This resulted in the birth of the catchy phrases “The Androids are coming” and “The Androids are here” with all 3 performers on the hook and we chopped the move dance walk talk like an android to be the other main hook I then recorded the android remaining vocals using my voice through a Korg Vocoder We decided to utilise Alan T ‘s recording to replace Lula ‘s vocals in that particular segment. In addition, we asked Alan T to re-record his own version of the phrase “The Androids.” I am sure you are familiar with Alan T: Club Space Miami host-extraordinaire and uber famous record performer with collaborations counting many top producers in the underground dance music industry including his and Lula’ s smash “There Is Only One” and also co-featuring alongside Papa Joe Aviance in our collaboration with Eddie Amador entitled NOW [Here with Danny Tenaglia performing it. Inspired by these 2 words connecting, we edited out “Are Coming To Town” and we incorporated a sample from Franklin’ s hit track seamlessly replacing Lula ‘s vocals that mentioned the same 2 words : “Are Coming”. Franklin “If Madonna Calls” Fuentes is the Self-proclaimed creator of the bitch track genre and undoubtedly one of the most emblematic voices of the New York queer underground. After recording and producing the original track that you hear, I was joined by Lilla to play with the vocals we embarked on a creative journey to have fun and create a captivating hook.ĭuring our exploration, Lula ‘s phrases “The Androids are coming to town” & “The Androids Are Here” brought to mind Franklin Fuentes “The Robots Are Coming” which also was released on KULT. So, we waved goodbye to the android extravaganza, at least for a little while.įast forward to 2023, we stumbled upon Lula’ s vocals tucked away in a forgotten digital folder. We had a gazillion other releases jostling for attention, including “There Is Only One” that took off running and Lula’s debut Album “The Underground Sounds Of Portugal and me”. Technical glitches got in the way, and before we knew it, the project was put on the back burner. We couldn’t wait to share Lula ‘s vocal magic with Alan T, who was her co-vocalist on “There Is Only One”.īut, fate had other plans. She recorded many funny vocal takes, chattering about these fashion-forward clubbers looking like androids with silicon skins strutting their stuff in Vuitton and Galiano. Shout out to Fatboy Slim, Eli Escobar and Jonathan Peters.Īmong Lula ‘s brilliant ideas was one that involved those clubbers who were so meticulously groomed and botoxed, they looked like they belonged in a futuristic android convention. “Hours of Dancing” was also sampled by Eli Escobar for his “NY So.Hi” single off of his debut Album by Night People. Lilla wrote the “Hours of Dancing” hooks but Lula had the idea of the club callings they merged the ideas. Those resulted in “ The Underground” by Jonathan Peters and “ Hours of Dancing” produced by me She also recorded songs that Lilla of KULT had written for her. One of those became “Last Night A Dj Saved My Life” (While Another One Gave Me Trouble) feat Papa Joe which reached Number 6 On the Top Dance Chart in Billboard Magazine ]. When Lula came from Austria to NYC in 2009 to shoot the Video of Lula vs Alan T “There Is Only One” she also came to the Studio and recorded a few vocal ideas that she had in mind. Lula needs no introduction to the world of the underground as she entered the speaker in 1997 serving up the vocals for the groundbreaking and chart-topping underground classic, “Goosebumps” by Nylx on Twisted America and has never left the woofer since. “Like an Android” which is out on June 2nd 2023 exclusively on Beatport for a month, all started with the inimitable force of nature that is Lula ! Could you elaborate on the creative process that was undertaken to produce ‘Like An Android’?Įddie Cumana – Thank you so much!
