Electrees Track Story:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMjgHghGyT0
I only have the mp3 version, but I've heard in the CD Version, there are some notes about any track and how the ideas and collaboration came up in the booklet.
Usually Jarre has composed something initially and presented his snippets to the other artist, where they continued to compose it to the end together.
I wonder what Zimmers contribution in this track was. I don't hear much of his "voice" here. Some quirky piano, cymbal crashes, choir and Vangelis-like synth brass towards the end are the only elements I associate with him, but the arrangement overall sounds totally JMJ. I feel this is 95% Jarre and 5% Zimmer.
I had high expectations to this track. I feel they could have made so much more out of it – we have two of the worlds very best electronic artists at work and this is all we got. There is no real melody or any clear direction here. I get the feeling that Zimmer didn't really have time for this and just threw in a few elements in a couple of hours, leaving Jarre's original demo mostly unaltered.
different… but beautiful! :-)
Electrees added ! :)

Wow, thanks for sharing! Very short indeed, but it sounds reaaaally good! Reminds me a little bit of "Final Frontier" by Thomas Bergersen. And that says how much I love what I hear.
