ELECTRO HARMONIX MINI SYNTHESIZER - Jean-Michel Jarre Video
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction
"Here is a super rare ELECTRO HARMONIX MINI SYNTHESIZER model EH 0400. Unit is fully working 100% and comes with the original EHX power supply. 2 fresh 9 volts are included so you can play anywhere from the onboard speaker, which sounds really crisp and crunchy. The keys have been weathered cosmetically over time by some previous owner who got a little excited... However the playability of the keyboard is still flawless. Every key works and has a solid, fat tone. I opened it up and cleaned the interior and sliders as best I could. Everything is original, including the cardboard back cover. This is a rare collectors item, and this thing packs a serious punch for it's size and the sound does not disappoint. I ran it through a couple of 4x10 bass cabs and this synth blew the roof off my practice space. You will fall in love with the quirky nature of the EH 0400. The sound gets pretty far out there from Hendrix riffs to unknown cosmological territory.
I can film this unit in operation for you but that's already been done... check out this VIDEO..."

"Peking: October 21st and 22nd, 1981 & Shangai: October 26th, 27th and 28th, 1981.
... After two years of negotiations, the Government of the People's Republic of China agreed for the first time to officially invite a western contemporary musician to give a series of concerts in Peking and Shangai.
... On October 12th, a team of sixty musicians and technicians left Paris for Peking with 15 tons of stage gear in the plane's hold. A gigantic stage installation, one of the most sophisticated concert happenings yet seen, and the technical, diplomatic and human accomplishment of five triumphant concerts fired the Chinese public with enthusiasm.
... The film of the China Concerts retraces this unique adventure, and, with Jarre's music, illustrates post-Mao China: its sufferings, its beauty, its desire for modernity, its aspiration for liberty ... images captured in 1981, at a historical moment when it seemed China was opening itself to the outside world...
... In 9 parts. :-("

China’s First Post-Revolution Concert
The China Concerts (Part 8 of 9) - Jean Michel Jarre
YouTube via 9thenazeing.
China’s First Post-Revolution Concert was a synth concert.
1981 with Jean Michel Jarre and featuring the Electro Harmonix Mini Synthesizer.
You can see Jean Michel Jarre and the Electro Harmonix Mini Synthesizer at 8:01. Some general synth spotting as well. Via EHX.com, where you'll find a great image of Electro-Harmonix founder Mike Matthew showing the Mini Synthesizer in Russia two years earlier. These are fascinating views of history and how music bridged and you could say broke through cultures. You can read more about the Russian trip here.
Via EHX.com:
"Jarre breaks the barrier and steps out into the audience with his Electro-Harmonix Mini Synthesizer, using it as a literal and figurative bridge between East and West"
