Happy New Year everyone!

Had some fun last month doing something we've long wanted to do, a cover of Jarre's Last Rendez-Vous. It's hard to do well since the saxophone part gets very difficult, and most covers of this song go off the basic "literal" transcription of the old 90s JMJ song-book, so generally they don't sound very good in terms of timing, and often don't have any expression and dynamics. I don't know objectively if we've managed to do it well, of course, but subjectively we're pretty happy with it! ;)

Anyhoo, on top of the sax and guitars, the cover makes use of our Combo B3 and Concert BarChimes Rack Extensions.

I have an ancient composition that was inspired by that track, I finally came across it and it’s not too bad. I may refresh it with a modern production.
