Norman Cook, aka Fat Boy Slim, is no stranger to high-profile collaborations. But his latest project might just take the cake. In fact, it does... like totally. As we told you back in October , Cook and David Byrne have once again teamed up for a rather unique project. Following in the footsteps of The Brighton Port Authority’s I Think We’re Gonna Need a Bigger Boat , the legendary duo hit the studio with a number of other high-profile musicians for a concept album based on the life of former first lady [...]
Upon first hearing "Orally Fixated", most people wouldn't even get close to guessing what it's really about. Róisín Murphy has always been a champion of song writing in my eyes. She has an unmatched ability to express simple concepts in complex ways, and also a knack for bold studio production. The song, in fact, is about Murphy having to give up smoking when she got pregnant, and how she was orally fixated on cigarettes throughout the pregnancy. Now, as her new baby is due [...]
Róisín Murphy's last album, Overpowered, was something of a lost pop classic. Mixing warm electronica with pop hooks Kylie would claw Dannii 's eyes out for, it seemed destined to catapult Murphy back to the upper reaches of the charts after her time with Moloko . Of course, this didn't happen and despite releasing nearly half a dozen singles, Murphy was dropped by her label and forced to watch as Little Boots et al came along to fill the gap marked 'intelligent electro pop starlet'. Murphy is currently focusing on [...]
A pesar de su avanzado embarazo, Róisín Murphy ha decidido no aflojar el paso y seguir trabajando en su música. De hecho, la cantante está preparando una nueva producción discográfica, aún sin nombre, de la cual presentó el día de ayer su primer sencillo. El tema se llama "Orally Fixated" y no sólo es una canción directa y pegajosa, también tiene fuerza, la increíble voz de Roisin, rumbos electrónicos y hasta un sorpresivo solo de guitarra. Por si fuera poco, el sencillo viene acompañado de una sugestiva portada en la que se [...]
Bij het horen van Moloko afgelopen vrijdag in De Melkweg (eh gewoon een DJ die het draaide, niet dat je denkt van huh sinds wanneer treden zij weer op) borrelde de vraag op of Róisín al weer eens met wat nieuwe dingen bezig zou zijn. Niet verwacht dat ik zo snel anwoord zou krijgen op deze vraag. Róisín Murphy - Orally Fixated Click here to view the embedded video. Beetje gejat van Shakira die titel maar ok met zo'n geweldige gitaarsolo in een dancetrack [...]
Highly underrated queen of UK ElectroPop Róisín Murphy returns this month with her eagerly anticipated new single ‘Orally Fixated’. Never one to completely bow to the mainstream, Róisín litters ‘Orally Fixated’ with broken beats and cut up samples that power through a spacious 80’s sounding mix (huge reverb washed snares!) before unexpectedly dropping a wailing guitar solo! Experimental and Pop seem like two diametrically opposed terms, but Ms. Murphy skilfully brings the two together and takes them both to the disco. ♫ Róisín Murphy - Orally Fixated (zShare) [...]
The lady who some people claim Lady GaGa stole borrowed her style from, Róisín Murphy, is back with her first of three new singles from her upcoming third studio album. The song is entitled "Orally Fixated" and it surely is one heck of an electro-pop song. So sexual and loose, this song's subject matter is about oral sex but that's not where the goodness ends. This song is one retro-electro surprise as it comes in from all over the place with its synths and everything else musical. Murphy rides the instrumentation with such style and signature [...]

Hot new pop alert! ArjanWrites.com fave Roisin Murphy will premier her much-anticipated new single on Monday at noon EDT on her MySpace page . Yay! I have listened to some of her new tracks and I can guarantee you that you will not be disappointed. Roisin's new material will blow off your roof. It is fingerlickin' good. Her new work is a lot grittier and edgier. In your face if you will. It is raw, it is dance, it is dance floor blues like only Roisin can bring it. Knowing how to combine style and substance [...]
It's the most wonderful time of the year! And since you've all been such good ghouls and boys, I'm handing out my biggest bag of treats yet. I've added to last year's Halloween mix, and it is now a lurching monster of 66 tracks. You can download the entire mix as a zip file at the bottom of the list. I will be attending my fair share of Halloweeny events this year (I already went to a book launch dressed as Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas, but that's a surreal story for another time), including a Neil [...]
Róisín Murphy mola horrores y está de vuelta! La relación que tienen Viktor & Rolf con la cantante se ha evidencia varias veces en el pasado. En esta oprtunidad Róisín musicalizó el más reciente runway show de la pareja de diseñadores en el fashion week de París. Maravilloso.

So Fabulous. Dressed in a pink tutu standing on a special platform, a highly-pregnant Roisin Murphy tonight at Viktor & Rolf Spring/Summer 2010 show in Paris. After previously inviting Tori Amos and Rufus Wainwright, the acclaimed Dutch design duo invited Roisin Murphy to perform at their show this year. Check out the entire video of the show at the Viktor & Rolf web site . Roisin performed two brand-new tracks, including "Demon Lover," a stomping, grimey house-pop track. Check for more video at the excellent Hopeless Optimis t blog.
It's impossible to forget that Viktor & Rolf dress that Roisin Murphy wore on the single sleeve for "Overpowered." In fact, it is more like a portable sounstage with its own sound and lighting rig. Roisin will partner again with the two Dutch designers this upcoming Saturday for a special outing in Paris. She will be performing brand-new musical material atViktor & Rolf's Spring/Summer 2010 fashion show. Viktor & Rolf are big fans of Roisin who perfectly fits their focus. "We are attracted and inspired by what we call mega-women: strong women who follow their own [...]
Roisin Murphy premiered a few new songs at Burlectric at London's SeOne Club last night. Have a listen to brilliant "Billionant," a funked up mash of urban and '90s club music that sounds totally incredible. Fantastic ! So excited about what's to come. Have a listen. (via Roisin Murphy )
pp Roisin Murphy is feeling fabulous, healthy, hopeful, creative and happy these days. There's no time for controversy to spoil that mood. So it wasn't a surprise that the singer was quick to put out an official statement to address a brewing controversy about some unfortunate misquotes in the Irish and British press about Lady Gaga.pp She wanted to provide some additional commentary for fans and opted to speak with ArjanWrites.com and Raj of EQ to provide a little more info about what happened and bring fans up to date about what she has [...]
I just got off the phone with ROISIN MURPHY for an exclusive interview about her forthcoming new music, the statement about Lady Gaga and much more. Look for the full interview on ArjanWrites.com on Wednesday morning. (Follow me on Facebook for updates.)
I have an uncharacteristically complicated relationship with the wonderful Roisin Murphy. I absolutely throw it down when one of her tracks comes on. She is everything I look for in a female vocalist with an electronic twang. However, I have never really cared of any of her releases or bothered to go out and purchase any of her albums until I find them in some clearance bin. I've had a tumultuous few weeks with Roisin's debut album, Ruby Blue . I have been going back and forth, sometimes enjoying it thoroughly and other times pushing it aside, [...]
