Mark Ronson and the Business Int’l are releasing their new single, the title track from Ronson’s brilliant (and brilliantly overlooked) 2010 album “Record Collection” on September 5, 2011.   The track will be a new version that features Pharrell Williams, MNDR, Wiley and Wretch 32. “Record Collection 2012″ brings more edge and energy to the original, backed with a string of amazing remixes by CSS, LOGO, Moonlight Matters, Plastic Plates, DATABASE, and Perseus, who, according to Ronson himself, are all certified “f***in’ bangers!” The single will be released on Kitsuné.

On a personal note, I’ve met Mark Ronson many times and he’s one of the coolest guys on the planet.  My heart breaks for him in the wake of Amy Winehouse’s death.  He produced her genius album “Back To Black,” and I hope he is doing ok.  I only had one experience with Amy Winehouse (meeting her and seeing her in concert – which was truly amazing) and I’ve been gutted ever since I heard the tragic news.  I can’t even imagine what Mark is going through.  Thinking positive thoughts for you Mark!
