Kylie Minogue is keeping us dancing all year long.

The “Padam Padam” superstar just dropped the follow-up to her viral summer hit, “Tension,” the title track off of her forthcoming 16th studio album, due out on September 22.

The track was co-created with Anya Jones, KAMILLE, Jon Green, Richard “Biff” Stannard and Duck Blackwell.

“‘Tension’ came maybe halfway through the album writing process, and I will never ever forget anything about working on Tension, the album, but specifically ‘Tension’ the single. It was in Surrey in the UK, the hottest week of the year there,” she told Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1.

“I was with three of my favorites, Biff, Duck and John Green. And in came two other writers for the day, Kamille and Anya. And they came in with this incredible energy. The guys were kind of like, ‘Oh, fine. We’ll just be over here then.’ Because it was just the three, the two girls and I. They were really pumped to be there, and it was such a great opportunity for all of us. And ‘Tension’ it’s one of those ones that you don’t really even know how it happened. We were just vibing, and all the whooping and stuff, which you guys have done so well, that we’ve kept on the record was literally us just screaming our heads off and going, ‘Did you just say that? Did you just say that?’ ‘Yeah, I said it.’ ‘Okay,’” she continued.

“We literally were. We were jumping on sofas and I mean, you’d have to get their take on as well, but I remember it as that. I mean, we were in this pool house, so it was like the wrong place to record anything. We weren’t really thinking about recording, just writing and getting the vibe down, but a lot of it stayed on the record.”

She also just made a very exciting announcement involving a TV special!
