According to Quintard, Sade were the first act to record at Miraval Studios after he and Pitt reopened the recording complex. The studio has undergone major refurbishments including the installation a new hybrid analogue/digital sound desk. “You could feel the love that she and the band had for this place,” Quintard told Billboard.

Sade’s most recent album, Soldier of Love, came out in 2010. The band has performed live in the years since but didn’t release music again until 2018, when they contributed ‘Flower of the Universe’ to the soundtrack for Ava DuVernay’s A Wrinkle In Time and ‘The Big Unknown’ to Steve McQueen’s Widows project.

As for Miraval, the original Miraval recording studio was active from the late 1970s until the early 2000s. During that time, the studio welcomed artists such as Judas Priest, The Cranberries, Wham!, UB40 and Rammstein. Pink Floyd recorded parts of 1979’s The Wall at Miraval, The Cure used it to record their seventh album, Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me, including the hits ‘Why Can’t I Be You?’ and ‘Just Like Heaven’.

Of its reopening, Quintard said, “And when we talked to musicians who came here previously, they all have this special connection with Miraval that can’t really be explained … It’s a dream come true to see this place activate again.”
