Track Listing / Description
Electronic music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre will release his 22nd studio album, and one of his
most ambitious projects to date, ‘OXYMOREâ€?on October 21st, via Sony Music.
The album has been conceived as an immersive work in a multi-channel and 3D binaural
version. Multi-channel binaural sound will revolutionise how music is composed, mixed and
produced, placing sounds and textures in space in 360 degrees, and can be easily experienced
by any listeners with headphones. ‘OXYMOREâ€?is the first commercial release of this stature
which pushes the future of musical audio and sound to this new level.
As part of the immersive project, Jarre will also launch ‘OXYVILLEâ€? a VR world which
accompanies the album release.
“OXYVILLE will be a virtual music city, and in the future I will invite other artists to be a part of it, as well as hold masterclasses and other events. I want it to become a sandbox for new music experiences,â€?he explains. Jarre is no stranger to innovative disruption when it comes to VR and the metaverse, having recently performed ‘Welcome to the Other Sideâ€? a groundbreaking livestream broadcast worldwide from a virtual Notre Dame in Paris on New Year’s Eve, 2021. U.S. touring & live entertainment trade publication Pollstar stated that the livestream attracted record breaking audiences of over 75 million viewers worldwide across various platforms, television and VR.
