Kevin Barnes of the band Of Montreal spoke to Tom Breihan of Pitchfork about the creation of "Make the Bus," a song from Janelle Monae's "The ArchAndroid," which featured the group.

Pitchfork: The song that you've got on the Janelle Monáe album is really interesting; it's basically an of Montreal song with her singing on it, rather than with you guys playing on her song. It's interesting how it fits into the fabric of that album, and also how it stands out from it. Whose idea was it to put your song on her album?

KB: I guess it just happened organically. I can't really remember a conversation or anything. I think I was just sending them songs. After I met Janelle and [collaborators] Chuck Lightning and Nate Wonder and everybody from the Wondaland Arts Society, it was almost like this romance began. I still feel that excitement. Like, we're in the honeymoon period. It was just super exciting to know each other and to collaborate together, so I can't even really remember how it came about. It just happened organically and now it's there. I haven't really thought about it.

He also revealed that Janelle Monae would be featured on the band's initial "False Priest" tour. "False Priest" is the name of their upcoming album, which will also feature an appearance from Monae.
