In an interview with The Sun, Clean Bandit vocalist Grace Chatto explained that the group recorded the music video with David Guetta in the studio, and then stayed at a friend's house.

“Jack and Luke flew back to London because they had to edit the video, so luckily the footage was safe,” she explained. “But I was supposed to bring back the lenses.”

Grace said that they then went out for dinner, and after returning, someone had “crowbarred the window and taken the lenses and laptops and cash.”

She added that they were all “quite scared sleeping there that night”, but was thankful that the footage was safe because that would have been "irreplaceable”.

The music video was entirely shot, produced, directed, and edited by the trio, and features both David Guetta and Anne-Marie. They hope they can claim back the money lost through insurance.
