TN: 192 TROYE SIVAN & TYDE LEVI - PREVIEW 2! (Patreon)

In our latest episode, John is joined by Troye Sivan and producer Tyde Levi to talk about how they wrote, recorded and produced the album ‘She’s the Best’.

Troye Sivan is an Australian singer-songwriter and producer. He signed with EMI aged just 18 after building a global following as a teen YouTuber. Troye has since released three acclaimed albums blending electropop and dance: ‘Blue Neighbourhood’ (2015), ‘Bloom’ (2018) and the Grammy-nominated ‘Something to Give Each Other’ (2023). His fourth album, ‘She’s the Best’, arrived in October 2026, produced by his brother Tyde Levi and others.

Sitting down at Platoon Studios, the trio discuss the different process Troye took on this record. He and Tyde talk about what collaborating together and more widely, including with Jack Antonoff, brought to the album’s sound. Troye discusses producing his own vocals across the record and the vocal chain he uses for home recording. They discuss how the Madonna sample on the album came to be, dig into numerous early demos and instrumentals, plus much more!

Tracks discussed: Party, Cowboy, Canada Dry
