Hi yourself Smag!
To be fair - our parties are not usually free, but we have done a couple of outdoor freebies!
BTW - not a huge Jarre fan myself. If we're talking classic synth dudes, I'm more of a Tangerine Dream (up until mid 80's), Vangelis, Klaus Schulze fan.
I'm really not sure I'd call him a pioneer (as cited above). People were doing what he did *many* years before he did his thing (and then recycled it to death IMO).
Also BTW - apparently Jarre did a track a couple of years ago with Natacha Atlas (now I *am* a big fan of hers). Must try and find that at some point...
