*Morning Mars *opens the dance with a fascinating approach to enjoy music. The album is enriched with Virtual Reality content, immersive sound, a webgame and the tuning of some tracks in 432hz like Verdi did. Go to www.collateralnature.com to find all immersive content.
*Side A*
*Morning Mars* is the title track of the album and inspiration fore album cover artwork: giant hands digging the Martian soil. The track carries a clear message which is also the manifesto of Collateral Nature:
Once our planet is consumed, we are ready to colonize another one (Mars in this case) and repeat the cycle. Morning Mars comes with a Virtual Reality clip.
*Tre* or three is the ideal set up I always imagined to have on stage for Collateral Nature. Written in one go with a precise bass line in mind, the song is as simple as it is hypnotic. The track supports the evolution of the Rhodes piano and the drums that draw you into the psychedelic soul of the track.
*Sea of Clouds *represents the dialogue between electronic and jazz as the master creating a dreamy song like laying on your back looking at the clouds on a spring day. The refrain is supported by minimal glitch architectures with deep bass and ambient pads, while the restart with the Wurlitzer piano and double bass complements the Collateral Nature style nicely.
*Le Noire* is an instrumental funk track commissioned to me for the promotional campaign of an international brand many years ago. It came spontaneously to me to take back the funk vein and rework it in a Collateral Nature key.
*Heap of Stars:* I had this downtempo environment with trip hop references in mind in which vocal melody creates the perfect symbiosis and starry night matching the lyrics. Listen to believe.
*Side B*
*Tyger Tyger, Burning Bright* is inspired by the works of the English poet William Blake. I interpreted the energy of the tiger masterfully described by the English poet. The moog riff forms the backbone of this electro funk piece.
*Lost Music* talks about the difficulties and the romanticism encountered in the suburbs where youthful energy collides with the reality of a future that has very little to offer.
*Alice Harris* is dedicated to Alice Harris, the first reporter of modern times (late 19th century). Thanks to the publication of her images in international newspapers of the time, she stopped the brutal violence carried out by the Belgian king in Congo. The song echoes sounds of ambient jazz. The track is produced in 432hz tuning.
*Way out* has a tight beat, biting chords and a counterpoint bass line as its ingredients. This killer track demands to be listened to in one breath.
*Breathe! Robot *is an invitation to stop for a moment and breathe deeply, to understand the difference between automaton and being aware. It comes with a WebGL game.
Nature is collateral when it undergoes a distortion, a deep force in its vital course and is therefore destined to change. I imagined a project that could narrate this metamorphosis by choosing the butterfly, a symbol of fragility and elegance, and an interpreter of this distorted nature.

lyrics
WAY OUT
A smile open wide A pink heart
She lies to herself With dry eyes Doing good deeds She got no needs You want to forget Poor words
Way out
Of beliefs
Freedom
From your thoughts Way out
Of your wit Spring up For love
The fifties
Winds and skirts
You want to forget
The bad words
She says you can't write with the left Freedom from your thoughts
She doesn't know
The pain you feel
Way out of your wit
She'll give you candy till she can
She gives you presents
And poison
She doesn't know the pain you feel A smile open wide
A black heart
She loves herself
With dry eyes
Way out
Of beliefs
Freedom
From your thoughts Way out
Of your wit Spring up For love
