A fan interview with J. M. Jarre has been posted on JeanMichelJarre.com. Main topic is his 2010 tour, but questions from fans about his past and present career are also answered.

The interview is in French, and no English translation is provided – so if you don’t speak French you have to make do with this Babelfish translation. It is understandable, even though the “Western Southern cat” title is more… well… vague. :)

In connection with the 30th anniversary of Oxygene, Lean-Louis Remilleux has made a wonderful documentary about Jean Michel Jarre (Remilleux has previously written a biography in French about the same artist). The documentary contains many clips from concerts and you get to see the master at work. There are also some funny scenes from his earliest career.

The documentary is currently being aired on tv networks around the world (most recently in Scandinavia). It is also available on Youtube in French.

The new blog on J. M. Jarre’s homepage gives a good insight in his current concert tour. Now you can read updates from the concert in Zurich.

Jean Michel Jarre is currently blogging from his In Doors-tour. On his page you get exclusive behind the scenes from the tour.

Jean Michel Jarre has just launched his new website, with a brand new design. In the header there are stars flying, illustrating the endless space that has been an inspiration to much of Jarre’s music. A very nice effect indeed.

On this page you’ll find his discography, Live-o-graphy, a brand new forum and Jarre’s very own blog that also includes information about his live shows. Jarre writes: A lot of content will be pushed in the next few days, and some extra features will also pop in the following next weeks.
