Comments by a Swedish DJ over the weekend have sent shockwaves through the Swiftie community, who have been suffering a drought of Taylor Swift content since the end of her Eras Tour.
Universal Music Group Sweden posted a now-deleted clip of Jacob Criborn, part of the DJ team Nause, talking about the inspiration behind his “Canelloni Macaroni” remix featuring singer Lasse Holm. Seated on a couch, Criborn explained working with Erik Arvinder, a Swedish composer and violinist.
“He did a string arrangement of 25. He got some brass guys playing trumpet, saxophone, trombone,” Criborn said in remarks translated from Swedish through Google Translate. “And they were like, ‘We’re just going to finish Taylor Swift’s record and then we’ll jump on ‘Canelloni.” No, but we really kind of pushed for this song because it deserves it.”
Arvinder has worked with a number of pop stars including Lady Gaga, Harry Styles, Ariana Grande, John Legend, Madonna, Ed Sheeran, Coldplay and The Weeknd. He’s known for his orchestral sound and technique.
Long live the Eras Tour with our enchanting book
Fans have been waiting for a Swift album announcement, whether it’s the Eras Tour singer’s 12th project or a rerecorded version of “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” or “Taylor Swift (Taylor’s Version).”
The Instagram post was quickly taken down by Universal Music Group Sweden, but not before Swifties captured and reposted the reel online. Universal Music Group is Swift’s record label.
The singer’s team and Universal Music Group Sweden did not immediately reply to emails requesting comment.
