"Confessions" already lighting up European dancefloors
Madonna is returning to her roots with the club - friendly Confessions on a Dancefloor, due November 15th. For her tenth studio album, the follow - up to 2003's American Life, the pop legend worked closely with British producer Stuart Price (a.k.a. DJ Jacques Lu Cont) at his London apartment.
Price met Madonna later in her career, playing keyboards on her last two tours - - "I was a bit too young to be a fan in the Eighties," he says, laughing. She approached him after last year's Re - Invention Tour, when she began work on a music - driven screenplay, bringing him onboard to create a sound she called "future disco." The idea for Confessions came from those sessions.
"We live real near each other in London, and we could just send ideas back and forth and get together and work on stuff," Price says. "The creative process was very short. There were a couple of weeks in London at my studio where we were doing a song every day."
At night, the producer would test out the tracks during his club gigs.
"Whenever I was DJ'ing, I'd take dub or instrumental versions out with me," Price says. "I had my camera with me, and the next day I'd tell Madonna, 'This is what a thousand people in Liverpool looked like last night dancing to our song.' You can work on a song for twelve hours, but I guarantee you'll know within the first ten seconds of putting it on at a club whether it works or not. So these songs were tested on unwitting subjects throughout Europe."
But Price insists that he and Madonna did not blindly trust the club scene, wanting to create something more lasting. "There's a bit of a danger with dance music that you can create something that's cool but doesn't have much substance to it," he admits. "Every few months, a club record comes along that hits a nerve with people, and they connect to it. They don't know why, but there is something magical in it. That's what we were trying to make."
The first single is the uptempo synth - disco jam "Hung Up," which Price calls "a big feel - good song. You put it on and you want to get in your car, turn it up and drive around smiling."

WHO ARE the happiest music executives in the land these days? The big guys at Warner Records. All who have heard Madonna's coming CD, "Confessions on a Dance Floor," have been blown away. (Including WR's movie - star handsome CEO Tom Whalley.) "Confessions" is entirely a dance - driven pop disc. No message. No ballads. All fun. These days M seems serene as the chatelaine of an English manor, feeding the chickens, riding, tending to her children, etc. (She, her home and her kids are gorgeous in Vogue for August.)
But the once - shocking icon can still get into the groove. And she wants her fans to know it. The album hits stores in November.

Best - selling author and Daily Mirror writer MIRANDA SAWYER explains why Madonna's Live 8 performance proves the 47 - year - old is still the Queen of Pop.
ON A day when rock and pop veterans showed the new kids how to do it, Madonna stole the show.
Whether welcoming Birhan Woldu, the Ethiopian famine survivor saved by Live Aid's efforts, or berating VIPs in the "golden circle" in front of the stage - Lady Madge was in complete control.
All in white, an angel in strides, she led her band and dancers through an uplifting set that included Like A Prayer, Ray Of Light and Music.
Memories of a plump chick in leggings rolling about at the original Live Aid were forgotten as 21st century Madonna proved the older generation can do it better.
More than 20 years of performing means she know what she's doing and 47 years of life means she knows why.
Madonna, like Bono, understands the power of a perfect moment. And she was bold enough to seize it, combining both the Live 8 message and its medium, pop music, in a performance nobody watching will ever forget.
And it was a reminder of just how famous and special Madge still is. The girl has still got it - by the bucket - load.
Just weeks ago at the London premiere of Sin City, a red carpet paparazzi - fest where Brittany Murphy posed prettily alongside Clive Owen, Mickey Rourke, Michael Madsen and Jessica Alba, she stole the show.
When Her Madgesty and Guy turned up unexpectedly, it triggered a frenzy of photos. Her impromptu night out made the crowd's day and was covered in every paper.
And even the fuzziest of camera phone pictures couldn't disguise how great Madonna looked. In slick black gown, with beret, footless tights and T - bar shoes to remind us that she knows a) where fashion is at and that this wasn't her night (no upstaging premiere frock), she looked sparkly - eyed, glossy - haired and gorgeous.
Before Saturday night's breathtaking performance we were in danger of taking Madonna, a middle - aged working mother - of - two who just six years ago made London her home, for granted.
At the time, we couldn't believe it - the world's most famous woman has decided to move in with us.
Is that allowed? Shouldn't she be ensconced in some Beverly Hills enclave, some Miami mansion, New York penthouse, Cannes hideaway?
What's she doing in the UK, doing British things? Can that really be the Queen of Pop, in flat cap and baggy tracksuit, nipping along bus lanes on a bicycle?
Next thing she'll be extolling the virtues of drinking beer. Oh... "I love ale," said Madge last year. "I get drunk, but all it takes is half a pint. I'm a cheap date."
Yes, Madonna has fitted in just fine, adapting her efficient US habits to the UK's more relaxed way of life. When I interviewed her in 2000, she bemoaned British slackness - "At six o'clock, everyone goes home and no one works at the weekend and people go away for a month in the summer," she said, incredulously. But she also admired the way we enjoy "music and art and literature and nature".
Now, ever the culture sponge, she's taken on our characteristics. So we see Madonna going hunting (boo), going to a public gym (hooray) and writing children's books (hmmm).
A combination of a British marriage and British environment has changed her from distant superstar into a high - achiever who knows her way around, one who combines American drive with UK humour and a European appreciation of life's joys.
She's part of the British furniture these days. But has this familiarity bred contempt? Have we stopped caring what Madonna is up to? Judging by the crowd's reaction at Live 8, the answer is no - she's still one of the world's brightest, shiniest most talented celebrities.
A star who's famous because she's achieved more than any of us could ever imagine - unlike the wannabes wh hit the headlines after a drunken fumble with Calum Best.
Even in the short time she's been here, Madonna has produced a lifetime's work. She's released two albums, written four children's books, made one film with her husband and another with cult director Jonas Akerlund. She's starred in a West End play and progressed to the Third Series in Ashtanga yoga, which makes her one of the most advanced yogis in Britain. Enough to make you want to sit down for a cup of tea.
It's a shame her last album, American Life, was so ropey. Still, her forthcoming new one, reputedly called Defying Gravity (well, her body certainly does) is rumoured to be a return to form.
Saturday's performance was a corker, proving that with a back catalogue that Britney would kill for, a dancer's grace and a showwoman's sense of occasion, Madonna is one of the few pop stars who can pull off a stadium show.
There's been controversy about Kabbalah, a form of Judaism that's become an important part of her life since she moved to London.
And though Kabbalah seems hokum to most of us, Madonna is a devotee and if it makes her happy, what's the problem? If she's donating money to a non - violent cause, one that promotes peace, she's alright by me.
In her Re - Invention show, she showed a film of Palestinian and Israeli children holding hands.
It's not going to change any politician's mind, but it's better than pretending such problems don't exist, that it doesn't matter if the West turns its back on the Middle East.
Whatever Madonna does, she'll get attention, good or bad. She knows that, but it doesn't stop her having a go, trying new ideas.
Sometimes she succeeds, sometimes she fails. But she doesn't stop trying.
Live 8 proves her star still shines and reminds us how lucky we are to have her.

Great Article Briele! We think you rock! Love, Madonna, Liz & team.
Assistant Publicist at Warner Bros Records
Briele Douglass, 26
(click here for an image from the magazine).
What she does As the right hand woman to superpublicist Liz Rosenberg, Briele helps her boss be the mouthpiece for superstars like Madonna, Josh Groban and Cher and newcomers Renee Olstead and Michael Buble. "We work as a team to get them in magazines and on television." Says Briele. To do so, they spend a lot of time on the phone schmoozing with writers and editors who cover their stars. "Relationships are everything" says Briele. "(A journalist) is more likely to take your call if you have things in common and have chatted together"
How She got there She worked some close connections. While taking a semester off from the State University of New York at New Paltz, Briele got her dad, a music producer, to help her land an internship in the PR department at Elektra Records. " On my second day, I walked home going, "This is what I'm doing for the rest of my life" says Briele. "I immediately registered for school in the fall and switched my major to PR." Briele kept in touch with the company's human resources department, a move that helped her score the gig with Liz after graduation.
Perks Briele has total access to her artists. She gets to joike around with her sillier stars (Michael Buble crank calls her all the time); she walks right into sold out shows (she went to all six of Madonna's NYC gigs); and she has the occasional starstruck moment. "The first time I met Madonna, I was totally fine (around her)." says Briele. "(But afterward) I Immeidately called my friend and was like, "I just met Madonna!" It was like I'd gone back to being 13."
Drawbacks Representing such huge artists, Briele is often deluged by delusional fans. "This one guy thinks he and Madonna could develop some great ideas together and he calls twice a week!" says Briele.
This job is for you if . . . you're a music junkie with a thick skin and a serious gift of gab.

Madonna has produced five children's books in the past 18 months in a deal with Callaway Editions, and the fifth, 'Lotsa de Casha,' was supposed to be her last. But now she has decided to do a sequel about the tween girls who starred in her first book, 'The English Roses.'
It's already written and illustrations are under way, she says. The expected publication date is September 2006.
She decided to revisit the young girls who were jealous of a beautiful yet insecure classmate because it was the book closest to her heart and it's the favorite of her daughter Lola, she says.
'When I first started out (writing the books), I knew what the first book
would be about, jealousy and envy, which I did in 'The English Roses'....Girls can be especially hard on other girls,' Madonna said in a telephone interview.
Publisher Nicholas Callaway said Madonna still has many stories to tell. He also pointed out that 'The English Roses' was on The New York Times' list of best sellers for 18 weeks. 'Lotsa de Casha' has also made the Times list, debuting at No. 3.
'she identifies with the English Roses. She wants to help guide girls through that crucial stage of life,' Callaway said.
All of Madonna's books, however, teach a little lesson, and they've all been inspired by her own life.
'The ideas for all the books ultimately came from my own life experiences. This one was my realization that material things don't buy you happiness....If you don't have great success, how could you come to this conclusion? I had to go through this, and there were times in my life where I was perceived to have everything, yet I didn't feel fulfilled,' she said.
What has brought her happiness, she said, is her family - Lola, son Rocco and husband Guy Ritchie. Raising children has taught her how to share and take chances for the greater good, which aren't always at the forefront in the minds of most celebrities, she said.
'You have to be a lot less selfish. For me, real sharing and the growth of sharing is when you do something....outside your comfort zone.'
The children's books embody that philosophy for her, she said, noting that she doesn't take any money for writing them, instead she makes a donation to the Spirituality for Kids Foundation, an education and outreach arm of the Kabbalah Center.
