Madonna Goes Back To Her Roots With Confessions On A Dance Floor

By now you've probably heard of the Abba Gimme, Gimme, Gimme sampling dance club monster hit Hung Up and probably wondering if the rest of the new Madonna album Confessions On A Dance Floor is any good. Well it's definitely good and has a string of very nicely produced tracks by the Les Rhytmes Digitales mastermind, Stuart Price, as well as a couple of other producers on the album. In Fact if you happen to have the Les Rhytmes Digitales Darkdancer album you'll notice some similarities. The similarities of the early 1980's sound that was present on Darkdancer and which is present on Confessions On A Dance Floor. Of course the album gets right into the beats with Hung Up the best single off of the album. Hung Up has an infectious repetitive beat that makes you want to get up and dance. It's catchy and definitely the strongest single off of Confessions On A Dance Floor. The next big track is Sorry which is going to be the next single off of the album. Sorry is almost as good as Hung Up but lacks a little. I assume it's lacking the sample. Also, other good tracks on the album are Jump, Let It Will Be and Forbidden Love. The entire album is a continuous mix so as to have the feel of a DJ mix at a club. It is called Confessions On A Dance Floor after all. Overall this is a great album but not Madonna's best. I assume she's getting tired of recording and finding the next sound. Perhaps she should release a remix album of her past hits. Or maybe release another Immaculate Collection. Confessions On A Dance Floor has it's moments so it's still worth checking out.
