If Jimmy Edgar’s goal is to bridge the divide between haute couture classiness and lamé-spangled sleaze, XXX is the crystallization of his efforts to date. Breaking away from a previous indebtedness to his Detroit roots, XXX is pure homo house in drive, and entirely hetero electro in execution. Turn You Inside Out is the swankest thing he’s lent his (actual) name to, even if you get the distinct notion you’ll wake up on the floor of a loft apartment with it the next morning and not quite know how you got there.
