Rad. Is Anti worth a listen?
Well, Iāll be damned!
I didnāt realise Sophie produced on Anti at all. Anyone know which tracks?
The Charli XCX EP he did is phenomenal though. One of my favourite releases of last year.
Hm, Work sounds like it could have a bit of 
on it.
Yes.
Is that Vroom Vroom?
Yes. I really, really rate it. Though most people Iāve raved about it to have hated it, haha. I donāt think many Charli XCX fans liked it.
The title track has some fierce FM machine business happening.

I honestly donāt really know who Rihanna is (I mean, I know the name and that sheās some big pop star, but Iām blissfully out of the loop), but I have an unreasonable amount of love for SOPHIE, so Iāll have to check this out. Nice find, OP!
Elektron, I still think it would be amazing if you would follow up the SOPHIE interview you did a few years back (which I blame for turning me onto him) with a more in-depth exploration into how he uses the Monomachine for his music.

Just listened, really enjoyable in a reckless pop way. Put her older album on after and it doesnāt have the same satisfying sheen.

Have you heard her?
I think her approach to sound design is incredible.
Also the most creative approach to MnM i have heard

Yeah, so amazing. Sheās quickly surpassing Autechre as my favourite sound designerā¦ which is a big call for me.

Wonder how much MnM she uses in her trax?
Sounds great
For live sets uses cdj and monomachine only, and you can see all the weird clang/glup/sci-fi comes from the mono
