Kyle Minogue - Boombox
Kylie’s always been a disco queen. Many of the Aussie pop star’s early hits, dating back to “The Loco-Motion,” were remixed for the dancefloor. This album gives the celebrity remix treatment to tracks released since 2000. Fischerspooner turns Kylie’s “Come Into My World” into a throbbing club classic, while electro godfathers the Chemical Brothers deliver a stark, hypnotic version of “Slow.” But best is the mashup of New Order’s “Blue Monday” with “Can’t Get You Out of My Head,” an irresistible booty-shaker.
