PRODUCERS

Ricky Wilde has been often mentioned by Sam while working on the track "Nowhere To Begin".
A meeting and recording session with Full Force was planned during last year's trip to the US, but it was eventually cancelled because of hurricane Sandy hitting the States in that very week. A collaboration for at least one song is still in talks.
Steve Strange had enthusiastic words while tweeting his fans on his collaboration with Miss Fox. It is still unknown if the artist will be involved in more tracks.
Ian Masterson is the latest producer to have joined Samantha Fox on her long awaited album. He should be in charge for the new version of "The Secret" and other brand new songs.

Steve Strange also mentioned he could be involved as a style and make-up desinger for the session.
