Produced by Feadz, J-Mat, Mr. Oizo, Mirwais and SebastiAn, the album features guest appearances by Pharrell Williams and Mattie Safer from indie rock band The Rapture, and includes a cover of Siouxsie and the Banshees' 1978 song "Hong Kong Garden", which Uffie said was one of her favorite songs. The album was ranked at number 35 on Drowned in Sound's list of the best albums of 2010, and was also included on year-end lists by several other publications. It was also announced in 2011, that the album had been nominated at the French Victoires de la Musique for Best Electronic Album. ==Release== Uffie's record label Ed Banger Records first stated in late 2006 that her debut album would be released "mid-to-late 2007", then "sometime in 2008". Hectic traveling and touring schedules, her marriage and divorce, news of her pregnancy and growing as an artist delayed the release of the album. She stated that her new sound is very different with a much more mature sound and there would be more singing on the album than her previous EPs. She describes the album as "schizophrenic" and "worth the wait". On October 3, 2009, Busy P, founder and owner of Ed Banger Records, stated that Uffie's album had just been completed and was due out in spring 2010. Feadz, J-Mat, Mr. Oizo, Mirwais and SebastiAn served as producers on the album, while both Pharrell Williams and Mattie Safer from The Rapture made guest appearances.〔 Before the release of the album there was a contract-conflict between Uffie and Lou Reed as to who would be credited as the writer of the title track, "Sex Dreams and Denim Jeans", which once again delayed the album from "early 2010" to June 15, 2010. The song uses an instrumental sample of The Velvet Underground track "Rock & Roll" and the only way Reed would allow her to use the sample was by calling "Sex Dreams and Denim Jeans" an "adaptation" of "Rock & Roll" and receiving the sole credit as the writer of the song as well. This dispute delayed the album by about six months; Uffie branded Reed "fucking difficult", and when asked if he had heard the song, she stated, "Yes he has, he had to clear it. And it was a very not nice experience dealing with him, I have to say. () I don't know what this guy's problem is but on the credits I think it even says something like he wrote it. He gets everything. In a later interview with BBC Radio 1, Uffie stated that the album was heavily acid-influenced and that Mirwais produced five tracks, while Feadz, Mr. Oizo and SebastiAn produced a couple of tracks each. She also went on to refer to the album as "the end of my crazy youth and the intro to my adult life." "Pop the Glock", "First Love" and "Brand New Car" were all previously released as singles at least three years prior to the album's release. 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「Sex Dreams and Denim Jeans」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
