RedOne Talks Making Magic With Lady Gaga

“The only thing we do is we get into the studio and suddenly magic happens. We never over-think, or we just do what we do. That’s how it all started. With ‘Just Dance,’ we did it in one hour. There was no over-thinking. Even though I remember when we did ‘Poker Face,’ people said musically it brought something new to the music and you won’t be able to top it, we went into the studio and we did ‘Bad Romance’ on a bus.

That explains how we do it, so I can’t tell you anything about what’s coming but that’s what we do. We just get in and do music we love and feel it, and thank God it comes out good.”

New Details On Lady Gaga’s Upcoming Album

Producer RedOne has been dishing out some new details this week on Lady Gaga’s upcoming third album.

RedOne told Billboard:

“It’s going to be shocking, shocking, shocking!”

“You never want to go too far from your brand — people love you for a reason. But we still want to give them something with a kick, something that makes them say, ‘Oh my God! We didn’t expect this!’

“When you heard ‘Bad Romance’ after ‘Poker Face,’ it was like the best thing you’ve ever heard,” he continues. “We want that type of reaction. I think that’s part of my job and her job — to keep her evolving. “

“It [Bad Romance] was really good musically but it was a bit too left. I asked her if we could take it more to the middle, and she said, ‘I’m open. Let’s do it,’”

RedOne told the BBC:

“When you see everyone singing along to something – that’s the goal. You know that the song is good. Especially in countries that don’t speak English.”

BBC: Is that why so many of your songs use nonsense words – like the “ra, ra, ra” refrain in Bad Romance?

“Of course. It’s the same with “ma ma ma ma” in Poker Face. Everything is a hook.”

It sounds like we can expect to hear a familiar sound from the two RedOne produced tracks on Lady Gaga’s album. Is that good or bad?
