isn't that Gladys Knight's voice?

Yeah looks like it is - totally mistook it for roisin

that really does sound a lot like roisin though tbh

All My Dreams/Innocence, the first of four 12" singles produced by Maurice Fulton, is now available to preorder from @TheVinylFactory on beautifully artworked 12" vinyl here: https://t.co/pDdyiNNC4m Vinyl is released on 18th May along with the first of a series of visuals...

It was premiered on Nemone's radio show yesterday. It sounded really good - probably the most "pop" thing either of them have done in a good while.

that's out digitally now and both tracks rule

oh boy

wow they’re both great

i can’t wait to make these singles my arbitrary album of the year

£20 for a single? £80 for an eight track album is taking the piss.

Of the two, I think I prefer 'Innocence'

I would bet this turns into an album, the same way Sequins did

I'm just now listening to these

!!!

i can’t wait to make these singles my arbitrary album of the year

^

There's nothing arbitrary about it, surely. When they're all out that's an album. I'm sure it will be sold as such post-vinyl release.

lol i briefly forgot that sequins turned into ruby blue so i trust y’all

The ep is good - very electro - do you like my tight sweater cubes

I think I prefer Innocence but I also think at this point I prefer Maurice Fulton to Roisin Murphy

She reminds me of mike Patton in her dismantling of styles

Take her up to Monto is all time

Was loving that Seinfeld bass on house of glass remix so more of that on all my dreams is alright by me

another new about 32 mins into this:

the whole project feels very "Seventh Heaven" doesn't it

Sounds a lot like Maurice Fulton's prior work with Kathy Diamond on Miss Diamond to You (2006).

pointless anecdote but i met kathy diamond at a carboot fair last summer. would never have recognised her but she was selling a load of household things - furniture and stuff like that - and on the ground under a table i spotted a pile of about 20 records which turned out to be all the last remaining copies of her debut 12" so i was all 'ah wait a second, is this you!?'

I always think of the first Kathy Diamond album as being very weightless and floaty in a different way to this. I love her, everything she sings on is instantly brilliant. What did she say when you realised it was her? I heard she had been very ill for a few years.

oh i just asked her some fairly boring general questions about making music cos unfortunately my knowledge of her music is about as deep as an ant's bathtub. all that was running through my mind was 'oooh I seen your name! On ILX!'

Plaything: like
Like: like!

What is this???

wow @ "plaything"

'plaything' is catnip for me

Damn

not as good as the last few but what would be

the new songs are all good while yr listening but unmemorable.

that's how I felt about her last albums but I'm the opposite with these singles, they are much more direct and distinctive

^ take her up to monto is great

I feel the opposite to you boxedjoy

All my dreams is a little too agitated for me unless I’m in the right mood. I mean Fulton was a good choice but his house of glass remix is superior imo

Hairless toys freak

Owch that should say for the win

legend

loving the EPs released this year - hope she does a full length soon or a LP with Fulton, they have serious chemistry

based on her recent interviews that doesn't seem to be a space she's right now

*space she's in

I mean we're basically getting a full album's worth of material from her this year

mix six six six

While I'm not terribly familiar with the Fulton collaboration EPs, I believe that's a new Murphy/Fulton track at 37:40.

Sorry, that's just Jackie Moore - "This Time Baby" (1979), not listed in the track listing.

Sadly shows how shallow my disco knowledge is, despite decades of interest.
