Ellie Goulding Teams Up With Skrillex And Swedish House Mafia For New Track

Brostep producer Skrillex has reportedly recorded a track with girlfriend Ellie Goulding and superstar production team Swedish House Mafia.
The new song may even feature on Goulding's new album, her first since her sensational debut album 'Lights' hit shelves back in 2010, and was created during a non-serious jamming session which Swedish House Mafia's Sebastian Ingrosso described as 'no pressure, just fun'.
Speaking to Billboard, Ingrosso said: “We made a demo and it was amazing; we had a blast… Ellie is a great artist... her voice is amazing. Skrillex, enough said, he is Skrillex. Ellie and Skrillex came in 30 minutes late, and we had already started with a melody. Skrillex freaked out, he loved it, and after a few hours we wrote the song.”
It's not the first time Goulding has worked with other artists recently, with the star reportedly spending studio time with pop singer Mika. She also recently spoke about her forthcoming album, revealing: “It's started to sound very dark and very weird. This album is going to be even more emotional. I wanted to make it so there is hope. I want to make an effect whether it's happy or sad.”
