Teo and Tea
(pronounced Te-Oh and Te-Ah), just in case :p
Teo and Tea is the unusually stupid name from Jean-Michel Jarre's new studio album, due to be released in March (France). According to the man himself, the album is totally new (ie no more oxygenes, rendez-vous, or equinoxes!). A promo single is due out next month.
But, thanks to the wonders of the interweb, I've managed to download a CD rip of the radio promo of the single (also called Teo and Tea), also including two teaser videos!
I've been listening to the song on repeat for the last 15 minutes or so, and I can tell you it sure is different! Very techno-y, reminds me of early 90's euro dance/trash. Nothing really Jarre-y in it, if you listen to it without knowing who did it you'd never guess it was the Big JMJ.
Anyhow, for all you G-D readers/Jarre lovers, I've uploaded both promo videos on youtube but I've embeded the "Tea" video here. If you wanna see "Teo" just search youtube.
Enjoy. PS: The single sounds just like the video music.
Let's see what the full album is like come the 26th of March.

You're so full of shit. The new single has so many traits of Jarre's typical sound in the background that you just aren't listening to i properly. I've played it to three people so far, and two have identified it as sounding like Jarre...go figure ya' stupid prick.
You can download the entire album by going here: (actually the link was removed but almost all memebrs of teh Jarre forums have a copy).
I wasn't sure at first if I would like this but after each listen I like it more and more! It is brilliant, in a platic sort of way. Maybe this is Jarre's "Deserted Palace, Vol. 2"?
ah, the promo is leaked as you say. I'll hunt it down later this evening and give it a good listen or two.
admittedly, teo and tea (single) works better with a video, cos it makes sense (it's like a story), so perhaps the plan for this album is to have a video accompanying each track. I don't know :)
I never heard Deserted Palace, wasn't it a soundtrack Jarre did? I know it was re-released recently in France.
Thanx for visiting whoever you are
i had the chance to listen the promo of the new album of Jarre.
at first sight, i thought it's crap.
but i now like it soooo much.
I think it's hist best album since Rendezvous. That's no joke......
it is so incredible deep....
I love it, and I buy the 5.1 version.
can't wait to listen to it......
many regards,
a big Jarre fan from Germany
Yes I've heard that opinion from lots of people, saying that the more they listen, the more it makes sense...
Frankly, I'm happy that Jarre has created NEW material, rather than done another "AERO", which is good at the time but another revisit album would've been too much
I will buy it 5.1 also, come March :)
