th anniversary. Jarre has sold an estimated 80 million albums and singles.




The album Oxygene consists of six tracks, numbered simply Oxygene Part I to VI. Its sound has been described as "an infectious combination of bouncy, bubbling analog sequences and memorable hook lines."

Contrasted with its contemporaries, such as the rather 'clinical', hard, futuristic sound of Kraftwerk's early music or the more 'cosmic' and murky Tangerine Dream, Oxygene has a lush, spacey and strongly melodic sound.

Track listing:
"Oxygene (Part I)" – 7:40
"Oxygene (Part II)" – 8:04
"Oxygene (Part III)" – 2:58
"Oxygene (Part IV)" – 4:07
"Oxygene (Part V)" – 10:31
"Oxygene (Part VI)" – 6:19

Usage elsewhere
The track Oxygene (Part II) was used in the Australian film Gallipoli to accompany the crucial running sequences.

The track Oxygene (Part II) (the fugue part beginning from 1:36) was used as a (alternative) title theme for the British SciFi TV Series Space: 1999 in the German dubbed version as shown by the ZDF during the early 80s.

Oxygene (Part II) was used in the advert for the Citroen C5 in 2001.

Oxygene (Part IV) features in the game Grand Theft Auto IV on an in-game radio station, The Journey.

Oxygene (Part IV) also appears in UK comedy series Knowing Me, Knowing You... with Alan Partridge's second episode as magician Tony LeMesmer (David Schneider) performs a magic trick on Alan's show.

Segments of the album Oxygene can be heard in many amusement arcades across the United Kingdom (notably in "Elaut" machines)

Oxygene (part II) also appears in Jackie Chan's movie Snake in the Eagle's Shadow while the main character is training "snake" style.

Parts of the album were used as incidental music for the original radio version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.[6]

Key components of Jarre's sound included his use of the Electroharmonix Small Stone phaser on synthetic string pads provided by the Dutch-built Eminent-310 Unique organ, and liberal use of echo on various sound effects generated by the VCS 3 and EMS Synthi AKS synthesizers.

The album reached #2 in the UK charts and #78 in the US charts[/left]
