Feu! Chatterton | Monde nouveau
‘Talking with friends, we spoke about challenges like global warming, the exploitation of natural resources to the point of depletion, the idea of always optimising our time and energy and using them productively, the tendency to forget how to play…’ these are the things that motivated Feu ! Chatterton to write the song ‘Monde nouveau’.
