Charli XCX recorded an album in a day with A.G. Cook
Over the weekend Charli XCX recorded a new album with PC Music's A.G. Cook but it's unlikely to ever see the light of day.

The impromptu link up seems to have been pretty fruitful, spawning an album's worth of tracks. "Party Party" certainly sounds fun.
@Popjustice this was yesterday. 9 songs. 20 steps/party party/in my arms/happy now/dreams/7 days/everything/I don't wanna know/I got it.

Speaking to The FADER in a new interview, XCX revealed that her long-awaited Sucker follow up probably won't be out for another year - and she's not committing to a firm date. Despite another setback, she revealed that another mixtape could see the light of day before then... could that be this new thingy with A.G. Cook, perchance? Yeah she's said it "will probably never come out", but if she needs a release and this one's done then... maybe?
XCX has been collaborating lots lately, joining forces with Mura Masa, Whethan, Kyary Pamyu Pamyu and producer Yasutaka Nakata, and Blondie in recent months, plus recruiting heaps of names for her Number 1 Angel mixtape.
