Simple Minds Jim Kerr Goes Techno


Simple Minds frontman Jim Kerr may have us all dancing to a different beat when next we hear him. He has recorded a techno song with Italian DJs White Spaces.

Kerr has re-recorded the vocal of his Simple Minds classic 'Don't You Forget About Me' with White Spaces.

The song was recorded with the original intent of being used for a Vodafone commercial in Europe. However, at the last minute, Vodafone changed their plan and dropped the Kerr classic for Dido's 'White Flag'.

Now the single will have a commercial release with mixes and remixes by White Spaces, Perky's Parks, Martin Eyerer, Oliver Laib, Gerret Frerichs, Phunk Investigation, Adam Dived, Stefano Sorrentino, A.T Mendoza, Ged5 and Peter Rauhofer.

A release date for the Australian release of the White Spaces single is yet to be finalized.

This should be interesting. I can imagine "Don't You (Forget About Me)" to a techno beat! :dance:
