Jean-Michel Jarre releases “EQUINOXE INFINITY” Remix EP with mixes by Tale Of Us, Jonas Rathsman and PerturbatorOFFICIAL PRESS RELEASENEWS PROVIDED BY Sony Music Digital out on Sony Music today: Tracklisting: After the triumphant release of EQUINOXE INFINITY—the 40-year sequel to his legendary 1978 album EQUINOXE—JEAN-MICHEL JARRE returns with a 12-inch that sharpens three highlights of the album into deadly club tools. EQUINOXE INFINITY out last November blended classical sounds with JARRE´S signature synth melodies, which makes him a perfect match for TALE OF US, a world-conquering techno act. The Italian duo take on IF THE WIND COULD SPEAK, turning from a minute-and-a-half long interlude into a dance floor anthem with symphonic swells and unforgettable melodies. Already earning support from DJs like Adriatique, Richie Hawtin and Carl Craig, the TALE OF US remix is set to become one of the biggest dance floor hits of the year. Swedish house artist JONAS RATHSMAN steps in for a restrained and spacious remix of DON’T LOOK BACK that highlights the tension and mood of Jarre's composition, folding its drama into well-timed chord stabs and the kind of careful pacing that makes it a good for opening sets, a breather during peak-time or a spectacular set-ender, especially with its intense breakdowns. French synth artist and former black metal musician PERTURBATOR delivers a hefty remix of ALL THAT YOU LEAVE BEHIND, rubbing JARRE´S textures raw for a tougher, grittier and punkier version of JARRE´S original. The remix EP has something for every dance floor—showing that JARRE´S music can connect with almost any generation, on almost any level. The Remix EP is available today for streaming and download. The limited to 1300 units 12” is a RECORD STORE DAY exclusive, out tomorrow April 13th.
