Got an idea for a hit? Just rap on our door, say Clean Bandit

CLEAN Bandit have adopted an open door policy in their bid to move into the Grime scene.

The Rockabye hitmakers told Guilty Pleasures they’re working with one chap who knocked on the door and refused to go away.

‘Sometimes people just walk into the studio off the street and we still record with them,’ said singer Grace Chatto. ‘We made a really cool Grime track like that. A rapper in South Kilburn knocked on the door and demanded to be recorded.’

Other tactics for team-ups include giving Chatto ‘a few gin and tonics, a pack of ciggies and just firing her off’, said bandmate Jack Patterson. ‘It usually works,’ said Chatto, 31, crediting their collab with Sean Paul. They’re also working with Sir Elton John on a track for their second album out ‘this year, hopefully’, she added.
