After inhaling too much Oxygene and exhaling the techno remix album, Odyssey Through O2, Jean Michel Jarre sets about to find a happy medium between vocal and instrumental, electronic and dance. After decades of producing electronic, instrumental music, Metamorphoses features vocal collaborations with Laurie Anderson, Natacha Atlas, Veronique Bobba, Lisa Jacobs, Evoka's Dierdre Dubois and Jarre's own metamorphosised voice. The result is a slightly darker and faster paced album, co-produced by French DJ Joachim Garraud. Over a course of 12 tracks, Jarre asserts the identifiable melodies that mark his work while expanding on it with the vocal collaborations, which recall Air, Underworld and Orbital. "C'est La Vie" and "Give Me a Sign" are singles that should appeal to a wide audience, but the real highlights here are the longer, darker tracks "Hey Gagarin", "Millions of Stars" and "Je Me Souviens". --Colin Neal
