The Gimme More singer has turned to the knob-twiddler- whose real name is Christopher Mercer- to work on her next record.

A report in the L.A Weekly reveals Rusko is currently in the city prepping tracks for the album.

The producer has worked on M.I.A’s new album including her track XXXO which leaked this week.

He’s also just released his own album OMG!- which features rapper Gucci Mane and members of the Dirty Projectors on vocals.

It’s no surprise that Britney has chosen to embrace dubstep. The club sound has increasingly influenced chart tracks while Snoop and Rihanna have both worked with British duo Chase & Status on songs.

Spears has worked extensively with electro influenced producers Bloodshy &Avant- who are also behind band Miike Snow.
