Remember this artist name because he doesn't get enough credit for his contributions to the Disco Era. This man produced some of the most iconic tracks in that time period. Not just a national treasure but rather a global treasure. Thank Marc Cerrone for the beautiful memories you created in a time period that I will never forget. Keep producing your music. You haven't even touched the potential creativity that is still inside you.

I've never stopped playing Supernature since I found the record many years ago. I never get tired of it.

I became a victim of the song a few months ago. I'm still wondering how I didn't hear it sooner.

"Supernature" reminds me of what someone said about "I Feel Love" - "It's like being on drugs without doing drugs".

Good to see Cerrone for the first time in all these years. I was 13 when Supernature came out and it was one of the first records I ever bought. I'll never forget playing this over and over again on my uncles stereo system complete with disco lights and getting totally lost in the rhythm. A total classic.

That was my age then, too! I heard it in junior high school, they didn't call it middle school back then. My film teacher used to play it while we worked on cel animations. The intelligence and atmosphere of that album was a precursor to the industrial dance music ("IDM") of the '90s, like Front 242.

This man is a genius. Disco was incredible it made people sane again.

Supernature l'Album de Cerrone par excellence... Un pro, la nouvelle génération devrait s'en inspirer

What? I always thought Cerrone was a band, or at least a slender camp guy from New York who had died of Aids. And now I find he is a snarling hairy, snail-eating Frenchman!? I haven't been so shocked since I was twelve and discovered that the guy and gal behind "Body Talk" (Imagination) were two guys! Life is full of surprises. I was listening to Jean Michel Jarre as a 7 year old, and now he looks younger than I do. The French have all the fun.

My dad used to play this over and over again during Halloween in the 80's and it always intrigued and scared me. Especially the picture on the 8 track lol. Then I heard it or a version on Benny Hill. This song has a special place in my heart and I still want to hear the full story on what it is about...this has answered some of my questions. Thank you!

My father brought Cerrone's album back in the 70's when it first came out... It was the weirdest album cover I had seen at that time... completely different to anything I had ever seen and at 9 years old unbeknown to me then would be one of the most influential albums my father would play!.. especially Supernature.. It would lead me to Kraftwerk... Tangerine Dream and then the 80's explosion into synthesiser music... Gary Numan.. Thomas Dolby... Howard Jones... OMD... Depeche Mode... The Human League and many many more amazing artists!!... All from just one song!!... Thankyou so much Mr Cerrone!!! 😊.. from a now 52 year old.🤓

Without even hearing it, I bought my first Cerrone album (Love In C Minor) in 1976 purely based on its striking artwork (the US version with the clenched hands) and because it was in my local shop's "DISCO" bin. 44 years later and I'm still a fan.

Funny you should mention the cover art because when I posted one of his songs (can't remember now, memory lapse now and then), I was censored by FB for what they considered below their "standards".

Supernature j'ai dû l'écouter 1000000 de fois et je trouve ce morceau simplement génial. Cerrone était un grand visionnaire en 77 personne ne croyait en lui et il a vendu 8 millions de Supernature!!!

Outstanding sounds on Arp....great decade....superb state of art !!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗👍👍👍👍👍

For thirty years this song is in my head! At times it has become very scary...

One of my top disco songs of all times. I was only 7yrs old. Love it

Cerrone you are a legend, the disco-dancers bow at you!

I grew up listening to Cerrone. My speaker system suddenly sounded better 🤣🤣 Super nature a pure dance track that was so different to most music made in the 70s. And then Gorgio Moroder with Donna summers. This was classy electronic Thank you for the Music 👌

Monsieur Marc Cerrone un monument de la musique disco des années 70 !! super musicien de studio et multi instrumentiste une référence absolue ! et connu sur toute la planète !.

Cerrone, one of my musical heroes, Disco 4 ever

I have this on vinyl, walked into my shop and bought it instantly, such a classic.

So pleased Cerrone credited the wonderful legendary Lene Lovich for her big impact on 'Supernature'.She also did a lot of top notch blood curdling screams for 'Hammer' horror films in those days.Reg Plasma x

Cerrone, j'écoutais Supernature à 5 ans, aujourd’hui à 45 ans c'est toujours l'un de mes tubes favori , indémodable et magique ce titre;)

J’aime ce son, merci Cerrone , je suis trop fan de ces magnifiques années Effectivement avec THE Impact la boucle est.bouclé mais ça reste toujours aussi prenant à l’écoute Love Cerrone for Ever.❤️❤️❤️❤️..

This is the long of disco..my uncle brought back the album from Australia to NIGERIA 77... was my childhood was made of... Wow to see he is still around

After the pure brilliance of "Love in C minor" and the lackluster copy of "Cerrone's Paradise", "Supernature" was a shock to the system! Fortunately I gave it a chance and realised it was progression. Something Cerrone was never frightened of. Glad I am here in 2020 and he is still going strong and never forgot his roots!!

Because of you, Jean Michael Jarre and Kraftwerk, music is my life. What I learned in music I learned from you and Supernature when I was a little kid. Thank you Marc, from the bottom of my heart💙

Producers today dont know the struggle these guys had to endure. We are talking hours of recording just to get one sequence right. Errors can be rectified in seconds now. We owe lots to the techniques of Cerrone and Moroder etc

@Hernán Hardy Go look at synth demos, most of them suck. Usually it's just one guy who plays some random notes trough an arpeggiator while changing the filters over and over. Seems like every kid with a pirated version of Fruity Loops can call himself a producer nowadays lol. Go listen to Synthwave, it used to be good till those kids "discovered how awesome the 80s used to be" and completely ruined the genre with their crap.

Timeless music... Cool one!

Bref, simple et efficace. Merci Cerrone!

Sounds awesome, Cerrone is a legend

Un cours de prod , merci Marc Cerrone (nous habitions dans le même quartier !) fan à vie ! (un batteur -compositeur pro.)

slowing down the drums to half time and overdubbing with the synth makes the song sync even better than playing on the grid with quantize. it's tighter and more human at the same time. think i'll try this myself. dude was ahead of his time and got a nice balance of pride and humility

Avait pris au moins des semaines voir des mois à finaliser. Comme quoi ... Bravo, bravo Mr Cerrone pour votre œuvre . Vos vinyls tournent encore sur mes platines et ont encore ces effet im-pa-rables, le sourire et la danse. Merci.

Damn man. I like his production insight.

real perfect track from Cerrone, my favorite 70's music!

i could listen to him talking about the music biz in french all day, even though i dont speak french very well i would still understand lol

Maximum respect and ammiration, master Jean Marc. Thank you Fact for having poster this interview.

Salut tout le monde, quel super moment vraiment très agréable avec Cerrone une très bonne idée cette interview. Merci à FACTMagasin et à Cerrone . Cordialement. Pascal (ps) Toute ma jeunesse.

This classic remains one of my all time favorites and to see the story of it and how it comes full circle into a new track is incredible. Cerrone is truly a pioneer in electronic dance music. This one’s well deserved all about Cerrone who is the first I was aware of back then, but the other two pioneer producer/musicians for me in this class are Giorgio Moroder and Gino Soccio. So glad I grew up appreciating good music in various styles and genres. Chicago born and raised, I still remember when those idiots called themselves blowing up Disco at Cominsky. Good music never dies. At the same time as “Disco Demolition” it was already evolving. I saw disco live on and continue into “House” and other forms and the rest as they say, is history.

Thanks for putting this out. Cerrone is one of the four Disco gods, and many of us danced for hours to his music. It still sounds excellent.

Je me rappelle d une interview croisée de lui et de jean michel jarre qui était passée sur antenne 2 dans les années 80 en pleine nuit et qui durait 2h j ai pris une claque en voyant c est 2 exceptionnels musiciens qui bien que n ayant pas le même parcours avaient tellement de points communs au niveau vision de la musique et surtout de l avenir de celle ci. Je n ai jamais pu retrouver cet émission malheureusement. Cerrone pour moi reste celui qui a fait a fait découvrir la disco en france tout en étant produit par aucunes maisons de disque francaises ce qui est un comble. Les génies ne sont jamais reconnus dans leur pays.

Merci pour l'interview de ce monsieur de Légende !

J’ai entendu l’album Cerrone 3 « Supernature » pour la première fois en août 1978 chez des amis chez qui j’étais en vacances. J’avais alors presque 13 ans et l’audition de ce disque a provoqué en moi mon premier émoi artistique. C’était la première fois qu’une musique m’allait droit au cœur sans passer par quelque filtre que ce soit. Je suis immédiatement allé acheter une cassette pour enregistrer ce chef d’œuvre. De retour à la maison, j’ai demandé à mes parents de m’acheter l’album. Depuis ce temps, il ne se passe pas une semaine sans que je m’en délecte. J’ai bien sûr acheté le CD dès sa sortie, et là, grosse déception : l’intro de Supernature est amputée de plusieurs mesures par rapport au 33 tours. Je me suis toujours demandé pourquoi un tel sacrilège. Pour moi, Cerrone c’est le maître du Disco, le vrai, pas le commercial, celui qui après plus de 40 ans ne parvient pas à vieillir, celui qui vous colle au siège, celui que vous voulez écouter dès que les premières notes retentissent. Merci monsieur Cerrone, pour moi, Cerrone 3 est au Panthéon de la musique.

What a genius, that song still sounds so freshly sequenced (technically speaking) compared to so many cheesy disco songs.

They should really start to make videos like these more frequently so that we can learn how they made tracks back in the day

Excelente! I remember when I first heard Supernature it was on summer vacation in Bethlehem, PA lots of memories I applaud your genious on Supernature, God bless you man! P.S on a side note my son Adriel Cruz - adrielcruznow also known as S K R I P also from a young age started producing music and is still today! Thank you Cerrone!

I first heard the William Orbit remix of Erasure's cover of Supernature about 30 years ago in high school, it was an extra track on the 'Blue Savannah' CD single. A few years later I went to school in Lille (France) and was heavily into the local techno/club scene, I used to buy records on the weekends in the local second-hand shops. I came across Cerrone's 'Supernature' on a gatefold vinyl. I had no idea who he was, didn't even know the Erasure tune was a cover at the time, but I recognised the name 'Supernature' and bought it for something cheap like 7FF just to see if was good or not. I prefer the William Orbit remix of Erasure's cover to the original, but only probably because it had blown my mind away so much when I first heard it that nothing was ever going to make me like a different version of it. However, the gatefold of the original is awesome on so many levels, I will never give up my copy. I like to pull it out for Erasure friends so they can hear the original, Cerrone isn't super well-known among people my age in the US. Great interview, glad to know that I understood most of it without needing to read the subtitles :)

Trop cool 'e maitre" Mister cerrone ❤️👍👍

Great interview!!

Cette chanson m’est restée en tête depuis mon tout jeune âge et je la fait maintenant connaître à une nouvelle génération, mon jeune fils m’a avoué hier que cette chanson lui restait dans la tête également… Enfin voilà: Cerrone, un créateur avec beaucoup de génie.

Supernature became one of my favorite songs after first hearing it in Gaspar Noe's film "Climax", I probably will dance to it for the rest of my life

great interview thank you

"But then it was missing a kick. So i recorded it tapping a mic like everyone did back in the day." God dam. When i first started and got my hands on a mic, i remember experimenting with recording knocking sounds with a mic, including tapping the mic, all because i wanted that whack and knock of the kick drums i liked from records, and by accident i found it wasn't too bad. But i just didn't know how to treat the audio after to make it work. Love this craft !

He's fascinating! He makes a strong statement about the quality of the music currently in vogue. "Sequencing the hard way" was the order of the early-mid 70's. He evidently get caught up in the atmosphere, the vibe of his new creation, considering he made it in one go. Thankfully, Lena Lovich made a great contribution. I have a plenty of respect for the guy. It would be nice to run into him on the street, somewhere in France in 3 weeks.

Great video of the one of the pioneers of disco 🕺

I love Cerrone. It’s a shame we do t hear about him more often. Supernature has to be a masterpiece, it’s such a catchy, groovy, electronic, atmospheric, disco song. With fast drums and rhythmic and mighty synthesizers, it makes for a really superb and excellent song. His other song The Impact I haven’t listened to, but from a snippet of a remake on Logic Pro that he did, it sounds equally atmospheric and brilliant! What a musical legend and one of the early strong pioneers of electronic disco music.

I am so deeply fond of "Supernature". My film teacher in 7th grade played this album while we worked on cel animations. I was entranced with the spookiness of it, compared to other disco/dance music, which was about nothing but dancing and fucking. (And often with "dancing lyrics" being merely an acceptable way of singing about fucking.) I bought Cerrone 3 and played it over and over again. Then I bought other albums by him and was so disappointed. That atmospheric storytelling was absent, the science fiction wasn't there. It was basic disco about dancing and fucking. Just today I discovered Lene Lovich actually wrote the lyrics to "Supernature". That explains a lot! I do want to hear "The Impact", as it seems he's now revisiting that territory I was so fond of again!

Mitico li mettevo in discoteca nei miti anni 70' precisamente 1977!quando facevo il dj grande ho tutti i tuoi duschi

Excellent video. I am a survivor of the '70s gen of gay men and we helped propel "Supernature" to the hit status it deserved. It sounded great on a dance floor! I don't know who influenced who but Giorgio Moroder came along about the same time. I did not know Cerrone was still around, let alone that he was still making great and apparently politically conscious music so will check "The Impact" out.
