Jean Michel Jarre is considered one of the most influential musicians of the modern era, a genius artist whose approach shaped electronic music and paved the way for current generations. He encountered synthesizers for the first time in the late sixties and after the first commercial failures, for which the experimental nature of his work was to blame, he slowly but steadily made his way among the giants. To date, he has sold more than 80 million albums, and he also became the first Westerner to perform in China.

At that time, he filled Ljubljana's Tivoli Hall with as many as 50 analog synthesizers, with which he conjured up a unique concert experience.
