The album's tittle track "Turn Down the Sound" and "Bubbles" were written by Nikki with her friend Rod Temperton.[13][14]
Recording
The album was recorded in two straight weeks with no days off at Warner Chappell Studios in New York City.[4] It was recorded in April 2019 under the producers Roger Kleinmen and Zachary Seman who have worked with ASAP Rocky and Joey Badass before. Nikki called the recording a "very special experience" in an instagram post.[15] She also said that the recording didn't feel like work at all, as it was genuinely fun. The first songs recorded were "High Note," and "Throwing Stones."[15] "Throwing Stones" was recorded with musician Remy using a wurlitzer.[16]
Promotion
Yanofsky originally had two promotional shows that she would perform in Montreal and Toronto before the album's release.[17][18] But they have since been moved to the fall because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[19]
