MOLOKO | Forever More

saluting a diva ''Roisin Murphy''goes Molloko


Roisin Murphy, now a lot of you would not have the light bulb on when this name is mentioned amongst the greatest of house vocalists. Ok lets end your misery, she's probably known for her in bieng the front lady of the legendary Molloko. Roisin has been in the group for 18 years which formed when she meet with Mark Brydon in collage. They signed a deal for six album with Echo and released their first 1995 titled ''Do you like tight sweater''. In 2001 Molloko once again gave us one of the finest albums to date ''All black to the Mine'' which had the classic tune ''sing it back''

Roisin Murphy has been had at work in the years giving us sweet honey like voice on features whilst working on her own projects. She has three album under stature, she released her first one ''Ruby blue'' 2005 that's a cross over of styles whilst keeping in the electronic genre. Her music reaches all boundaries and seems to be appealing to European junkies. Roisin released her current album in 2010 titled ''Mommas Place" and I personally endorse this ladies effort.

This lady is sure one of house music pearls.
