In July 2024, French electronic music pioneer Jean-Michel Jarre—whose albums like Oxygène (1976), with over 18 million copies sold, became benchmarks for synthesizer sound and laser shows—performed at Francofolies Festival in La Rochelle, an annual event launched in 1985 as a platform for Francophone music emphasizing pop and electronics among 150,000 attendees at Esplanade Saint-Jean d'Acre. His 90-minute set on July 14, captured in high quality and remastered in 4K, embodied the tour climax, where atmospheric synth textures merged with laser projections and vocal samples to spark collective ecstasy under summer skies. Featuring tracks like "Oxygène Part IV", "Equinoxe Part V", and "Chronologie Part 6", this show highlighted his veteran status, turning the festival esplanade into a realm of visual and sonic trance.
