On Sunday I went out with Patrick and Peter to Beyond. This day club is located in Vauxhall, a once industrial area that is now home to the MI6 headquarters, and many a gay club and bar that is rivalling in size the traditional village in the West End.
One of the last tracks of the day was the SDP Extended Dub remix of Madonna's new single, Hung Up. It's a great track, with a minimum of vocals on the remix. You have to listen very hard to hear Madonna's voice, as it is drowned out by the heavy sampling of ABBA's Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight).
In the November issue of Attitude, Madonna is quoted as saying, "I'm not in the mood for a ballad. I can't be bothered. I wanna dance!". We all know that's PR code for, "my last album tanked, and I have to do a Kylie-esque return to my pop roots to sell some discs". But not a minute too soon, I reckon. The track is released this Friday.
