ROISIN MURPHY: Momma’s Place (Beaumont Remix) + Blackbook Interview

It’s been a while since we posted any Roisin, but we’re back on the wagon today with a hot one! Check out this unofficial mix of Momma’s Place by Beaumont. I’m really feeling this mix and I think you’ll love it too!

Now I’ve got you in the mood for some Roisin check out this interview she did with Blackbook that she did a while back where she talks Music and Motherhood, check out an excerpt below…

What inspired you with these new songs?
Well, British urban music was inspiring music. Old house music was inspiring. I found drum machines very inspiring. I wanted raw sound. I wanted to make pure dance music. Certainly with “Momma’s Place,” I wanted a big epic club record. The next track I’ve done is “Demon Lover”—it’s urban-sounding. I’ve got UK MCs like Wiley, Kano, and Donaeo. They all inspired me. I was DJing a lot during pregnancy. People were giving me backing tracks and I was trying them while DJing. So I was able to figure out which tracks sort of really worked. That was inspiring. And of course being pregnant. Though secretly at first—when I wrote “Momma’s Place,” I didn’t tell the people I was working with I was pregnant. So I had this secret thing in my head. “Oh I have this song about me and the baby!” Nobody knew.

MOLOKO: Cannot Contain This (Gus Gus Remix) Flashback

A few weeks ago I heard this gorgeous remix at the fabulous Roisin Murphy Blog (the ultimate source for all Roisin news.) Cannot Contain This is one of my favorite Moloko tracks and this rare Gus Gus remix also really floats my boat. Wasn’t Statues just an incredible album start to end? Take a trip back in time with this and watch performance videos below! In the bottom one she sings a few lines from Prince’s  I Feel For You – amaze!

ROISIN MURPHY + Crookers: Royal T

New music from Roisin Murphy makes me scream at a pitch no ears should hear.  After hearing Ro perform Royal T at the Viktor and Rolf fashion show last year (video below), I knew it would be a treat to hear the proper version. I wasn’t let down in the slightest, this track is so meant for the clubs it’s not even funny.  I love the production and the fade out right in the middle. This one’s a sure fire hit, if this woman could get some recognition here in the U.S. already! – Matt
