Jean-Michel Jarre & 3D (Massive Attack) - Watching You (2015)

Electronic music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre’s collaborations with Massive Attack, Tangerine Dream & Gesaffelstein will be released as three limited edition vinyl EPs available exclusively via The Vinyl Factory on 19 June.

2015 will see the release of Jarre’s new studio album, preceded by collaborations with some of electronic music’s finest talent. Having released his first single ‘Conquistador’ in collaboration with Gesaffelstein earlier this year, Jarre’s next two collaborators don’t come any bigger: Tangerine Dream and Massive Attack.

On June 19, three vinyl EPs – one for each collaborator so far – will drop exclusively on The Vinyl Factory, with each record containing original versions plus unique mixes.

For the first set, Jarre teams up with Massive Attack’s 3D for ‘Watching You’, a track taken from the forthcoming album that perfectly balances the classic ethereal sounds of Jarre with the underground and experimental sounds of the Bristol duo. The vinyl set features exclusive B-Side versions: a ‘Jarre Reworked Version’ and an ‘Extended 3D Mix’. Ex-graffiti artist 3D also pitches in to design the cover artwork which you can check out below.
