Canadian artists Chromeo teamed up with Green Label Sound to offer their first original song in two years. “It’s both more disco and more classic rock than our previous stuff. It’s also the first time we try singing falsetto. We wanted a powerful, heroic track designed to provoke pelvic thrusting, coupled with sensitive lyrics about the fragility of relationships. Oh, and we had to get some talkbox in there, too. This was produced using nothing but analog gear in our new Montreal studio, and mixed in Paris by our cohort Philippe Zdar over the summer. With love, always.”
