Madonna enlists Les Rhythmes Digitales for new LP

Madonna is planning to collaborate with Les Rhythmes Digitales' Stuart Price on her new album.

The pair met when Price took time out from his other projects to play keyboards for her Drowned World tour.

Recording will begin in January.

Madonna said: "We fooled around with remixes and were doing a lot of the tracks for the actual live show.

"Then we talked about working on stuff for my next album, and he's already working on music for me. So I'm going to try that collaboration."

Madonna will also team up again with French producer Mirwais, who helped produce Music.
