MD: The 4AD session video from 2011 is a nice way to see and hear you up close. The drum sounds vary so much, even though you’re playing an acoustic kit. How are you controlling that?
Simone: With the setup I mentioned earlier, so by then it was Ableton Live and the SPD. I love playing with other drum parts that I create, and I always try to make us blend as much as possible. I had the SPD trigger some sounds as well. That record, Penny Sparkle, is a dense one. The producers, which were two of the members of Fever Ray, had a lot of input in the sounds and direction. The record is a bit of a challenge to reproduce live, so it’s great to have the 4AD session to document that performance.
