Depeche Mode -Sounds Of The Universe
AJMET
Another album branded Gore, which represents an innovation as there is something different from the previous ones. After years of activity, the band still knows how to innovate. It can be classified between Violator and SOFAD. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Les Granges Brûlées
AJMET
A soundtrack probably composed with little effort (practically every track is a reinterpretation of a single theme), at the time Jarre was already engaged in composing what would become a masterpiece. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Zoolook
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — Zoolook | DeRank™: 0,00

A complete turnaround for Jarre, highly successful and original. From compositions without voices or titles (only divided into parts), here the sampled voices take center stage and for the first time titles of the tracks also appear. The most experimental and original work of JMJ. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Rendez-Vous
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — Rendez-Vous | DeRank™: 0,00

Almost exclusively composed in honor of the event of the same name (concert in Houston), it results in a beautiful album, with soft and very sad tones (Part IV, another hit, aside) and thus different from the previous ones. For the first time, the entrance of acoustic music in a JMJ composition. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Revolutions
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — Revolutions | DeRank™: 0,00

Jarre's most "politically engaged" album, characterized by a mix of Arabic and pop sounds, isn't bad, but in comparison to the others, it is slightly inferior, also due to tracks (the title track and September) that are almost nonsensical. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Chronologie
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — Chronologie | DeRank™: 0,00

After years, here comes an album worthy of the title masterpiece. Jarre adapts to the times and delivers a "modern Oxygène" worthy of his first two works. The overture (Part I) is beautiful and moving, while IV (coincidentally, the number is always the same) once again becomes a hit. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Oxygène 7-13
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — Oxygène 7-13 | DeRank™: 0,00

Reprise of Oxygène, well done overall but beautiful only in parts. Oxygène 9 is an obvious reprise of Part I of the original; it's hard to catch differences between tracks Oxygène 7 and 12. Ox. 8 is perhaps the last Jarrettian hit. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Sessions 2000
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — Sessions 2000 | DeRank™: 0,00

Few are the details about this album, the result of various sessions with other musicians. You can definitely hear the lack of exploration in the arrangements, but some tracks are quite good. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Geometry Of Love
AJMET
Chillout Project underestimated by critics and unknown to most, showcasing how Jarre can adapt to various contexts while maintaining an exceptionally high level. Beautiful are the title track, Electric Flesh, and Velvet Road (already performed earlier in a concert in Okinawa). more
Jean Michel Jarre -Téo & TéA
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — Téo & TéA | DeRank™: 0,00

Jarre returns to the scene after four years with a dance album. The attempt to achieve a new commercial success fails due to the lack of originality of this enjoyable and catchy project, which is not, however, worthy of his best works. Waiting for something better... more
Jean Michel Jarre -MEtamorphoses
AJMET
AJMET

Jean Michel Jarre — MEtamorphoses | DeRank™: 0,00

Second album featuring the voice, this time not sampled, but the result of numerous guest singers and Jarre himself (who still sings with a voice filtered through a vocoder). The first two tracks are very beautiful, the rest is nice and the album as a whole is decent, but nothing more. more
Placebo -Battle For The Sun
AJMET
AJMET

Placebo — Battle For The Sun | DeRank™: 0,00

A sort of return to the past, with results that are only half good. At first listen, it seems boring and in the style of BMM, but then you realize there's a lot to discover. But songs like Ashtray Hearth or For What It's Worth take away the elegance that has always characterized them. Beautiful Kitty Litter. more
Björk -Volta
AJMET
AJMET

Björk — Volta | DeRank™: 0,00

New style in this album, which completely abandons chillout and pop to make way for rhythm-focused electronics. Bjork always knows how to innovate, and this is her latest, beautiful metamorphosis. more
PHIL COLLINS -...BUT SERIOUSLY
AJMET
AJMET

PHIL COLLINS — ...BUT SERIOUSLY | DeRank™: 0,00

Pop here finally of high class, the best production from Collins (which says a lot about the rest). Many beautiful and well-made tracks. But a prog album from Collins we will never have. more
Muse -The Resistance
AJMET
AJMET

Muse — The Resistance | DeRank™: 0,00

I give a 5 to Exogenesis, which is their best work, light-years away from any other music they've composed. It seems that the three of them focused on that during the three years of its creation, because the rest (rating 2.5) only features Uprising (a new Time is Running Out) and Unnatural Selection. For the rest, there are too many references to other artists and it's too pop. The Pink Floyd did the same with Atom Heart Mother: the suite is beautiful, less so the rest. more
Klaus Schulze -Timewind
AJMET
AJMET

Klaus Schulze — Timewind | DeRank™: 0,00

Perfect fusion of the darkness of Mirage and the rhythm of Moondawn. Excellently achieved, yet another masterpiece. more
Klaus Schulze -Mirage
AJMET
AJMET

Klaus Schulze — Mirage | DeRank™: 0,00

Perhaps, along with Moondawn, the most complete of Schulze. Unforgettable is the first track. more
Klaus Schulze -Moondawn
AJMET

Klaus Schulze — Moondawn | DeRank™: 0,00

Together with Mirage, my favorite. A real addiction, I will soon celebrate 30 years of dependency. more
Klaus Schulze -Kontinuum
AJMET
AJMET

Klaus Schulze — Kontinuum | DeRank™: 0,00

After years, a return to great heights, predecessor of the magnificent collaboration with Gerrard. A return to the formula of three long tracks and to a style familiar to Klaus. On the threshold of 60 years, a warm welcome back to the master. more
Jean Michel Jarre -Waiting For Cousteau
AJMET
An album that should have been limited to the spectacular final suite. The first three tracks are ugly and uninspired. more
