Our favorite Kiwi, Lorde, is back in the studio working on her sophomore album. Lorde’s Pure Heroine producer Joel Little revealed:
“We’re just going to start writing some songs. We haven’t got some planned out ‘This is what it’s going to sound like’… I think we’re just going to start writing and when it starts to feel right, we’ll know that it’s right. It’s pretty simple really.”
In a previous interview, Lorde revealed she wanted to take her time and focus on lyrics before the instrumentation of her album.
“For me I have to kind of write a project lyrically before I attack it musically. So I’ve written a lot of amazing stuff and I’m just tentatively starting to make it music.”
