For this final volume in the Antena album trilogy, Isabelle Powaga and Penelope Fasy decided to rummage through the attic and dust off some classic Roland equipment: the TR-808 drum machine, TB-303 Bassline sequencer and SH09 monophonic synth - all used to great effect on the classic debut Antena album Camino del Sol in 1982.
Adding to the retro theme, old schoolfriend Jean Christophe Clair was invited to contribute lyrics and ideas in remembrance of times past. Isabelle Antena arranged and produced the songs with her husband Denis Moulin at their studio in the south of France, with Marco De Meersman adding extra percussion. Thus Bossa Super Nova was born.
Straight to the Point pays homage to Serge Gainsbourg and Pierre Henri, while Under Your Closed Eyelids featured in season two of TV show The Boondocks.
