Jean-Michel Jarre has announced his 22nd studio album.
'OXYMORE' will arrive via Sony Music on October 12, following up on 2021's 'Amazônia'. In what will be the first commercial release of its kind, the record will be an immersive piece in a multi-channel and 3D binaural version.
A press release reads: "Multi-channel binaural sound will revolutionise how music is composed, mixed and produced, placing sounds and textures in space in 360 degrees."
The album's arrival will be accompanied by the launch of a VR world. The electronic music pioneer explained:
“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 experience.”
