    A sonic adventure best enjoyed with very good headphones. [Dec 2022, p.85]

    For the most part, Jarre has effectively dovetailed repetitive drum patterns, slow-rising, siren-like synths and processed voice on Oxymore – making this a pretty dancefloor friendly record. However, tracks like ‘Synthy Sisters’ and ‘Epica’ are not devoid of their monotonous moments that seem to tune out in comparison with his penchant for the agile textures of musique concrète.

    The spacious, stereo-panning "binaural" sound mix works particularly well as a headphones album. [Dec 2022, p.29]
