New Song: Mutya Keisha Siobhan – ‘Lay Down In Swimming Pools’ (Samples Kendrick Lamar)

Easily one of Brit-Pop’s most anticipated releases this year, Mutya Keisha Siobhan‘s comeback album is still being cooked up in Los Angeles.

The ladies, who served as the original members of the Sugababes, are currently in the studio with Solange producer Dev Hynes, after recently wrapping sessions with the iconic Diane Warren.

And while their new material isn’t quite ready to take out of the oven just yet, it didn’t stop the ladies from sharing a preview of the sound they’re channeling.

Today saw new cut ‘Lay Down In Swimming Pools’ released to the Soundcloud page of Hynes, who wrote:

“Just finished recording new music with Mutya, Keisha and Siobhan and the girls felt like having a bit of fun at the end of the last session – enjoy!!”

Take a listen to the track, which is built around Kendrick Lamar‘s hit ‘Swimming Pools’, after the jump…

Hot Shot: Solange Catches Up With Mutya Keisha Siobhan At Topshop Launch

Check out Solange and British stars Mutya Keisha Siobhan posing it up at the Los Angeles launch of Topshop recently.

Seemingly from different worlds, the eclectic talents now have a common denominator in producer/songwriter Dev Hynes (pictured).

A Brit himself, Hynes helmed much of Solange’s critically acclaimed EP ‘True’ and is presently clocking up studio time with the ladies (who many will remember as the original Sugababes).

We’re almost wetting ourselves at the prospect of MKS serving up something along the lines of ‘Losing You’ or ‘Some Things Never Seem To F**king Work’ when their album arrives in stores later this year.

In other “Origibabes” news, Keisha and co have also clocked in studio time with the legendary Diane Warren during their current American trip.

Exciting times.
