“Sometimes a song simply demands remixes and you have no choice but to obey – this was certainly the case with ‘Free To Love,’” says Duran Duran’s Nick Rhodes. “We wanted to collaborate with the best possible contemporary remixers, which is something we have not done for a very long time.”
He adds, “It was a leap of faith, and we had absolutely no idea how the interpretations of our song might turn out, but we could not be more thrilled with the results.”
Free To Love: Hot Star Remixes will also be released on vinyl, CD and cassette later this summer, with physical copies including two additional bonus remixes. There will also be a 7-inch release that includes the original single, along with an exclusive instrumental version.
Duran Duran is currently on a European tour that hits the Czech Republic on Wednesday. They are also set to headline BST Hyde Park in London on July 5. A complete list of concert dates can be found at DuranDuran.com.
