07-09-2019 Who is Jean-Luc Ponty?

Discovered this guy by accident on YouTube while searching for 'Electronic Jazz Fusion' stuff; I am always interested in bands/artists from 'non-electronic' genres who experiment with synthesizers.

In the 80's there were actually a lot of Jazz bands who did this, Miles Davis, Weather Report, Yellowjackets, Herbie Hancock, Steps Ahead and many more...

Anyway, I especially like this guy - a french Jazz violinist - since he went a bit further, he not only used synthesized sounds, but he also did a lot of great sequencing, which you would only expect from the likes of somebody like Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze or Steve Roach.

Here some examples, the first video is actually one of the first video clips which uses time-lapse recording.
