Jean-Michel Jarre’s Oxygene performed by Mark Jenkins

It’s 50 years since Jean-Michel Jarre’s 18 million selling ecologically aware album “Oxygene” changed the face of popular electronic and ambient music. Now music technology expert Mark Jenkins performs the album in its entirety accompanied by lights, lasers and artificial intelligence computer graphic projections. The evening opens with two other classics of electronic space music from 1976 – Ashra’s beautiful and emotive “New Age Of Earth” and Klaus Schulze’s powerful and evocative “Moondawn”.

Mark Jenkins is the creator of “Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells for the Moog Synthesizer”, “Pink Floyd’s Dark Side Of The Moon for the Moog Synthesizer”, and “50 Years of Kraftwerk’s Autobahn”. Having performed around the UK and Europe and in the USA, Brazil, Russia and China, he has written on almost every major music technology publication in the UK and is the author of “Analog Synthesizers”, the world’s leading book in its field.

The “Oxygene” performance features classic analog and cutting edge music technology including the groundbreaking and newly released ESI XSynth from Germany.
