2CD set of Jarre's 2015 and 2016 albums

German pressings

Packaged together in a 4-panel fold-out digipack that houses both albums along with the 12-page booklet for each.

An ambitious project, Electronica 1 and 2 saw Jarre collaborating with a vast array of artists to present 34 tracks across the 2 discs.

Excellent, as-new condition with no tears or folds to the set. A hype sticker (as shown - yellow) is affixed to the back of Electronica 1, but can easily be removed.

Electronica 1: The Time Machine is the seventeenth studio album by French electronic musician and composer Jean-Michel Jarre, released on 16 October 2015 by Columbia Records. It was recorded with the help of 15 collaborators, including Moby, Vince Clarke (of Depeche Mode, Yazoo, and Erasure), Gesaffelstein, M83, Armin van Buuren, John Carpenter, Robert "3D" Del Naja of Massive Attack fame, Pete Townshend (from The Who), and the late Edgar Froese of Tangerine Dream, the collaboration being one of Froese's last projects before his death in January 2015.

Electronica 2 includes collaborations with Pet Shop Boys, Rone, Julia Holter, Primal Scream, Gary Numan, Hans Zimmer, Edward Snowden, Peaches, Sébastien Tellier, The Orb, Siriusmo, Yello, Jeff Mills, Cyndi Lauper and Christophe.

A unique set of work that stands out as something unlike Jarre has ever done before or since, this is a worthy addition to your collection. The ability to produce tracks that while sticking to the genre of all the artists on their own, but at the same time sounding unmistakably like Jarre makes this a standout piece of work in his catalogue.
