Upfront Reviews: 11.12.06: Albums.
Blackstrobe
A Remix Selection (Playlouderrecordings PLAYR17CD)
Combining techno, house and electro, all with a distinct gothic leaning, Blackstrobe are almost too fashionably 2006 for words. While their own work is fairly formidable, to date they are probably best known for their remixes, of which this compilation rounds up the best. Veering from the sublime - The Rapture, Depeche Mode - to the ridiculous - Rammstein - this collection is an excellent introduction to a considerable talent.
Katie Price & Peter Andre
A Whole New World (K&P KANDPCD1)
If those pictures of Jordan and Andre arriving for their wedding in a pumpkin coach left some feeling slightly queasy, it's probably best to look away now. The outback's most unlikely celebrity couple deliver a string of well-known duets including Endless Love and Don't Go Breaking My Heart here. One thing Jordan is very good at is marketing herself as a brand, and as such this is a pretty savvy brand extension. Proceeds for the album will be donated to charity.
