RELEASE DATE

CD reissue of the 1977 album
Supernature
by French disco legend
Marc Cerrone
. Big hits can be the result of a combination of circumstances. Massively popular at the time, crowned with the success of
Love in C Minor
(BEC 5161903/5161904) and
Cerrone's Paradise
(BEC 5161905/5161906) that made him a disco hero of the '70s, the musician started working on his new album differently. This time, the inspiration came from a synthesizer, an instrument he had never used before. ARP, an American manufacturer, provided him with it. "I was given this machine and didn't know how to use it," he remembers. "I twiddled a few knobs, trying to get some sounds out of it. Then, as I was playing on the keyboard, a bass line came to me that I immediately recorded on my Revox. It was 'Supernature!'"
Lene Lovich
, future queen of the punk and new wave English scene, wrote the lyrics. It was a science fiction story, similar in spirit to
The Planet of the Apes
. Once the track and album were finished, Cerrone asked the record company to focus on "Supernature," rather than the rest of the record, in the vein of his previous work. History would prove him right. This track, the more iconic of his catalog, would turn out to be his biggest hit. This third album would sell eight million copies. Always a funny guy, Cerrone can be seen on the cover of the record, but without naked women. Creatures with animal-heads in a surgery room replaced them. It meant a mutant and more synthetic kind of disco was born.
