Dido Returns To Electronics On Fourth Album
Dido answered some fan questions on her official web site at DidoMusic.com, including from one wondering why her third album ‘Safe Trip Home’ doesn’t have electronic bits in it. The British singer songwriter responded:
I intentionally didn’t use any electronics on the 3rd album. It was a challenge that started as a small thought and then turned into a big theme of the record. We had a lot of fun creating sounds from all manner of instruments (bells, wind instruments, strings, brass, pots, pans, cans, sandpaper, anything). This was instead of using anything pre-programmed. It was a great learning experience for me and also made me a much better musician pretty quickly! It’s also making me really appreciate the joy of electronics again on this new album I’m making. It’s good to take a break and now I’m celebrating my electronic roots again. :-)
