James Iha is gonna be working with Annie

[Daysleeper]

He's going to be playing guitar on her new album, or producing it.

She's a norwegan pop/dance solo artist.

Had a song out called Chewing Gum in 2004 (me thinks) which is insanely good.

Yeah he remixed one of her songs recently, it was cute.

Norwegian DJ/singer Annie has roped in some famous pals to help out on her eagerly awaited new album.

Ex-Smashing Pumpkins/A Perfect Circle guitarist James Iha and dance producer Richard X will feature on the follow-up to 2003's 'Anniemal', which she hopes to release later this year.

She said: "The new songs are more club-oriented - still 80s-sounding, but different. But to be honest, I never really know what things will sound like until I finish the album. I'm sort of in the middle of the album. There's going to be a lot of different people, it's going to be more diverse, but I'm not quite sure which direction the production will go."

Annie told MTV she's not too worried about losing her core fanbase if she goes in a new direction.

She insists: "It's not going to be a blues album or a country album."

After she finishes recording with Iha in New York, she'll team up with French techno producer Alan Braxe (who worked on Stardust's 1998 worldwide hit 'Music Sounds Better With You') and then some yet-to-be-named collaborators.

There will be a single, 'Crush', released ahead of the LP.

heartbeat is the best track me thinks....

[PLEASE DON'T STEP ON ME]

Well I guess that's even more of a reason to believe that James won't be in the new incarnation of the pampkins

Not really, he could easily do both. Producing a couple of tracks is not a fulltime job.... but I don't think James will be in the NewPumpkins anyway...

Annie should be working with him right now.

Here is a snippet from a recent interview, clipped from The Varsity:


Annie: I'm writing new songs and melodies for a new record. We've already finished five songs so far. After Canada, we're going to spend three weeks in New York, which is going to be very exciting. We're going to do some work at James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins)'s studio down there.

The full interview is HERE (http://www.thevarsity.ca/media/storage/paper285/news/2006/03/16/ArtsCulture/EverMorphing.Annie-1688640.shtml?norewrite200604031160&sourcedomain=www.thevarsity.ca)

Annie is indeed in NYC at the moment.
