Goin’ Old School: Jean-Michel Jarre, Anne Clark & D-Mob with Cathy Dennis

Goin’ Old School isn’t a trip down music memory lane, it’s a mugging in the dark alleyway of nostalgia:

In 1981 Jean-Michel Jarre continued to break new ground, both in synthesizer music, and chart music, with his hit Magnetic Fields II.

The amazing Anne Clark’s 1984 breakthrough Our Darkness. Pioneering electronics.

D-Mob with Cathy Dennis, before she penned one of the greatest British Pop songs of all time, hitting the charts with House-lite and C’Mon And Get My Love in 1989.

The awesome pre-Stacey Q SSQ first with ‘Synthicide’ from 1983.

From 1984’s ‘Zooklook’ album, the 1985 single release of ‘Zoolookologie’ by the master Jean Michel Jarre.

Cyndi Lauper’s ‘The Goonies ‘R’ Good Enough’ from 1984. Richard Donner directed the video. Oh shut up!

Goin’ Old School: Jean-Michel Jarre – Zoolook

Jean-Michel Jarre is one of my all time heroes, a synthesizer king who has made some of the most epic music ever. In the mid-80’s he got a little funky and experimental with emerging sampling technology resulting in 1984’s ‘Zoolook’ album. This is the title track.
