Jean-Michel Jarre became internationally famous with his number one hit album, Oxygène, which went on to sell over 18 million copies worldwide. Jarre has been a major player in the fastest-growing musical revolution of them all: Electronic Music. Led by sound rather than notes, the electronic composer was able to carve out his craft from first principles. It’s a pioneering approach that has given birth to a wealth of albums and collaborations, notching up over 80 million album sales to date.

Maude Vôs is an emerging LA-based electronic artist with several notable label releases and remixes to her credit. Maude’s creative locus is rooted in psychedelia, atonal percussion, and found sound experimentation. Inspired by polyrhythmic traditions and world influences, her works echo distant cultures while remaining true to vintage electronic production techniques. She’s produced for vocalists, film shorts, art galleries, and fashion shows, while putting out her own albums and remixes. Together with fellow LA-based artist Marie Nyx, Maude founded Delusional Records in 2021. Focusing on underground electronic music, largely derived from techno, the label focuses on women and non-binary artists who use hardware.
