Production, released on Naïve on April 20, 2000, was the second album from Mirwais, the French producer and former member of the '80s group Taxi Girl, and it shared a year with Madonna's Music, the album the two of them had started making together in 1999. Here he's working for himself, turning out sleek, clipped electronic dance music, all stuttering disco and filtered cool.
The videos did plenty of the talking. Stéphane Sednaoui directed the clip for "Disco Science" in 1999 and came back for the third single, "I Can't Wait", while Jean-Baptiste Mondino shot "Naïve Song" in 2000. "Disco Science" later soundtracked the hare-coursing scene in the film Snatch. Simon Davey mastered the album at The Exchange in London, with Nilesh Patel handling "Disco Science". In 2008 Naïve reissued it alongside Mirwais Remixed, with reworkings by Giorgio Moroder, Joey Negro, Dave Clarke and Les Rythmes Digitales among others.
