First Jaime's Tone's Best Of available!
Jaime’s Tone is a rock project influenced by progressive rock and progressive metal -with its own touch. It was initiated in 2020 by Jaime, a composer/songwriter/arranger from Paris, France. ‘Jaime’ (pronounce “Jay-Me” as in English, same as the character of Game of Thrones®) is the artist’s name of Jacques Magen, a composer/songwriter/arranger from Paris, France. Jaime has been playing music since the age of 7. He first played the classical piano, and started discovering rock music in the late 70’s. He was particularly attracted to progressive rock, and then increasingly to hard rock, and later power metal and progressive metal. He played keyboards in a few bands and composed many pieces of music in the 80’s and 90’s. He then stopped music for a while as he was being too much involved in his professional duties, but has recently resumed his music career and started Jaime’s Tone.
Jaime is particularly fond of such bands as Ayreon, Avantasia, The Neal Morse Band, Redemption, and Threshold. He remembers kindly the 70’s and 80’s Kansas, Marillion and Meat Loaf, and still listens to Dream Theater and Symphony X. Other favorite bands of his include Alter Bridge, Delain, Sons of Apollo, Masterplan, and Within Temptation.
Jaime has been building his own home studio since 2019 and has been training with the latest music technology combined with some loving sounds from the past to resume his music career.
