Kylie Minogue has teamed up with producer Fernando Garibay before. The pair released an EP in 2014 titled Sleepwalker that had some enchanting songs. Today the duo has surprised fans with a new EP simply called Kylie + Garibay and dropped a video for the single Black and White featuring Shaggy. Yes, THAT Shaggy. The song is a lovely, languid dance track that keeps the Shaggy to a minimum, so don't worry. Ha. The full EP (available now on iTunes) is three songs and includes a duet with Sam Sparro and a track featuring Giorgio Moroder. The black and white (appropriate) video was shot by Kylie's friend Katerina Jebb and Kylie has this to say about it:
"There are certain things you will only do with or for your friends. When Katerina Jebb said she wanted to make a film of me like an old fashioned home movie in a tassel bikini, I knew we would produce something which speaks volumes of our friendship. As best friends for over twenty five years, we have seen a lots of ups and downs. This, however, was a moment to celebrate life and freedom and just let go. No pressure, just love. I admire her not only as an amazing individual, but her art and aesthetic is singular and beautiful."
Kylie quietly released new music earlier this year that she worked on with producer/songwriter Fernando Garibay (Lady Gaga, Shakira) that would be used somehow on her Kiss Me Once Tour. Well here is the short film featuring that music that opens the tour and it's beautiful. Kylie called on her favorite designers from Dolce & Gabbana, Christian Louboutin to Jean Paul Gaultier Couture to transform her into different characters for the three songs in the video including Snow White and Ms. Havisham.
