Jean-Michel Jarre Announces Oxygene 3
. 
(Prog) Jean-Michel Jarre will release the third and final part of his iconic Oxygene trilogy on December 2nd he has also released a video for the track "Oxygene Pt 17". The record, which will contain cuts 14-20 and will be entitled Oxygene 3, celebrates the 40th anniversary of the classic album, which is widely credited with paving the path for many contemporary electronic musicians and DJs. Jarre describes the follow-up to 1997's Oxygene 2 as "adding a sense of now" to his existing work. Jarre says: "Oxygene Pt 17 is the first single and a bright moment of the album. I wanted to create a groove with the melodic part on its own and to also create the real feel of a spacey trip - which is what Oxygene is all about - and with minimalist drums. "What made and makes Oxygene different, is probably that an important part of the sound is made of white noise, creating a hazy atmosphere. It is ironic to think back in time when everybody was obsessed by improving the signal to noise ratio, that I used so much noise as part of my music." . Watch here.
