David Guetta is set to release his sixth studio album on November 24th.
His most sophisticated and unexpected work, Listen is an evolution, with a range of surprises, from mid-tempo new single Dangerous, to a ballad with Sia.
“I could have chosen to repeat the style that has become so successful for me, but I wanted to grow as a producer and push myself to the limit. Try new ideas. Get out of my comfort zone. Create songs that stand up whether played by a DJ, a rock band or an orchestra. I worked with piano, violins, guitars and blended them with electronic elements. It’s also my most personal album lyrically, which is why I called it Listen. Dance too, but really it’s from the heart.”
Having already scored his first international chart hit from the album with ‘Lovers On The Sun’, a track that hit #1 in the UK, France and for a record-breaking 7 weeks in Germany, completing his club-beat EP and the bridge from what came before, Listen feels ready to build on the successes of David’s 2011 triple-platinum album ‘Nothing But The Beat’ and Grammy nominated 2009 album ‘One Love’.
Enlisting special guest collaborators including UK songstress’ Emeli Sandé, who lends her vocals to the powerful ‘What I Did For Love’, Irish three-piece The Script, limitless singer-songwriter John Legend and US rap star Nicki Minaj on ‘Hey Mama’, there are a broad range of styles and influences that help make Listen such an exciting record. In a brilliant close to the album, David also teams up with enchanting vocalist Sia on the heartfelt and beautiful ‘The Whisperer’. Then, literally, at the 11th hour, his Titanium partner delivered the jaw-dropping “Bang My Head”, completing his finest body of work.
David Guetta will premiere the highly anticipated video for ‘Dangerous’ on Friday, October 31st at 12pm EST http://www.youtube.com/davidguettavevo.
