Duran Duran<\/b> recently released a brand new single, “Black Moonlight,” featuring longtime friend and collaborator Nile Rodgers<\/b>.<\/p>\n
“Black Moonlight” is a song from the new wave band’s upcoming album Danse Macabre<\/i>, due for release on October 27 on Tape Modern via BMG.<\/p>\n
The second of three brand new songs featured on the album, “Black Moonlight” sees Duran Duran reunite with Rodgers in a timeless display of dance-rock glamour. The song also features Nick Rhodes<\/b> on keyboard and former bandmember Andy Taylor<\/b> on guitar.<\/p>\n
Speaking about “Black Moonlight,” Rhodes said, “Nile Rogers is a force of nature. When we get into a room, we start playing, and magic happens. Nile always says that CHIC is his first band, and Duran Duran is his second. Thematically, I personally prefer the moon to the sun. Simon took the idea and ran with it.”<\/p>\n
Duran Duran lead singer Simon Le Bon<\/b> elaborates, “‘Black Moonlight’ is this classic Duran Duran-Nile Rodgers collaboration. When Nile started playing his guitar in the studio, he really inspired everyone with his riff, and the song just kind of wrote itself.”<\/p>\n
The 13-track Danse Macabre<\/i> features Duran Duran covers of songs by Billie Eilish<\/b>, Talking Heads<\/b>, The Rolling Stones<\/b>, Siouxsie and the Banshees<\/b>, Cerrone<\/b> and The Specials<\/b>.<\/p>\n
