Fatboy Slim Working On New Jack Penate Album

Jack Penate is working with producer Fatboy Slim (real name Norman Cook) on his second album, the superstar DJ has confirmed.

"We were doing a tune and I said I wanted to achieve the same atmosphere as 'The Only Living Boy In New York' by Simon and Garfunkel. Jack was like, 'oh that's one of my favourite songs'," Cook told BBC 6 Music. "So, we share the same influences and hence came up with the same music."

Slim also went on to describe how well they are gelling in the studio: "He's a fantastic musician and I've really enjoyed working with him. He calls me dad and very time I text him I call him son. I think He's very proud to have me as a dad and I'm very proud to have him as a son."

The recording sessions will form Penate's second album, the sequel to last year's 'Matinee'.
