Donna Summer’s classic duet I Believe (In You) has been remixed by Figo Sound for a new release.
The track sees the Queen of Disco team up with Joe ‘Bean’ Esposito and was originally recorded for the star’s ‘lost’ ‘I’m a Rainbow’ album.
The album was recorded as Donna’s second release for Geffen Records with producers Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, but was axed weeks before release.
It remained on the shelf until 1996, when an expanded 18-track version materialised, featuring tracks from the original sessions, including cuts like Romeo and Highway Runner which later appeared on movie soundtracks.
Now, a slimmed-down, 10-track version of the album is to be issued, featuring the tunes completely re-imagined by a host of international producers, including the new Figo Sound mix.
Junior Vasquez, Le Flex, Jean Tonique, Ladies On Mars and Oliver Nelson are among those who have also contributed to the release, which is due out October 8.
‘I’m A Rainbow – Recovered & Recoloured’ comes in A5 Mediabook CD and 2LP Clear Vinyl formats and is available to pre-order now.
