Emile Haynie - We Fall

Featuring special guests Andrew Wyatt, Brian Wilson, Lana Del Ray, Lykke Li and more!

"Stop me if you think you've heard this one before: A successful pop producer with ties to Bruno Mars assembles an unlikely crew of guest stars to make his own album of classically minded songs. No, it's not Mark Ronson, who enlisted rapper Mystikal and novelist Michael Chabon to explore old-school funk and Steely Dan-style rock on the just-released Uptown Special. Instead, meet Emile Haynie, one of Ronson's creative partners on Mars' 2012 hit "Locked Out of Heaven." — The Los Angeles Times. Read the entire review here.

You may not be familiar with the name of Interscope Records recording artist Emile Haynie, but you've heard his work as a Grammy-winning producer/songwriter on Eminem's album Recovery, Kanye West's Runaway, Bruno Mars' Locked Out of Heaven, Lana Del Rey's album Born to Die and fun's Some Nights as well as on albums and singles by Pink, FKA twigs, Kid Cudi and Ghostface Killah, among many others.

Making his debut as a performer, the Buffalo native traveled from his New York City home for a stay in Los Angeles where he recorded his debut, We Fall, a narrative that details his recovery from a shattered romance. Along the way, he assembled an all-star cast — both of longtime friends and colleagues as well as idols he'd never met — including his good pal, Miike Snow's Andrew Wyatt along with Brian Wilson, Lana Del Rey, Rufus Wainwright, Randy Newman, Nate Ruess, Lykke Li, Charlotte Gainsbourg, The xx's Romy, the Zombies' Colin Blunstone, Father John Misty, Florence Welch, Sampha and Blood Orange's Devonte Hynes, among others.
