May you Rest In Peace,

Aujourd’hui est un jour très spécial pour moi. La Ville de Lyon a donné le nom de ma mère France Pejot, grande résistante, à un Passage qui réunit 2 quartiers de la ville
Mon Christophe,
Aujourd’hui je te dis plus que jamais
les mots bleus
Ceux qui rendent les gens heureux,
Une histoire d'amour sans paroles
N'a plus besoin du protocole
Et tous les longs discours futiles
Terniraient quelque peu le style
De nos retrouvailles
De nos retrouvailles...
Good bye my dear Dave, the father of midi, the prophet 5, the prophet VS,the pro 1 and 3, the first soft synth, my life would not have been the same without your genius mind.Thank you Dave Smith!

Exactly 40 years ago for Bastille Day, July 14, 1979, I gave my first outdoor concert in front of 1 million people at Place de la Concorde in Paris : it was said that 7 babies were born during the show, so Happy Birthday to them!
Merci à Romain Pissenem d’avoir réuni la crème des artistes electro français et de m’avoir fait l’honneur de me faire ouvrir le show et de revenir pour démarrer le final de cet incroyable moment. (suite...)
Today is a very special day for me
The city of Lyon has named a Passageway that unites two districts of the city after my mother, France Pejot, a great resistance fighter.
Concert Paris, La Défense: exactly 30 years ago, the freedom and the joy of being together

I am very excited to announce my brand new album AMAZÔNIA, the music to the vision of Sebastião Salgado. The album is out on April 7th to stream & download and April 9th as CD & VINYL. I have also recorded a binaural version for you.
Tomorrow to the date 40 years ago EQUINOXE was released. I used the Watchers and what might have become of them as an inspiration to EQUINOXE INFINITIY. This is a little throw back to 1979 to the beginning of the EQUINOXE story.
Final days of rehearsals for WELCOME TO THE OTHER SIDE. Cannot wait to perform this show for you on New Years Eve. I’ll be doing a Facebook Live tonight at 6:30pm CET (Paris time) from the broadcasting studio.
En ces temps difficiles, vous me manquez, merci à vous tous qui me suivez un peu partout depuis toutes ces années. A bientôt !
In these days of lockdown, I miss you, thanks to you all, following me around the world over all these years. See you soon !
My new album AMAZÔNIA is out today. I was immediately intrigued by the invitation to create a special composition to accompany the exhibition of Sebastião Salgado’s great work as I am a huge admirer of his vision and relentless contribution to preserve the Amazonian forest.
50 years of music: 41 tracks, 2 brand new songs, lots of rarities and selected tracks in 5.1.
Pre-Order starts Friday.
Out September 14th.

My brother-in-arms, Domino, is gone, but only a little further, so he'll continue to wander the clouds: his favorite territory. Keyboard dandy, improv genius, faithful companion on countless nocturnal wanderings in the studio …
Only 16 days left….. this is where the magic will happen. Make sure to like/pin this post to be reminded when the live stream starts on the 31st ✨
