David Guetta Announces Track Listing for Sixth Studio Album 'Listen' (Atlantic/Parlophone)

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Oct 28, 2014) - Listen, David Guetta's incredible sixth studio album, set for worldwide release on November 24^th -- arriving on Atlantic/Parlophone and available now for pre-order (Google Play & iTunes) -- unites three years of production work with David's desire to produce records that strike a chord with his huge army of fans and equally, opens the hearts, ears and minds of others. His most sophisticated and unexpected work, Listen is an evolution, with a range of surprises, from mid-tempo new single 'Dangerous,' to a ballad with Sia. Changing his production style from creating beats and laying vocals to working in a more traditional sense, this song-based album was crafted from simple guitar/voice or piano/voice, then produced. Listen is about taking risks, and the results are spectacular.

"I could have chosen to repeat the style that has become so successful for me, but I wanted to grow as a producer and push myself to the limit. Try new ideas. Get out of my comfort zone. Create songs that stand up whether played by a DJ, a rock band or an orchestra. I worked with piano, violins, guitars and blended them with electronic elements. It's also my most personal album lyrically, which is why I called it Listen. Dance too, but really it's from the heart."

Having already scored his first international chart hit from the album with 'Lovers On The Sun,' a track that hit #1 in the UK, France and for a record-breaking 7 weeks in Germany, completing his club-beat EP and the bridge from what came before, Listen feels ready to build on the successes of David's 2011 album 'Nothing But The Beat,' which sold over 4 million copies globally, and GRAMMY-nominated 2009 album 'One Love.'

Enlisting special guest collaborators including UK songstress Emeli Sandé, who lends her vocals to the powerful 'What I Did For Love,' Irish three-piece The Script, limitless singer-songwriter John Legend and US rap star Nicki Minaj on 'Hey Mama,' there are a broad range of styles and influences that help make Listen such an exciting record. In a brilliant close to the album, David also teams up with enchanting vocalist Sia on the heartfelt and beautiful 'The Whisperer.' Then, literally, at the 11^th hour, his Titanium partner delivered the jaw-dropping "Bang My Head," completing his finest body of work.
