THE PRINCE FAN ALBUM

A home 4 purple music

We are calling artists from around the world to compose a song for Prince. The goal of this project is to show how much Prince has influenced various generations of musicans, and to connect inspired artists with a wide range of listeners worldwide.

THE PRINCE FAN ALBUM will be the opportunity to finally record your thoughts, your bass, keyboard or guitar phrase with a purple touch and get it out into the world. Hi- or Low-Fi, pure audio or music video, whether one or ten minutes, in English, Spanish, Arabic or instrumental: it’s up to you - simply go purple!

C U, Michel and Nils

"The Real Funkman” hymn to Prince Rogers Nelson by Birbæk / Kruse

ABOUT THE SONG: The song came out pretty spectacular. Nils and I were just in L.A. with Hans Zimmer, who is also a huge Princefan, for the musical setting of my novel adaptation, when suddenly Sheila E. came in with Wendy & Lisa and started singing. No, just crap.
