A lot of concrete buildings have been abandoned and nature wants its space back by trying to wrap and break them.
This is the concept behind the album: "Urbanature".

The tracks are heavily influenced by trip-hop and alternative sounds of '90s (Massive Attack, Portishead, Garbage, etc.)

All the photos for the sleeve cover art and labels and music video for "Darkside (a Way to Come Back)" are entirely my own productions.

Thanks to RYAL (Jacqueline Ryal) for lyrics and vocal on "What it's Worth"
