Description: | racine carrée is ten years old. And weâ??re ten years older. We have all grown
up, matured. New people have arrived on Earth and they may have been given a
listen to the dozen songs that a young Belgian patiently created in his attic, then
honed as a team, before releasing in August 2013 what would become the
greatest French-speaking success of the decade.
Today, the disc still shines in the firmament: more than 6 million albums sold
worldwide, close to 6 billion streams, more than 2 billion cumulative views on the
music videos. The sales and streaming figures are dizzying, as is the list of prizes
and distinctions won. And the 209 dates of the triumphal tour that followed the
album are added to the list. From Brussels to Kigali, from Paris-Bercy to the
Madison Square Garden, from Werchter to Coachella, 2 years of whirlwind on
stages around the world where Stromae communed with more than 2 million
spectators.
racine carrée will have been a time marked by appearances as original as they
are remarkable.
We still remember his unforgettable entrance as a motionless model during the
15th edition of the NRJ Music Awards, reproducing the highlights of the
"Papaoutai" music video. Or the hidden camera carried out in the streets of
Brussels for the music video of "formidable" when Stromae seemed to wander
drunk, succeeding in fooling the world media and public.
Ten years later, the pride and joy of the work accomplished still remain intact and
this very special anniversary is an opportunity to look back and measure the
journey taken.
Through a reissue enriched with a photo book - a logbook of the album
and its XXL tour, Mosaert takes us back to the heart of this great adventure
thanks to unpublished archives. - 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITIONPaul van Haver, better known by his stage name Stromae, is a Belgian singer, rapper, songwriter and producer. He is mostly known for his music blending hip hop and electronic music. Stromae came to wide public attention in 2009 with his song "Alors on danse", which became a number one in several European countries'. Available in two formats, both the LP and CD will come with an exclusive limited edition book including exclusive photos from the Racine carrée era, song lyrics and explanatory texts on the creation of the project (text will be in French, but we're working on a multi-language translation via a QR code). The tracklist will be the same as the original album, except 1 track that will be removed ("AVF") because of rights issues. |
