Zapped to the Past Episode 230 - Jean-Michel Jarre

This week we take a look at one of the most influential musicians in electronic music and certainly on those composers working on the Commodore 64. Come with us then on a magical journey of light harps, Moogs, and songs that seem to go on forever as we wait patiently for Cousteau on our beach of electronic enigmas and dive into the world of Jean-Michel Jarre.    Find us here: https://zappedtothepast.com/ If you would like to help us out and join our Patreon, find it here: https://www.patreon.com/zappedtothepast If you want to buy a Coffee for Zapped to the Past, go here: https://ko-fi.com/zappedtothepast Need our links in one place - you can do that too: https://online.pubhtml5.com/oowg/grrx/#p=1 Additional links mentioned in the Podcast: Discography | Discover all albums of Jean-Michel Jarre Yie Ar Kung Fu (C64) Main Theme  Magnetic Fields, Pt. 4   Jarre arr. by Rob Hubbard - Zoolook (Oscilloscope View)  Zoolook (new mastering)  https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/G/Gibson_Tony/Jammin.sid&subtune=10 https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/C/Crowther_Antony/Son_of_Blagger.sid&subtune=2 https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/D/Daglish_Ben/L_O_C_O.sid&subtune=1 https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/H/Hansford_Graham/Trollie_Wallie.sid&subtune=3 https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/C/Cooksey_Mark/Bomb_Jack.sid&subtune=1 https://www.lemon64.com/game/captain-blood https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCPOZRG-yGs&list=RDeCPOZRG-yGs&start_radio=1 John Keating - The Uknown Planet John Keating - Space Agent  Shibolet Whip Blow (Remastered)  Ancestors  Last Ninja 2 (C64) tune "inspired" by "Midnight in Tula"  Last Ninja 2, The Mansion OST Alchemy of the Heart Gary’s Recommendations   “Switched on Rock” 1969 and all the Moog-related albums that sprang up in early 70s   Isao Tomita “Snowflakes Are Dancing” 1974 “Firebird” 1976   Walter/Wendy Carlos “Switched On Bach” 1968 “The Well-Tempered Synthesizer” 1969 “Sonic Seasonings” 1972 “A Clockwork Orange” 1972   Tangerine Dream “Atem” 1972 “Zeit” 1972 “Phaedra” 1974 “Rubycon” 1975 “Stratosfear” 1976 “Sorceror OST” 1977 “Encore” 1977   Edgar Froese “Epsilon In Malaysian Pale” 1975 “Ages” 1978 “Stuntman” 1979   Klaus Schulze “Irrlicht” 1972 “Cyborg” 1973 “Black Dance” 1974 “Moondawn 1976   Vangelis “Heaven and Hell” 1975 “Albedo 0.39” 1976 “Spiral” 1977   Kraftwerk “Ralk & Florian” 1973 “Autobahn” 1974 “Radioactivity” 1975 “Trans Euro Express” 1977 “The Man Machine” 1978   Brian Eno “Evening Star” 1975 (with Robert Fripp) “Another Green World” 1975 “Ambient 1” 1979   Popol Vuh “Affenstunde” 1970 “Seligpreisug” 1973   Harmonia  “Musik Von Harmonia” 1974   Manuel Göttsching “Inventions for Electric Guitar” 1975   John Carpenter “Assault on Precinct 13 OST” 1976   Absolute Everywhere - In Search of the Ancient Gods (concept album on the work of Daniken) 1976   William Sheller (French composer) “Lux Aeterna” 1972   Yellow Magic Orchestra “Yellow Magic Orchestra” 1979   Steve Hillage “Rainbow Dome Musick” 1979   Laurie Anderson “Big Science” 1982   Gershon Kingsley - “Popcorn” 1969 Joe Meek/The Tornados - “Telstar” 1962 The Shadows - “Apache” 1960 One-off melodic instrumental hits!   Krautrock bands - Neu! / Faust / Can / La Dusseldorf / Harmonia / Kluster/Cluster.  The “Berlin” school - Tangerine Dream / Klaus Schulze / Ashra - emphasis on long form improvisations.
