BuzzJack Music Forum _ Dua Lipa _ Club Future Nostalgia • Remix Album
Posted by: JosephStyles 5th August 2020, 12:44 AM
whole album remix coming out 21st August + more surprises!!
Physical with Gwen Stefani & Mark Ronson confirmed <3
SCREAMING OMG OMG OMG!!!!!!!!! MADONNA MISSY GWEN MARK AND EVEN MORE
The rumour of the remix album turned out to be true. 
I think Kylie and Moloko seem really possible but I’m SO intrigued as to who else might appear!
Omg yes, this is such a nice gift for my Bday week 
AHHHHH. This is such exciting news, cannot wait to see the other artists who will appear. Physical ft. Gwen already sounds like a match made in heaven. Apparently the Jamiroquai logo is on the car in that picture as well, so should be other hunt.
I can't at Madonna posting this picture before Dua herself could actually do it.
The Blessed Madonna confirmed that she has pretty much handled most of the production of the remix album and "Levitating" is the first taste of a much bigger concept.
Wow! Was not expecting this at all. Super hyped for this and I hope there are are more collaborators to be announced!
oh wow
was expecting a deluxe edition rather than a remixed album
My dreams of a Dua remix album have been answered sounds like perfection
GWEN! 
Excited to see who else appears on it, that’s definitely Jamiroquai’s logo on the car.
Upon further inspection there appears to be another person on the left of the picture but I can't tell who it is. Im guessing there is a complete image will all the featured artists on.
Also intrigued what she means by 'all future nostalgia tracks and then sum' are being remixed. What else is there be remixed?
This is so exciting, just like true entire era has been! Can’t wait to see what else comes from it
Has anyone got a clue on how this will chart? Will it be combined to FN, have its own placement on the album chart or maybe be on compilation I’m not quite sure?
was wondering the same, sure it will count towards the album charts cos Dua is the main artist in all track, sure it's not a compilation
I think it will count as a separate new album, but not 100% sure
depends on how they release it, if it's out on its own or as 2nd disc added to FN
Ooooh, now THIS is exciting!
Wow this is gonna be amazing, can't wait *.*
I assume it will chart as its own thing? It should be able to get to #2, as The Killers will almost certainly be #1.
The fact that Jamiroquai could be involved in this. *_*
I will DIE if Blondie is on this too
Lily Allen has *got* to be on Good In Bed!
I hope this isn't true but some are saying that Bleona is on there too 
If you never heard about Bleona, then let me shed some light...she is a delusional albanian star who proclaimed herself as albanian Madonna. She even said that her concert had attendees of 50k(?) in Tirana, which the truth of that concert is that it was organized for 100 years of Albania Independence and there were a lot of other people who performed, and it was free .
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bleona
Apparently she had a UK #7 chart hit according to her wiki
I hope this is not true and I just can't see Dua really bringing her to this album along Madonna, Gwen, Missy etc. etc.
THE Bleona Lewis? *.*
This is quite exciting! I can't think of anything similar where a whole album (albums tracks included) are getting remixed, some very exciting names already included and plenty of hype about other potential collaborators. the hype is real!
Rumored tracklist:
1. Future Nostalgia (feat. Jamiroquai)
2. Don’t Start Now (Y2K Murder Remix)
3. Cool (feat. Charlie Puth)
4. Physical (Mark Ronson Remix) [feat. Gwen Stefani]
5. Levitating (The Blessed Madonna Remix) [feat. Madonna & Missy Elliott]
6. Pretty Please (Clean Bandit Remix) [feat. Jorja Smith]
7. Hallucinate (Röyksopp Remix) [feat. Kylie Minogue]
8. Love Again (feat. Ed Sheeran)
9. Break My Heart (Oh No!) [feat. Zara Larsson]
10. Boys Will Be Boys (feat. Charli XCX, MØ & Zara Larsson)
11. Never Ending
12. Love Me Better
13. Disco Goes On
14. If It Ain’t Me (feat. Normani)
If that is true then I am surprised Tove Lo is not part of it!!!
Idk if that’ll be true, I think the team would’ve hyped up Ed by now if he was on it
I assumed most of the songs will just be getting remixed and a couple will have features but obviously i don’t know
ZARA TWICE!
But looking forward to Jorja Smiths feature is that is true!
PLEASE can we get if it ain't me yasssss. It's my third fave from the project after Physical & DSN 
Kylie on Hallucinate would be a MOMENT omg *.*
and Charlie Puth on Cool... hopefully he doesn't ruin its status as the best song x
this feels early in the campaign, how is this lasting until 2022 if you’re releasing a megastar remix album 5 months after the album came out
i just wanted hallucinate to have its chance 
the shade to Good in Bed too, we stan
I'd happily take that tracklist - but I can't see it being real or not having a Good In Bed remix
I am so hyped for this.
hope that tracklist is fake, Ed Sheeran, Charlie Puth, that's like the features from hell 
Yeah looks very fake to me. It's too good.
That track list would be epic. But it’s gotta be fake surely.
Just hope Ed Sheeran is not part of this.
The Moloko rumour would be amazing but didn't Roisin recently said Moloko weren't ever going to reunite? So would be a bit of a random move to pop up on a Dua remix all of a sudden.
If Ed is on it his track will almost definitely take away the focus of Levitating with Madonna and Missy.
Featuring Jamiroquai? So fake
the Jamiroquai logo is on the original picture Dua posted!
The idea of Charlie Puth on 'Cool' does make me feel somewhat nauseous.
Dua's team are too smart to add Ed, Charlie Puth or Zara x 2 that would be the opposite of an incentive to buy an album
As much as he may not be for some on here, Ed is absolutely an incentive for a lot of people
on a disco dance album? not sure
The only market Ed hasn’t won over is the LGBT one this could be his chance to crack that market
Fake AF.
Hope Kylie is still on there though!
I'm also intrigued as to what makes Y2K's remix a "murder remix"
the Jamiroquai logo is on the original picture Dua posted!could the white horse be Goldfrapp?
Promo.
Described as a stellar collection of brand new remixes and features from an incredible roll call of superstars, underground heroes and some of the world's finest dance music talent and has been curated and also mixed into a continuous mixtape format by The Blessed Madonna. The result is an eclectic and euphoric mix of the past and present, it's a celebration of musical worlds coming together, with 90's house blending seamlessly with 2020's finest pop and remixers, a splash of 80's soul and a few noughties musical gems added to the blend.
wish they reveal the tracklist and up a pre-order soon
I think that will come along with the Madonna remix next week
WOW! I'm really looking forward to this, it could be absolutely amazing! *.*
Another day, another fake tracklist. I think I've seen three so far. 
Anyway, re-reading the press release, I don't think all the songs are going to have features and I assume that there's a possibility that there could be samples in a couple of tracks instead. Also, some of the artists who are hinted through that promotional picture might appear because of the aforementioned and not necessarily because they recorded something. However, if someone told me that Dua Lipa was going to work with Gwen Stefani, Madonna and Missy Elliot in a remix album of her sophomore album some time ago, I would have laughed on them, so anything could happen at this point to be honest.
Dua revealed that the remix album has been pushed back a week because there are going to be animations for every song on the record during her interview to Gwen Stefani on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
So this is competing against Katy’s debut week?!
She could actually realistically get herself a #1 debut with this in the UK!
Apart from JLO in the early 2000s... do remix albums even do much? Even Gaga when everyone was Gaga-mad didn't manage a super high peak with her Remix album...
I’m thinking it’s being treated as it’s own seperate album so it’ll chart separately.
I guess this won’t be confirmed until it’s actually out though.
I love this idea but I feel it’s coming a bit too soon, no? Hallucinate needs a few more weeks to peak realistically and surely releasing this closer to Christmas and away from other big releases is a good idea. Or even having a remix single out October/November then the remix album out early next year
the possibility of Jamiroquai, Kylie, Roisin!!! f***!!
Tracklist is out!
Love is religion YASSSSS. The leak is fabulous and is better than most of the original album for me so I really hope the blessed Madonna hasn’t screwed it up ahh
Gutted no if it ain’t me 😭
Crikey, Art of Noise!!
Neneh Cherry!!

"Break My Heart" / "Cosmic Girl". This is the medley/remix I didn't know I needed.
not Kiss & Make Up
Love Is Religion & Physical are def the two I'm most hyped for, I'm so worried they've screwed the former up ahaha
Not what I was expecting at all, but I'll give it a listen. Sad there's no Normani.
So there's actually 3 features most are samples hmm, let's see what it's like
This wasn't meant to be a collaborative project since the very beginning and I think many people jumped on that idea because of the inclusion of Madonna and Missy Elliot on "Levitating" and Gwen Stefani and Mark Ronson on "Physical", so I'm intrigued how everything will work out, including the samples.
I actually quite like that she's drafted in some top notch names in house music rather than filling it with big name popstar features, it makes it look more like a musical concept than a cash-in.
My heart isn’t ready for a Jayda G Remix of Cool
No Normani...
I'm a bit gutted that If It Ain't Me isn't on there. Didn't Dua say that it would be coming at some point? I wonder if there is a plan to released a deluxe edition towards Christmas?
the samples look very interesting indeed, Neneh Cherry-Buffalo Stance especially
I don't think the Normani collab (in its standard non-remixed form) would fit onto Club FN. I think there's a time and a place for that song to come and it isn't now. 
If this whole era is supposed to last two years then I can see a deluxe edition coming next year with more tracks. Maybe even the LIR non-remixed version will feature on it...
I'm a bit disappointed by this project so far. It is just a remix album; I was expecting more.
I’m not surprised Normani isn’t on this album it would sound really out of place. It’d probably work better as a stand alone release if it does get an official release.
I am intrigued at this though. The remix of Levitating was underwhelming on first listen but now does sound better so I do think this could be one of the better remix albums to be released.
but something I don't get, there is no pre-order yet? how come? is there gonna be a physical?
Yeah, unless you want a bad remix of it, be glad If It Ain't Me isn't on this. We'll get it soon enough.
I think the CD could come out a few weeks after the streaming / download release.
She’s the type of artist with quite a dedicated fanbase so a physical would sell enough. Then again she also dominates on streams too so that could be the labels priority but I do think it’ll have one at some point.
Although the album is a continuous mix, the remixes are going to be released separately too.
the best would be to have it out as vinyl too
Why is Kiss & Make Up featured on the album? Is it the original version? 
• Mixed version: 28/8
• Unmixed version: 4/9
I don't know why both of them couldn't be released at the same time, but I assume it's because the continuous mix will give a proper vision of the remix album, so it's better to listen to it without any skips. As a side note, TikTok is teasing something and, apparently, the visuals of the mixed version will be premiered there (like The Weeknd did a concert in this platform early this month).
Available to pre-save on Spotify and Deezer and pre-add on Apple Music.
Kiss & Make-Up being tacked on the end seems like a desperate move for streams because BP are monsters for streaming but.. so is Dua so it doesn't make much sense. Unless she and her team feel that the song was not given proper attention due to it being released on the complete edition.
Kinda bummed that If It Ain't Me isn't included on the album but relieved because I don't want it to get a remix.
Definitely not feeling a few of these tracks.
Physical is too slow for the tempo Dua is singing at, Gwen fits in perfectly and really works well but Dua's first chorus isn't adjusted to fit the slightly slower tempo of the song. Kiss & Make-Up also loses all of its spark and Blackpink are sort of lost in a monotonous production. I'll give it all a proper listen after work but 3/3 of the songs I've heard so far have been so underwhelming and muddy.
Just listened to the Physical remix. Maybe my expectations were lowered slightly by the Levitating remix, but I really like it!
The Love Is Religion remix isn't too bad tf. The original is obviously FAR superior but this is good enough ftm, just hoping we'll get the original with side-B whenever that's released!
I'm really liking what I've heard of it so far! The Levitating remix definitely seems like a weak link
what on earth is this album, some mixes are awful
I'm actually screaming at the Pretty Please one, controversial queen working with Rolf Harris on wobbleboard xx
Really enjoying the first 2- the first in particular!
Not really sure what the point is of them releasing the non-mixed version of this a week later than this version :') think I will wait for that to come out before checking out any other remixes here, I wasn't planning to listen to the whole thing anyway. x
Major disappointment :/ beyond bad mixes
I'm listening now. It makes much more sense as a cohesive album (listening from beginning to end). It sounds like one long DJ set. I don't think I'll go back to it often, but I finally realise what they're trying to do.
I was disappointed by 'Levitating' in isolation but as a whole album the vision is clear and I'm really into it *.* I hope a vinyl gets released at some point!
- ok but why doesn't the Break My Heart / Cosmic Girl mix slap? It literally builds up and then they fade out the chorus?? GAH
I echo the sentiment here, not sure if I'm going back to this album much~
I listened all the way through. There are maybe three songs I will revisit, but for the most part, I will be sticking to the amazing originals.
Agreed- I did like it but I can’t imagine myself revisiting many of them
I'm sorry but this is such a slam dunk. She could have easily thrown together some designed-for-Spotify remix album with expected chart-friendly DJ's and artists (basic) — but she didn't, and instead dipped even further into the entire premise of Future Nostalgia. I don't think a lot of people realise just how perfectly they have captured the vibe of an early noughties late-night radio show, or a club compilation remix album from that era. The bootleg mashups, the callouts, the choice of collaborators. Ingenious. 'That Kind of Woman' sounding like a lost Kylie/Xenomania track from 2004? Yes.
Remember, this is in addition to an already great album that she is clearly not abandoning.
Given the names involved and how this was marketed, I'm very underwhelmed.
I feel like they imagined The Blessed Madonna would be a bigger draw.
Maybe I wasn't expecting as much as everyone else but I really quite like this. It's a remix album that I'd actually choose to listen to, it's a journey and an entire project instead of just being a load of disparate mixes chucked together for no artistic reason.
I can't really comment on the individual mixes because that misses the point, I'd only ever choose to listen to this as a whole in the same way as I'd listen to the Soulwax 2 Many DJs albums from the late 90s/early 2000s. It's essentially a concept album and I think she's smashed it. I'm majorly impressed that she's even attempted to produce something like this, it adds further to my view that she is a real artist and I think this is a really impressive body of work in an area that she's never really delved into before.
It's not really even comparable to the original album as the ambitions for both are very different - but it's amazing that she's managed to pull off two really cohesive projects this year, even if they are both obviously linked.
Tbf the best thing on it is the levitating remix
My favourites are the Joe Goddard and Yaeji remixes right now! Although like Dandy I'd rather just listen to the project in its entirety.
This is absolutely brilliant! If anything I probably prefer it to the original album
This is truly a DJ compilation for the dance stans and I love it. It’s definitely one that needs to be played as a mix rather than individual tracks
I wasn't expecting to like this much because the Levitating remix was a bit disappointing but it's great! Really love the club atmosphere and all the stuff that goes on between tracks. My favourites were the Joe Goddard and Zach Witness remixes, I'm a big Yaeji fan but that one didn't quite click for me yet. The only thing that really didn't work for me was Break My Heart mixed with Cosmic Girl, the title track would've been a far better match for Jamiroquai.
When the middle bit kicked in of Cool I was hooked! Don’t Start Now May have to take a few listens but I like what Yaeji has done. Echoing a few others’ comments about Love Is Religion being fab too.
The only damp-ish squib for me is Good in Bed
Can confirm that this is 10/10 workout music
‘Love Is Religion’ now also emerging as a favourite
I’ve just skipped to ‘Love Is Religion’ because I heard a snippet of it and it is GORGEOUS, exactly the sound I’d imagined when she announced this club project
I’ve listened to about half the tracks but I can already tell this is way more enjoyable as a full piece (Levitating remix still meh though) so at least I can appreciate this project even if I won’t necessarily return to most of the song individually.
@ people who are complaining about this not being a pop album- just don’t listen to it?
The ‘Physical’ remix is fantastic.
This is bangin'. I need to hear it in a dancy environment with compromised sobriety.
I love the 'Love Again' remix, and also the Break My Heart/Cosmic Girl one is interesting (with some of the uses of vocals from both tracks).
This isn’t terrible but it isn’t really for me I don’t think. It’s pretty much just I prefer the original versions of most tracks. Love Is Religions mix was probably the stand out for me but I think that could be because I’m less familiar with that than anything else on this so it just sounded the best. It did flow well but yeah tbh even remix albums like Gagas I very rarely go back too so I wasn’t expecting to be wowed or anything. It’s a good effort for her to do something different though.
There's a few tracks on here that I like, I absolutely love the "Love is Religion" and "Physical" remixes. I quite like the Levitating one as well but it's not as good.
Parts of it just sound really messy to me though. The "Good in Bed" remix in particular. 
I wouldn't say this is for me really, but people definitely need to learn the difference between it being bad and it not being what they wanted. It's mixed excellently, flows so well and I think it would be great in a club all night if I was drunk. It works better as a whole more than when I listened to tracks on their own earlier, but I don't think it's the sort of thing I'd regularly go back to for the whole thing if that makes sense?
I do love the Love Again remix, Love Is Religion is great too as is Physical with Gwen Stefani. I love that it keeps the 80s sound but in a totally different way to the original!
Listening from beginning to the end is like a requirement if you want to enjoy this as a whole project!!!
Personally I really did enjoyed it on a first listen and I thought it flowed and ended pretty fast...I guess I expected it was going to be one of those long remix albums but I am glad it's shorter and easy to digest!!!
The first few songs I listened to on shuffle and that was a mistake!
Not every mix is as good as the other and I think some mixes should definitely be longer (the Paul Woolford Remix [Extended??????]) of 'Hallucinate' is so divine but way too short, and other mixes could've been left off, but it's definitely a decent remix album with room to grow.
I look forward to today's midweek information to see where the album is placing.
It’s nowhere to be seen!
It must be charting as a compilation I don’t think they’d combine it with the original as this is under Dua Lipa & The Blessed Madonna on iTunes and on streaming sites.
Could it be they are combining it with the original.
Could it be that it hasn't sold enough copies?
Yeah, it's a very likely story...
Dua Lipa has enough fans to take any album until the Top 100 , an explanation will come.
the album was #10 on Itunes on Friday and it's still top 40
there are many albums that have charted this year without physicals, only with iTunes and little streaming (Laura Marling, Fiona Apple)
so if it's not charting, must be a technicality, not that she's a flop
The un-mixed version got pushed to next friday!
Her team will focus on "Love Is Religion" with the playlisting this time.
^it's up for pre-order now on iTunes and the release date it says it's Sep 11
the tracklist is different and I think there are new mixes and some others are missing (Blackpink, the one with Jamiroquai)
The only new remix in the album is "Don't Start Now" by KAYTRANADA. It seems that there were some licensing issues with the mash-up of "Break My Heart" and "Cosmic Girl".
I am so confused...so what exactly we're getting on Sep.11?!!
Yeah, it's combined. Weird that this happened in favour of Club Future Nostalgia instead of Future Nostalgia.
I wish somebody somewhere could clarify exactly what's going on with the situation in terms of the UK, I was hoping Music Week might have touched upon it in their report.
I think the label didn't registered it (on purpose) with the OCC or asked the OCC for it to be excluded
otherwise it would have charted on the basis of the iTunes sales alone (was #10 at the start of the week on iTunes), at least on the download chart
but I think this new version will chart now as it's credited to Dua Lipa alone, it's up for pre-order etc
Having to wait another week then... 
but at least we do actually have a confirmation that it is coming out (and a new remix being included somewhat makes up for the delay I guess? interested to hear this KAYTRANADA remix).
I did end up listening to the mixed version and annoyingly one of the best sounding remixes (the Midland remix of 'Pretty Please') was edited to be barely 90 seconds long so definitely need the full version of that. 'Love Is Religion' was my other highlight and the remix of 'Levitating' has grown on me quite a bit (I still don't really care much for the Missy Elliott verse though). Also liked the Joe Goddard, Jayda G (a version of 'Cool' I can almost get behind yay), Dimitri From Paris and Yaeji contributions ~
I’m really liking the Moodyman mix of Break my Heart
Is this coming out on CD (either mixed or unmixed, or both)?
I thought it was a great album/project! I'm yet to listen to the unmixed version but I will do this week, weird it's not on Spotify as a complete album, but instead as 17 separate singles.
where can I pre-order physical version of CFN?
It's been said that the remix album will be released alongside the original album in a double CD, but there's not a release date yet. The remix album will be the mixed version and not the unmixed version if it's considered the back cover, which you could see https://i.imgur.com/Va23sbW.png. It's too big to be embed though. However, I also hope there are plans that the unmixed version will be physically too.
Anyway, I still find odd that the unmixed version of the album was uploaded as standalone releases on Spotify, Deezer and Tidal, while it was available in an album (with a different order in the tracklisting) on Apple Music and Amazon Music. Either way, because of the aforementioned, I put all of them in a playlist on Spotify. It's based off the mixed version, including the KAYTRANADA remix of "Don't Start Now" after the Yaeji remix of the same song.
Is there unmixed version of That Kind Of Woman available somewhere? I'd love to hear it in original version
Am I the only one who LOVES the remix version of Boys Will Be Boys? How they managed to turn one of the weakest FN tracks into one of the standouts of CFN is very impressive!
Ok but why didn't we get the full version of Dimitri From Paris' remix of Break My Heart/Cosmic Girl?
I'm intrigued to find out what the original version of Love Is Religion sounds like. Its remix is the best thing to come out of the Club Future Nostalgia project. 
"Love Is Religion" is featured on FIFA 21.
To be released on vinyl soon.
Available for Pre-Order: https://musicstore.dualipa.com/uk/club-future-nostalgia.html
Got mine in!
The vinyl is more like a box set of the era tbh! Totally out of my budget at the moment. If I can't get a Studio2054 ticket then I might reconsider though!
Can't wait to own this! Mine was shipped today
Love Is Religion appeared in Idolator.com's list of "20 Songs That Should Have Been Singles"
Hopefully If It Ain't Me is snubbed from the Moonlight Edition at the last minute and Love Is Religion gets included instead The amount of potential it has is just too much!
Is there any truth in a second one of these coming? I'm sure I read somewhere the other day it was rumoured
Yeh I read it too and they reckon she has Gaga and Ariana on a track. I won't hold my breath.
