Richard X feat Javine - You Used To

Following his recent collaboration with Kelis, the left-field pop maestro now teams up with Britain's up-and-coming soul diva, Javine Hylton.

Hylton's voice is as sweetly smooth and soulful as ever but Mr X fails to sparkle his usual magic on the tune. The other track, Into You, is a whole different story though - Jarvis Cocker is roped in for a beautifully atmospheric ballad which samples Mazzy Star's lost classic Fade Into You to absolutely spine-tingling effect.

A CD of two halves then, but Into You is worth the price of the first disc alone - reassurance for Pulp fans who may have lost faith in Cocker after the Relaxed Muscle project.
