Close to a rap energy....
Major Kami's voice is slamming, expressing emotions of disturbed feelings that deliberately give depth to the text. The music, active like a temporary madness, takes us with it, making sure to convey a message that goes beyond us, like a missed act.

Is it possible to avoid the worst? 
Terry Burns disappeared under a train. His choice was stronger than he was. These acts are seen as madness, but who knows what deep wounds animate this despair?
Ernest Hemingway said that his father was a coward for killing himself...but he himself, years later, provoked this act!

Skandal takes you into a catchy alternative electro-pop, with an 80's vibe chorus, ending with an instrumental and a repetitive vocal rhythm that is just there to make you dance and hum the "Skandal tune" with Major Kami.
 You can easily imagine it in the next season of Stranger Things!

Skandal is about difference, about looking at the misfits in our society... Scandalous/androgynous/artistic/free of our appearances, the song also celebrates those of us who don't quite fit in.

Major Kami said:
"Denis Expert asked me to try and come up with lyrics for this song following a trick called "cut up", well known to David Bowie. This technique comes from the writer William S Burroughs.
So I printed off Bowie's biography from his website and began reading, highlighting anything cool that popped up!
After many edits, Smuggle in the Strange is the final result.

This cover we are designing, dedicated to David Bowie, brings another look at the artist's rock interpretation thanks to the electropop arrangements of music producer Dan Burkhart and the voice of Major Kami, who performs a sort of "question and answer" by doubling his voice, one of which follows David Bowie's melodic line.                                                                          
Moderne Love is the first track of David Bowie's album "Let's dance". The song was inspired by Little Richard. The theme is a struggle between God and man.

MODERN LOVE (cover David Bowie)

Last Killer is a song about the damages caused by the ego and how it keeps us from meeting one another with compassion and empathy. It is also a song about the state of the world and the global effects of the ego. The world is run in such a way that we are pushed to put up our defences when what we truly crave is to feel connected. We have forgotten how to be open minded and open hearted. As a result, our planet can no longer support these conditions, the continents are slipping away from it and all its occupants with them; everything is moving away from a balanced system that our earth so dared to hope for. Last Killer asks us to change ourselves so that we may change the world.
