A new Donna Summer remix album will be
released later this year. The collection will be titled Love To Love
You Donna and will be released on October 22 through Verve Records.
The set will feature a number of
re-workings from the likes of Giorgio Moroder, Hot Chip, Chromeo & Oliver,
Frankie Knuckles, Eric Kupper and others. Mororder - who co-produced some of
Summer's albums in the 1970s - has reworked "Love To Love You Baby" for the
project. The producer debuted his remix of the classic track during his set at
Way Out West festival in Gothenberg, Sweden last week.
Knuckles and Kupper have worked on a new
version of "Hot Stuff", while Hot Chip have remixed "Sunset People". Chromeo & Oliver have reworked "Love Is
In Control (Finger On the Trigger)" as the set's lead single.
The project came together at Verve because
of the long friendship between David Foster (Verve Music Group's Chairman) and
Summer's family, says Mike Rittberg, Verve/Universal Music Group's VP of artist
development/promotion. The set was initially conceived as a "tribute"
album, but soon turned into a full-on remix project. Artwork and full tracklist for the album will be announced soon.
Love to Love You Donna is not -- at this point -- part of a longer-term, multi-album deal with Summer's estate and Verve Records. Below is the artwork and tracklist:
