Lady Gaga working with new producer for upcoming album

Lady Gaga is set to head into the studio again for her upcoming solo album. She's going to be working with Giorgio Moroder, an Italian record producer, songwriter, performer, and DJ who is credited with pioneering synth disco and electronic dance music.


According to NME News, he already has "five or six" tracks prepared for her, but he also hopes she'll collaborate with him on his own upcoming album, 74 Is The New 24. Other confirmed artists that will feature on his upcoming album, his first in 30 years, include Charli XCX, Sia, Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue, Mikky Ekko, and Foxes. He's said in the past that he's also wanted to work with Nicki Minaj and Rihanna, so who knows what the final album will end up looking like?

Either way, for a pop album, this guy might not be a bad person to work with. He's credited for many of Donna Summer's biggest hits in the 1970's, he's worked with David Bowie, Blondie, Kylie Minogue, Daft Punk, and many others, and the duet partners on his upcoming album are some of the bigger names in pop at this time.

To me, this is a big, clear sign that Gaga does NOT want another flop to her name.

And synth disco?  Does that mean she wants to return to the sounds of The Fame?


What do you think? Will working with Moroder be a good move for Lady Gaga?
