Ananova:

Christina Aguilera says her next studio record will have an electronic edge.

The US singer has revealed that spells of listening to the likes of Ladytron and Goldfrapp have heavily influenced the creative process for her fourth studio album, the follow-up to 2006's Back To Basics.

According to Billboard, Christina also plans to team-up with long-term collaborator Sia Furler on the record, and aims to enter the studio with the Zero 7 star next year.

She told Billboard: "I'm definitely a fan of Sia's. I was thrilled she also wanted to work together and, in turn, was a fan of mine."

"[We are] setting the wheels in motion now. I'm not exactly sure what we're gonna get in the studio together, but there's probably magic to be had."

Christina's new best of album, Keeps Gettin' Better: A Decade Of Hits, is out now.
