Background
editLike its predecessor Nocturnes, Future Souls was recorded independently. The band also opted for a more dance-oriented sound. [2] Production began in 2013 when Grey and Hailey decided to start recording in their home.[3]
When asked how they have evolved as artists, Grey offers an insightful perspective. “I think it’s about the art of letting go. Not having preconceived expectations of what is going to come out of you. I think for me personally it was a really fluid process. I tried to have a lot more fun with the making of this record. We wanted to go back to our more electronic roots. We went back to the more crispy electronic vibe.” “We set out to make a dance record,” said Hailey.[4] Camila Grey also stated they got co-writers, such as Che Pope for "Nuthin Without Your Love" for the album as well.[5]
