Jean-Michel Jarre has produced a new version of the single “BRUTALISM” with Depeche Mode’s Martin Gore. Jarre’s new album, OXYMORE, will also be out on October 21st via Sony Music.
BRUTALISM Take 2 was released on September 9th. The track serves as a forerunner to upcoming LP OXYMORE, Jarre’s 22nd studio album. It pays homage to the late French composer Pierre Henry and includes samples from his works provided by his widow. The label describes Jarre and Gore’s work as a “dark and melodic journey”.
“A real moment of upheaval”
The album also features a new recording technique: “This is a real disruptive moment for recording audio and sound. ‘OXYMORE’ is an attempt to explore new ways of linking technology and music. We now have technologies that allow us to explore composition in spatial sound, which opens up a whole new experience for us musicians in the creative process.”, so Jarre.
OXYMORE can be pre-ordered now. It will be available on CD, double vinyl and digitally in stereo, binaural and Dolby Atmos. In addition, the physical product contains a code that allows access to the binaural master in maximum quality.
