LCD Soundsystem's "American Dream" was recorded primarily at DFA Records studios in New York City and other locations between 2016 and 2017, marking the band's first album in seven years following their 2010 breakup and subsequent 2016 reunion. The album was produced by LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy alongside collaborators including Pharrell Williams, Jon Hopkins, and Raphael Saadiq, each contributing to different tracks. Murphy employed a combination of analog and digital recording techniques, working with live instrumentation alongside electronic elements, reflecting his meticulous approach to production evident in previous works. The recording process involved extended sessions and multiple revisions, with Murphy known for his perfectionist methods and willingness to rework material extensively. Released in September 2017, the album represented a maturation of the band's sound while maintaining their signature blend of dance, post-punk, and electronic influences.
