Recorded live on July 2nd 2005 at Pont Du Gard (France) (20th anniversary of its inclusion of UNESCO’s world heritage list). Jeff Mills performed a single live outdoor concert with the Montpellier Philharmonic Orchestra, at the foot of the Pont du Gard bridge in southern France, a World Heritage classified site. Symphonic versions of Jeff Mills’ greatest works were performed for the first time with the 80-piece, classical orchestra, conducted by Alain Altinoglu. Included in the concert are the full, melodic pieces “Imagine” and “The March”; the deep, classic techno piece “Gamma Player”; selections from Jeff Mills’ film compositions “Entrance To Metropolis” and “Keaton’s Theme”; the avant-garde and sublime 14-minute piece “Medium C”; and lastly the unforgettable dance floor masterpieces “The Bells” and “Sonic Destroyer”.
Jeff Mills said:
„There have always been so many questions put forth about just who we humans are and how we got here. Seemingly shipwrecked on gigantic floating rocks we call continents, humans have pondered these questions since the realisation of our own existence. The more we explore these questions, the more we must ask ourselves the single most important question: the question of ‚why?‘. Why are we here? Are we here by design or by consequence? In our busy lives, we have the few chances to occasionally look up into the blue sky. When we do, the sense of our world of blue ends when the blue fades to black (or is it really black?). There are a few of us who believe the opposite, that the human life begins just past the border of our imaginations. Whichever way you hold the truth, one thing is a commonality, we believe the answer lies beyond ourselves. So the questions persist.“
„The Blue Potential serves as just two of the many mysteries within our existence: the deep blue sky and the deep blue sea. Both vast universes of unknown answers to questions we’ve yet to realise.”
Im Februar haben die Innervisions-Leute und Henrik Schwarz eine gemeinsame Mix CD auf BBE veröffentlicht. Es geht um 50 Jahre Minimal als reduzierten musikalischen Ansatz und vielleicht auch als Hinweis, dass Minimal schon lange mehr ist, als der Hype um M_nus & Co der letzten Zeit. Wer die Jungs mag, wird auch diese Compilation mögen. Auf CD 1 gibt’s einen wirklich schönen, ruhigen und zugleich spannenden Mix, der für mich hier das Glanzstück der Compilation ist. Auf CD 2 findet sich dann eine Auswahl an minimalen Einzelstücken, welche dort -zusammen gesucht aus 50 Jahren Musikgeschichte- ungemixt für sich stehen. Dieses angestaubte 
This podcast was recorded at Rongos Karamea, New Zealand. I made it during my travels around Christmas / New Year 2007 and -in my opinion- this mix sounds still fresh. Many thanks to the lovely Rongo People Shona, Paul and Brian for the great time and making this possible.
