Daft Punk to work with Chic's Nile Rodgers for new album?

Nile Rodgers has revealed that he may work with Daft Punk on their next studio album.
The Chic frontman praised the French duo and explained that he is due to meet up with them to begin talks about a possible collaboration.
"Those guys are great," he told Culturemap. "They're coming to my apartment on Monday and we're going to talk about making a new record together."
Rodgers announced last year that he had fully recovered from his battle against cancer.
On his recovery, he said: "Let me tell you, the treatment was pretty horrible. But, well, I'm here in Texas ready to play live. I can hardly believe it myself."
Daft Punk's last studio release was the official soundtrack to 2010's Tron: Legacy.
Chic and Nile Rodgers will perform at this year's Camp Bestival alongside Hot Chip and Kool and the Gang.
