Avicii enlists Adam Lambert and Nile Rodgers for new song

Avicii has revealed that a song featuring Adam Lambert and Nile Rodgers will be included on his new album.

The Swedish DJ and producer is due to release his debut record '#True' in September and it seems he has tapped up a host of big names to feature on its tracks.

Speaking to Digital Spy, the 'Wake Me Up' star said that Lambert and Chic guitarist Rodgers - who teamed up on the former's 2012 album 'Trespassing' - have come together again on one of his new songs. He said:

"I did one track with Nile Rodgers and Adam Lambert that's kind of very disco."

Avicii continued: "I did another with Imagine Dragons that's almost orchestral and classical. I then have one that's funky, one that's jazzy, one that's rocky and another that's blues orientated. It's kind of all over the place. It's a fusion, but when you listen to the whole album it makes sense. It sounds like it's going to be weird, but the final product is what I got so excited about. Once I started making these tracks I realised that it works. It doesn't sound forced or that I'm trying to be pretentious - it just made total sense."

The Swede meanwhile revealed the news ahead of his performance at burn Yard Live on Friday (July 26), where he debuted new track 'Speed'.
