In the "Behind the Paisley Park Sessions" video, Beck stated that when he had first heard the name "Paisley Park" as a child he had imagined what it looked like. In early 2019, Beck received an invitation to record in Paisley Park Studios with Beck accepting, marking the first time since 2016 that anyone used Paisley Park Studios.[6] Beck also went on to state that during the recording that he had no real expectations or ideas going in and just went "wherever it took us".[7][5] Beck has also said in an Instagram post that this album was "a nearly impromptu jam recorded on hallowed ground."[8]
The album features remixes of the previously released singles "Where It's At" and "Up All Night". The final song, "The Paisley Experience", is a medley of Prince songs, including "Raspberry Beret", "1999", "When Doves Cry", and "Kiss". The reason he chose to make a medley of Prince songs is because he believed it was impossible to just pick one.[3][4][2][5]
