    Enjoyed this a lot. Not a classic or anything, but there are some really interesting collaborations on the two Electronica albums (1 & 2). The highlights on this one are the collabs with Air, Fuck Buttons, and Gesaffelstein. I got a little less than I hoped for, from the collaborations with Moby, 3D from Massive Attack and of course Tangerine Dream. But my hopes were probably unrealistic. And the truth is, these tracks are still among the strongest on the album.

    Overall, this album is a joy just to see what happens when these artists work together, many of them among my favorites of all time. And there's always been something so inoffensive about Jarre, such that even his most optimistic, gallic melodies develop a likeability of their own, just for being so unmistakably Jean-Michel Jarre.

    There's nothing I actively disliked on this album. You can easily argue that it's actually less cheesy and earnest than a lot of his solo work (of which, I think I own every album). And I think it's well worth adding to your electronic music collection.

    My overall rating rounded to 60% - i.e. 3 stars out of 5.

      JMJ and Vangelis collaboration LP would be interesting but no...

        Very, very, very disappointing....Not much you can and should say about this album. Jarre has become more of a follower than a searcher...

          Horrible. Kitschy almost all along. There's no a single newby, nothing interesting solution, nor, a single good sound. Disappointing as during the last decade. IMHO the best track is that with Tangerine D. and interestingly with P Townshend. Jarre is used to be a pioneer but always had a twisted sense to the kitsch. Now, it turned out in full-lenght.

              90s-2000s cover aesthetics, wtf face on the photo, pseudo-ambitious exceedingly vast work that needs "parts", historical wink like "I'm a vet, I can sum electronic music history up and show you all the way for tomorrow", loads of duo-mutual-shared-composition-work-featuring-and-arm-long-credits, and just plain flat epic-ish awfully mastered tracks that still damn feature 2010-style vocoded voices and annoying self-claimed emotional high-pitched male singing. DAMN. Disappointing again. JM, where art thou?

                Big names - generic outcome. IMO the only interesting [or at least worth second listening/coming back to] collabs here are with AIR, Fuck Buttons and 3D [that track should be listed as 3D feat. JMJ lol] - those tracks stand out. And Moby - to some extent, if you are into his despair-tronica. The Vince Clarke collab is [claps??] disappointing. The rest is some bland mix of late-JMJ generic dance stuff, nothing mind-blowing [with a nicey piano track at the end]. The album in general sounds like an attempt at sounding epic. It has more of historical value as a gathering of well-known or established music producers. P.S. And I will never accept the fact that my childhood electronic hero, once a pioneer and one of electronica gods, JMJ, one day started doing 4/4 dancey stuff. It's not ground-breaking anymore, it's just going with the mainstream flow. Sad.
