But just a small spoiler: it’s fantastic vibes with power, authenticity, classic Chic vocals, and Nile Rodgers that performs brilliantly.
I won’t say much, you can hear for yourself. It all started with the shock that followed when Nile Rodgers announced that he had cancer in 2010 he decided that from there on he had to make as much music as ever before, and with all the people that he love. Now, in 2015, Chic is back with a new track. You can listen to some of the classics in the bottom. Through the 70s and 80s (and briefly the beginning of the 90s) they released absolutely delicious Disco/Funk music and toured the world. ‘I don’t want to live in the past but it’s a nice place to visit,Īs many of you might know, Chic is an American band that was organized in the 70s (1976 to be precise) by guitarist Nile Rodgers and bassist Bernard Edwards.

Like the title of CHIC’s forthcoming album declares, IT’S ABOUT TIME … CHIC’s time!! It’s like a rebirth: Luther Vandross, Robin Clark,Tony Thompson, Bernard Edwards, Alfa Anderson and Luci Martin … they’re all there too! True to the CHIC tradition, the label states: “written and produced by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers for the CHIC Organization”… because it is! It’s like Nile found a time capsule and discovered a brand new CHIC record that never came out! It is truly magical, incredible, and exciting. Indeed, there’s a special meaning when Nile, Kim, Folami, Russell and Fonzi sing those lyrics – along with the Martinez Brothers percussion over the original CHIC Organization track. “I don’t want to live in the past, but it’s a nice place to visit, and if you come along … I’ll Be There”. “I’ll Be There” has its own DHM (deep hidden meaning). Day will seemingly turn INTO night – an extraordinary event to mark the release of the new CHIC upbeat single! On this date, the vernal equinox, when day and night are of equal length, a total solar eclipse will happen in parts of the Northern Hemisphere. Nile has chosen Mato release “I’ll Be There” – the very first CHIC single in close to 25 years. As any true CHIC fan knows, every CHIC album has always been a concept album … and this record’s “concept” is about “TIME.”
He decides to make more music and play more concerts than ever before … and that means a new CHIC album. It became apparent to Nile that he had only a finite amount of time on this planet. Everything is put on “hold.” He goes from being the happiest guy in the world to a man making life and death decisions. However, Nile realized he couldn’t pick up the phone and tell those who’d passed away that he’d been reunited with this amazing material.Ī few months later, as fate would have it, Nile is diagnosed with extremely aggressive cancer. Nile wasn’t considering making a new CHIC record – in his own words “there wasn’t any reason – either spiritually or artistically to do so.” Listening to those “lost tapes” of CHIC masters that were recorded but never released, Nile heard band members talking, laughing, and working together – it felt like he was going back in time. Inside the box, Nile finds a treasure trove of music from his band CHIC. (US) A box of analog tapes from Warner Music arrives at Nile Rodgers’ house.
