}} ''As If!'' is the debut extended play (EP) by American recording artist Sky Ferreira. It was released on March 22, 2011 by Capitol Records, in place of her frequently-delayed debut studio album, which eventually became ''Night Time, My Time'' (2013). Its lead single "Sex Rules" was released on March 1, 2011. ==Background== Ferreira, who had been in contact with music from an early age, started recording professionally when she was 14. This move was done by Ferreira after going to a Daft Punk concert, which she credited with having "changed () life"; she also started going to nightclubs and listening to dance music. From there on, Ferreira began making several demos with friends on audio-specializing program GarageBand, and uploading them onto her MySpace account.〔 Ferreira also featured a remix of the song "Teen Lovers" by American band The Virgins, produced by The Shoes and gained attention online peaking atop The Hype Machine chart. After the production duo Bloodshy & Avant noticed them, Ferreira was introduced to several "major" record labels which became interested in signing her, as well as producers who wanted to work with her. That interest led to a bidding war between several labels, who according to Ferreira, viewed her as a "way of making money". Due to promises that she would have "creative freedom" and control, Ferreira ultimately opted for EMI Music. Six months after, she realized that those claims were false, as the executives at the label largely controlled her creative decisions. While recording, Ferreira started working with independent producers, such as Paul Epworth, however the label suggested collaborations with more known musicians—for example, Dr. Luke—as part of a process which was described as "mould()" Ferreira "into the perfect little pop robot".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「As If!
