Yukimi Nagano

I feel like I’m still learning a lot with writing lyrics. In the beginning, like the first record, I wasn’t so aware.

I feel like there are a lot of artists that you could put together that you love, but it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s going to make amazing music. Giving an artist a great theme to write about doesn’t mean the song’s going to be good.

I think that kind of balance comes with the process of growing together as a band, the Little Dragon. We love to write, we love to create, we love to play live, and I think we love and appreciate what we have together. How that evolves, and how we balance it, is something that’s come with time. At the start we were all like, “Tour tour tour. We just want to play. That’s all we want to do.”

Keeping your sanity is sometimes stalling the business aspect of things and being OK with saying no to certain things. Sometimes I just need to be home and write in my diary every day and take long walks. Or just dancing – I have a few dancer friends, and I go to their places and drink tea, and put on these long electronic mixes; maybe smoke a joint, you know? I like to be in nature, and swim in the Swedish sea, and spend time with family.

Now you know you’re going to have to play music for the label, you know you’re going to have to get an opinion from the manager. Now, I’m so much more conscious and it bothers me. I try to find my way back to writing without being too analytical or not thinking about whether this is good or is it bad.

There are times when we in Little Dragon write from scratch together, but everyone has their own lives, so it just seems to make sense when everyone starts an idea on their own and we sort of meet somewhere along the way. I’m at the studio all the time because I live there, but the guys will have different schedules. It’s easier to start an idea with your own thoughts, rather than having to compromise from the start.
