[cashcomesquick 5,381]

It was a fucking joke, Christ.

Calm down:*

[Unknown 3,176]

@@Eclipse are we talking like Honeymoon the song

[viagra 1,642]

I would die for Alain Johannes. They would match perfectly in my opinion.

[NEAL 740]

Martin Karl Sandberg

His sound is literally everywhere in generic pop music. Why need to bring another Max Martin album ?

[Shades 1,700]

Am I the only one that misses the overdone production on BTD and wants it back

yes i would say that is an accurate statement

[PARADIXO 32,976]

In a perfect and paralell PARADIXO world, Lana is dating the genius of our generation and currently making the best album of all time with him.

 

Wayne Coyne, Drew Vandenberg, Mike Will Made It, Chris Coady, Ariel Pink, Clams Casino among others would be fantastic too.

as anyone who knows me can guess, i would be all here for a full-circle collab between lana and david kahne-- after the sameness i perceived in the HM tracks, i would love to see lana return to david's production that worked so well on AKA-- tailored to now suit a more mature lana.

Dan Auerbach but I doubt that would ever happen again.

I'd die if they worked together again. Lana's songwriting has improved so much since AKA and it'd be so amazing to hear what they come up with

[FROGGO 2,806]

My vote is for Ariel Rechtshaid or Dev Hynes!!

Really? I think it's regressed

[evilentity 13,348]

bring back David, Lana Del Ray 2.0. I want some properly released, matured to fit current Lana, kitschy Lizzy songs. Just because.

 

Steve Mertens or equivalent for a revisited punk rock sound. Show me your hands mother fucker.

This.

 

Or from the many producers she worked with on unreleased stuff, I'd love for her to work with The Flight or The Rural again.

 

As for someone new she should work with, T Bone Burnett:

 

 

 

[LAman 3,224]

She should really work with Dan the Automator after the next album. He can for sure bring Lana back to trip hop in a better and unique way.

[annedauphine 35,948]

I don't know anything about producers at all but I'm 1000% pop trash and I want Pete Ibsen back

[Wild One 3,306]

Rick Nowels, Justin Parker and Emile Haynie for her next album would be great.

[Chris Cuomo 3,322]

i want her to work w rick rubin again tbh!

[BENTLEY 3,495]

Paul Epworth

 

He's worked with the likes of crystal castles,adele and F+TM. He is fantastic in my opinion. He's worked in so many genres of music. Paul could potentially bring something new to the table for Lana. Something fresh and exciting...

 

 

He ruined Black Beauty so no thanks

[butterflies 3,040]

with me tbh

While I understand people being uncomfortable with Rick Nowels after Honeymoon, I'll point out that she was listed as lead writer and PRODUCER on HM, which does imply a "yes-man" role for Rick (or that he wants to put the blame for commercial returns squarely on LDR). However, I prefer to think of him as being devoted to translating her vision for a song as faithfully as possible. It doesn't mean he and Kieron didn't supply her with ideas. Other than that I hope he's encouraging her to get better at whatever musical techniques she relied on before she worked with producers (e.g., guitar, garageband, a cappella recording) to communicate with producers. I'll also mention that there is a breed of singer/songwriter that is self-produced (Kate Bush, Tori Amos, Catpower) and maybe LDR is evolving that way. On the other hand working with producers is probably what taught her the most and would continue teaching her stuff, so perhaps a compromise would be for her to revisit and finish off her older stuff with logical producers (as Lizzy Grant or May Jailer) while simultaneously developing however she likes (as Lana del Rey). 

 

I'm encouraged by her saying the next one is "in the same aesthetic" (musically) as HM, as it lowers everybody's expectations, which is in contrast to her previously saying HM was going to be like BTD, which I think she knows really backfired for her (given nobody agreed with her). Lowering expectations is reasonable if she wants to stay non-mainstream. However, I do believe she's going to do just what she wants on the next one, as she always does.

 

The label issue: I'm wondering if her stance with Interscope is something very provisional as in an album-by-album basis, given she's exerting the creative control she does on her records. Something like: "you want another album from me?" and they say "sure". I mean if they're not promoting her expensively why should they care to lock her in to multi-record deal, and if she wants to exert creative control why should she want a multi-record deal? I mean it's not like there aren't independent labels out there she could move to for a next album. But maybe I'm just naive.
