Téo & Téa
I finally got hold of the new Jean-Michel Jarre album Téo and Téa. Wow. It’s very fresh, very much a dance record, a tour de force. I think this album will probably get overlooked but it doesn’t deserve to be. There’s a lot going on in each track, very dense clever sound design and rememberable tunes - a modern day Zoolook perhaps. The title track is trance done well. While the album flows well, Partners in Crime is really standout, superb!
Check out this interview where Jean-Michel talks about some of the themes and technology (lots of Roland gear, listen out for those SH201 D-Beam pitch effects)
