Kylie Minogue wants Mark Ronson to make her a disco track

Kylie Minogue wants Mark Ronson to produce a disco record for her.
The Australian pop superstar went down the country route on her latest LP ‘Golden’, however she is known for her huge dance anthems, such as ‘Can’t Get You Out of My Head’, ‘Spinning Around’ and ‘Sexercise’, and the 50-year-old singer would love to return to that same sound she’s synonymous for by working with the ‘Uptown Funk’ hitmaker.
She told the Daily Star newspaper: "I feel a bit of disco coming on next.
"There’s actually a big disco section in this show and we all know about it by the end because it nearly takes us all out.
"It’s full-on, full-tilt, so that’s where I would go at this point."
When asked who she would like to work with on a disco project, she replied: "Mark Ronson I love, of course. He is one of many I’m interested in."
Kylie – who is currently on her ‘Golden UK Tour’ – is already giving fans a flavour for what’s to come, as her long-awaited dance track with DJ Sigala, ‘What You Waiting For’, is released tomorrow (28.09.18).
The pair held onto the song as it didn’t fit the "DNA" of ‘Golden’.
She explained: "That was one of the first things I demoed, but as the DNA of this album took shape it didn’t fit. So I’m thrilled it’s on his album."
Sigala – whose real name is Bruce Fielder – previously admitted it was "weird" working for the ‘Dancing’ hitmaker and even more surreal because they hadn’t even met and she was initially thinking about releasing it as the single for her 14th studio album.
He told BANG Showbiz: "It was a bit of a weird one. It kind of doesn’t feel real because I haven’t met her yet.
"I wrote the songs with a few other people and the guys I wrote it with happened to be working with her already.
"They showed her the song and she went crazy for it, apparently, hopefully, she wants it to be her single."
