Beabadoobee might be workinig again with Chino Moreno (Deftones)

Pop rock artist Beabadoobee released her fourth studio album, “Pylon”, on September 18, featuring a star-studded lineup of guest appearances, as per theprp. Among the notable collaborations on the record are Turnstile vocalist Brendan Yates on “Powerlines” and Paramore‘s Hayley Williams on “Nothing To Prove.”

The album’s closing track, “Satellite,” features Deftones frontman Chino Moreno and was co-written by Title Fight’s Shane Moran. During a recent appearance on Amoeba Music’s “What’s In My Bag?” web series—prompted by her picking up a vinyl copy of Deftones‘ classic 2000 album “White Pony” — Beabadoobee spoke about her admiration for both acts and her experience collaborating with Moreno. She also revealed that the pair actually recorded two tracks together during the “Pylon” sessions, with the second unreleased song slated to arrive at a later date.

[It’s] like one of the best albums of all time, I think. All their albums are incredible and their new one [“private music] is literally up there, which is insane, Like you still got it, bro. I’ve been privileged enough to work with Chino on my new record. He screams with me on the last song. We actually made two songs together. You know, eventually we’ll put [them both] out ’cause I love ’em so much. But yeah, all I really needed was to scream with Chino. You know, it’s a dream come true.

The thing about Deftones is that their riffs go so hard, and their drum beats go so hard, and then Chino‘s vocals and melodies just soar over it like freakin’ Frank Sinatra or something crazy, you know? Like it’s so melodic what he does. And often when I found like when we were working in the studio together, he’d like come up with prettier… Like I was like, ‘All right, so we’re going to scream and like do this shit, like yeah.’

And then he would like like come up with the most beautiful melodies.” [And I’m like, ‘This dude rocks.’ And we went to a horror nights which was lit… I love him so much. He’s like my main inspiration of how I move on stage, especially with like this new record. Like he moves like a rapper, and then someone jumped in front of him [at the horror nights event] and he did the move. He was like ‘whoa.’ And I’m like, ‘Oh my God, he did it. He did the thing.” But he doesn’t know ’cause he’s just so naturally cool. God. Oh. To be that naturally cool. Wonder what that’s like?
