"Just a quick note to mention that my new CD with French synth pioneer (80 years old!) is out now on Oglio Records. It's called "Destination Space", and features 17 brand-new compositions. Out on Amazon and iTunes.
It's a Moog-filled potpourri of Spy Rock, Science-Fiction theme, Perrey's usual trademark fun songs, and even a little Spaghetti Western flavor on one tune! Lots of retro sounds, and JJ's amazing tape loops....
The final track "Beyond The Milky Way" features a computer-programmed singing voice -- singing the first lyrics EVER on a Jean-Jacques Perrey recording Ð this being his 22nd album in his long 50-year career. We're doing two RARE concerts, to debut the new CD:
