Swedish girl-power duo Icona Pop revealed the tracklist for its U.S. debut of "This Is...Icona Pop" yesterday.
To hype the LP's upcoming release, Aino Jawo and Caroline Hjelt collaborated with New York dance-rapper Zebra Katz (best known for "Ima Read") and unveiled a new cover track "My Party" (originally by Leslie Gore). Jawo and Hjelt met with Katz during the 2013 SXSW in Austin, Texas to have him write his verse.
They sample a broken-up, shouted version of Gore's chorus but have added original verses over a minimalist synth beat that screeches and hums. Overall, it is a fun cover that could easily be a new club anthem.
Listen to "My Party" here:
Included on the forthcoming "This is... Icona Pop" is the duo's double platinum hit, "I Love It," and their new single "All Night." A few songs from Icona Pop's older work, such as "We Got the World" and "Ready For the Weekend," made it on the tracklist as well. The album drops Sept. 24 on Record Company Tent/Big Beat.
