[[Rivers Cuomo]] recorded several partial sketches of "Disco Queen" throughout [[1998]]. Weezer recorded a demo of "Disco Queen" with producer [[Rich Mouser]] at the Mouse House Studio in Los Angeles in August of 1998 (one of the first studio sessions to feature bassist [[Mikey Welsh]]), the same session that yielded the band's cover of "[[Velouria]]" by the [[Pixies]] for the compilation ''[[Where Is My Mind?: A Tribute to the Pixies]]''. As [[Karl Koch]] noted in the [[Recording_History_-_Page_10#August_1998_:_.22Velouria.22_recording_session.2C_Mouse_House_Studios.2C_Los_Angeles|Weezer Recording History]], however, "apparently the "non-Velourias" didn't come out too good." Several of Cuomo's sketches for the song were released as part of the digital compilation ''[[Alone VI: The Black Room]]'' in [[2020]], though the full-band recording remains unheard.
