Jean Michel Jarre is a pioneer of one of the fastest growing music trends today & electronic music.
His début album, OXYGÈNE, upon its release 30 years ago, took the world by surprise not only by its avant-garde musical genre, but also by its audacious album cover art-work (planet earth peeling away to reveal a human skull). With OXYGÈNE, Jarre's singular musical style and panoramic sound brought a breath of fresh air that captured the masses and remains today a benchmark in contemporary music history.
OXYGÈNE has sold over 12 million copies worldwide since its release in 1977.

Jean Michel Jarre has, with the international success of OXYGÈNE, gained his reputation as an environment-conscious citizen of the planet and an active militant for its safe-guard, a legacy for future generations; UNESCO invited him over 15 years ago to lend his talent to their mission in this field, a role he proudly exercises for the United Nations since.

December 2007 sees the 30th anniversary of the creation of OXYGÈNE; its avant-guard musical genre, its universally renowned signature melody and its visionary art-work have ensured the timelessness and value of this concept-album.

In these days where music has become a major player in global life-style, where music is omni-present wherever we are, where music is available at the touch of a button, where music is massively consumed and sadly sometimes short-lived, we thought it opportune and timely to celebrate OXYGÈNE with its eternal singularity and universality, with its premonitory environmental message that has become the centre of global attention only quite recently.

True to his spirit of creating an event out of all endeavours, Jarre decided to unearth his collection of vintage synthesisers and perform his original masterpiece for a new recording.
Having realised the collection of mythical instruments he had horded over the years and forgotten for some, in the depths of his garage, he decided to film his live performance of OXYGENE in HD and in stereoscopic 3D with optional 5.1 surround sound and Dolby digital.
"OXYGENE -- Live in your living room" is what Jean Michel Jarre has created to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his super-hit album: the stereoscopic 3D video and surround sound give the unique impression of being right there next to Jean Michel and his instruments while seated on your living room couch. Jean Michel is accompanied by three musicians for this live performance, as the 8 track original masterpiece requires eight hands for a live performance...

This special project is not only targeted at the 12 million who have already bought the original album and who will be interested by the new recording with today's technology and the live version with the legendary instruments, but also should be addressed to the younger generation who can be attracted by the originality of the music and the trendiness of the vintage synthesisers.

All generations will be bluffed by the stereoscopic 3D which is a true première. "OXYGENE -- Live in your living room" is the first concert to be filmed in stereoscopy which is the next giant step in audiovisual entertainment: Philips have developed a new plasma screen that delivers a 3D stereoscopy image visible without glasses, the film director James Cameron (Titanic) has patented a new stereoscopic movie camera and is to release his next movie in stereoscopic 3D.

"OXYGENE -- Live in your living room" comes in a package comprised of: - CD with a new super-stereo recording of the original score.
- DVD with sensational STEREOSCOPIC 3D video of the live performance also available in 2D.
- 5.1 surround sound or Dolby Digital & DVD bonus.
