Phantogram Reveal Who "Fall In Love" Was Initially Intended For and More
Phantogram flew to Lollapalooza straight from Australia, where the electrorock duo was touring in support of 2013's self-titled smash. Though they're still a little bleary-eyed from jet lag, they rocked Lolla the only way they know how, and they had some serious secrets to share with Fuse backstage about future collaborations and more.
First of all, "Fall In Love" wasn't supposed to be a Phantogram single, but a track laid down for an epic rapper to rhyme over, according to Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter. "It's actually an old idea, an old beat that Josh made five years ago," Sarah says of the song. "When we were waiting to release Eyelid Movies, we had a space of time to work on music, and Josh made the beat. It was intended to just be for an instrumental or for an MC to rap over, but that never ended up happening. I always remembered how much I loved it, so I grabbed it from him. I had a bass synth in mind for it, and it kind of just evolved from there."
