Dua Lipa has announced the release of “Club Future Nostalgia” – an entirely remixed version of her global #1 album “Future Nostalgia,” created in collaboration with The Blessed Madonna. The album is due for release on August 21.
“Club Future Nostalgia” is a stellar collection of brand-new remixes and features from an incredible roll call of superstars, underground heroes and some of the world’s finest dance music talent. The album has been curated and also mixed into a continuous mixtape format by The Blessed Madonna. Marea Stamper aka The Blessed Madonna is a Kentucky-born, Chicago-adopted and now London-based DJ and producer who has become one of the most celebrated names in global club culture.
“Club Future Nostalgia” is an eclectic and euphoric mix of the past and present, it’s a celebration of musical worlds coming together, with 90’s house blending seamlessly with 2020’s finest pop and remixers, a splash of 80’s soul and a few noughties musical gems added to the blend.
The Blessed Madonna has also remixed “Levitating” featuring Missy Elliott and Madonna, which is due for release prior to the album on Thursday August 13th. The album also includes a slam dunk Mark Ronson remix of “Physical” featuring Gwen Stefani. Gwen will be joining Dua on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on August 10th when Dua steps in as guest host of the popular US late night TV show.
“The last few months have been surreal. I’ve watched you all dance in your homes and at your Zoom parties to Future Nostalgia like you were in the club with me. It brought so much joy to my days spent at home, even though I would’ve much rather been playing these songs live for you all on the road,” Dua said. “During this time, I decided to take the party up a notch with the incomparable The Blessed Madonna, who secretly helped me to craft the mixtape that would become Club Future Nostalgia.”
“Taking Future Nostalgia and reimagining it as a mixtape album was an enormous project, which had to be done in absolute secrecy, alone in my attic. In a way building this fantasy out of this beautiful record Dua had already given us was the perfect task for the pandemic. It was a massive and infinitely detailed task,” The Blessed Madonna said.
The album features many of Dua’s musical heroes and heroines, including the truly iconic Missy Elliott, Gwen Stefani and Mark Ronson.
“I was so excited when Dua reached out about teaming up with Mark Ronson and her for the “Physical” remix. Club Future Nostalgia is an epic dance party and I’m thrilled to be a part of it,” Gwen Stefani said.
“Club Future Nostalgia” will be available on all DSPs.
