Robyn Talks Snoop And Single

 

It’s an attempt to have more fun while I’m working and not get stuck in the usual promotion circus.

 

I wanted to see if there was a way where I could record and tour at the same time. I’ve been releasing albums since I was 16 and this is one of the ways I’m trying to have more freedom. People are consuming music in a new way and you look stupid as an artist if you don’t recognise that.

 

 

They are different songs. They are the ones that we had finished when I had to send them off to the factory. Whatever was done I put on the album- it’s not complicated.

 

 

I made most of the album with Klaus (Ahlund), Diplo is on one of those tracks too, plus I worked with Swedish group Savage Skulls. And Snoop of course!

 

 

We hooked up in LA because we wanted to get in the studio properly after we did the Sensual Seduction remix. It was exciting because I’m a big fan and he’s really into music y’know.

 

 

He’s a great person. We were in the studio for three days together and Snoop is a funny guy, super-chilled and really down to earth.

 

 

Klaus wrote it but it sounded very different. It’s a song that he recorded with his ex-wife! He re-wrote it and I was bombarded by him with his old music. And out of that came a few songs. It was more like a ballad in the beginning. It’s a sweet song. Beautiful and bitter sweet, It’s about falling in love and being scared.

 

 

I wanted to see if it could be organic too, Like Twitter and my website. We decided to make something simple that gives the feeling of touring intensity. Max Vitali directed it and I wanted a video which connected back through the touring which I’m doing all year.
