Global music superstar Tiesto is teaming up with Bono’s anti AIDS charity (RED) on a new compilation album. ‘Dance (RED), Save Lives’ will be released on 27th November and feature collaborations with Calvin Harris, Avicii and a remake of U2’s Pride.
“When I went to Africa in 2006, I was struck by the devastating effect of AIDS,” said Tiesto in a statement. “Now the world has an incredible chance to make sure that babies are born HIV-free by 2015, and the dance community is going to make a lot of noise to help make this happen.”
The release of the album Dance (RED), Save Lives will be accompanied by a YouTube live stream of sets from Tiesto and other Dance artists from the Stereosonic Festival, in Melbourne, Australia, on World AIDS Day weekend on December 1 and 2.
Over $200 million has been raised by the charity (RED) and its partners which support the fight against AIDS.
