Last week on Twitter, the Chic frontman shared a still from a “touching” film made for the forthcoming LP by none other than Daft Punk, whom he helped achieve Grammy success with their 2013 album Random Access Memories. The still (below) shows a faint image of the two iconic robot heads along with the words, “We are sending you this transmission to thank you for all your amazing songs.” According to Rodgers, the full film will be here “within the next few weeks.”

In other album news, Rodgers recently announced on his website that the album will be called It’s About Time… (“because it’s about time,” he reasoned), and the release date for the March maxi-single was chosen to coincide with the vernal equinox, or when day and night are of equal length. At this time, some parts of the world will experience total solar eclipse, which to Rodgers is “symbolic of the rebirth of Chic.”

It will contain two songs. The first, “I’ll Be There,” is dedicated to his late partner and Chic co-founder, Bernard Edwards, and it’s about the “origin of Chic, and how dance music changed our lives forever.” The music video was shot during New York Fashion Week, and it stars model Karlie Kloss, who shot a Vogue editorial with Daft Punk around the time of Random Access Memories’ release.

The second, “Back In The Old School,” features NYC house duo The Martinez Brothers and serves as commentary on dance music and its power to unite. Both tracks, as Rodgers writes, are a “tribute to The Original CHIC Organization – musically, artistically and spiritually…which in my heart allows me to Close The Circle.”
