I don’t know who the African man and women who were just performing but they just did the most Stereolab by the way of Africa style song at the #Paralympics closing ceremony! This is beautiful and I’m glad I remembered it was occurring this weekend. Paris was such an incredible host! They brought so much beauty to the whole event!
#Paralympics, now we have a man on a massive modular synth! This is awesome!
So much fun! #Paralympics
@LittleTokyo jean-michel jarre?
@unknown8bit Yes! Someone else pointed out who, I was totally wondering though!
@LittleTokyo That’s Jean Michel Jarre! He’s one of my favorites. Here’s a list of performers from the Olympics website - I recognize some of the DJs. https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/paralympic-closing-ceremony-live
@LittleTokyo not just any man, but Jean-Michel Jarre himself. One of the biggest electronic music artists of all time. I think he must be in his 70s now…
@Setok I was wondering who! Thank you so much!
@LittleTokyo Jean-Michel Jarre, the godfather of electronic music in France (since 70', with "oxygène", "équinoxe" LP's...)
@LittleTokyo Amadou & Maryam ? Famous malian singers.
@bilbo_le_hobbit Must have been! I’ll be listening now, thanks!
