About the track
"Passion" was "Passion" written by Marius Lauber (aka Roosevelt) with a helping hand from Nile on guitar. The song was truly a dream come true for Marius, as he himself puts it: "Nile has been one of my biggest influences all these years, so working with him was the ultimate dream. The collaboration went through a lot of different stages and the song kept changing shape for almost two years. So I'm glad I've finally got a version I'm happy with. Nile is a living legend to me and talking to him about the early days of disco was such a huge inspiration for me."
"Passion" is an ode to Studio 54, a tribute to the energy and ecstasy of disco music in the late '70s. For many, this collaboration brings to mind Nile Rodgers' work with Daft Punk almost 10 years earlier, when Nile put his indelible stamp on "Get Lucky", one of the songs of that year.
