It looks like Duran Duran are in for some good times…
Bona fide ‘Hitmaker’ Nile Rodgers and 80s-tastic band Duran Duran will pair up once more as the British group hit the studio to record their 14th studio album.
Having produced tracks such as Madonna’s ‘Like a Virgin’ and Daft Punk’s ‘Get Lucky’, Rodgers is poised to join Monster producer Mark Ronson to produce the as yet untitled album for the pop legends.
It was so awesome to be in a real studio recording with a real band! @duranduran @iamMarkRonson @nilerodgers pic.twitter.com/UfZ2xAuw4B

Rodgers has worked with Le Bon and the boys before, producing the singles ‘Reflex’ and ‘The Wild Boys’, as well as producing the band’s album ‘Notorious.’
Ronson has also worked with DD (yes, that’s what we call them) on their most recent album ‘All You Need Is Now’ and the new album is expected out in early 2015.
This news is most certainly cause for celebration. Any excuse to listen to Rio…
