She's decided to become a puppeteer

it's a live version of "flash in light" that went up on streaming, seems like she might be about to announce a live album?

https://roisinmurphy.bandcamp.com/track/flash-of-light-live-in-berlin

really gorgeous

one-off youtube stream of A Film By Roisin Machine starts in seven minutes, RM will be in the chat

audience video of that Flash of Light in Berlin starts at 1:11:22 here:

so she was crowdsurfing during part of that, which explains the crowd noises during the song

apologies - I tried to put the audio to the video and I couldn't, so then I noticed it's not the same evening. Audio was May 15th, video above is from the 16th. The intros aren't the same length, for one :-)

except... I'm so confused. They only played one night in Berlin, the 16th? is this audio heavily recut or something? AND it mentions the wrong day?

I watched the livestream yesterday. Fabulous stuff. Apparently it's going to be up for a few days so check it out if you're a fan. Apparently she's bringing the curtain down on the Roisin Machine period, so on to the next thing.

re: flash of light : or maybe it was recorded on the 15th after all, but it was in Utrecht, NL (Tivoli/Vredenburg). anyway. I give up.

Loving you is easy
It’s the leaving that’s hard

WAITAMINUTE! Leaving you hard? mmmmmmmmm

So - updates!

The Koze album is probably coming late in the Northern Hemisphere summer. Its rumoured title is Hit Parade and it will be released by Ninja Tune.

A single, "Can't Replicate", is available on limited edition vinyl. No word on when - or if - it will be available to stream or download, although it's being used in DJ sets already, like this one for example. (Seems to have a Lil Louis sample running through it). If you follow Róisín on instagram, you might've heard an early version of the track here - while I like the edit's techno throb, I do hope this iteration will become available somewhere down the line, and I kind of wonder if it is the album version as it sounds a lot more...Koze-y.

Then there's another, sunny track that Róisín has been teasing on TikTok - rumoured title "CooCool". See here for a bit of that.

interesting that it's credited to both

"can't replicate" is great, but i agree that the 2020 snippet also sounds very promising and i hope it emerges eventually

ninja tune!!

should have called themselves Koze 'n' Murphy

"coocool" is out in a few days

That sounds very promising

Chorus is a bit silly for me but Koze and Murphy make a great team. It sounds great. Excited for a full album of them together.

It's out, and it's love at first listen for me. Its such a perfect almagamation of her more experimental side with her pop side, while venturing and implementing into a more R&B side, particularly with the vocals and the samples used on this

incredible imo

oh god YES

10/10

Love that. Hope she announces the album soon.

so glad this completely delivers

hit parade out september 8

really good stuff!

feels like a pretty similar wavelength to the last avalanches album just much better?

I want to hear this album, but I DO NOT want to look at this cover every time I do.

My new album ‘HIT PARADE’ will come to you on SEPTEMBER 8TH. Pre-order the album from my store to access the pre-sale for the headline show at ALEXANDRA PALACE. My new single ’THE UNIVERSE’ is in the world RIGHT NOW and available to stream & save here! 🌀 https://t.co/GMU1gAwdjG pic.twitter.com/NZbuJI6VZb

The song sounds lovely and excited for the whole thing. September seems so far away. This one was ripe for summer.

I agree on the album cover, the AI artwork for that one and the singles is really ugly looking.

bunch of new songs live, i really like "free will" especially

Sean Johnston drops the Payfone remix of You Knew one hour 55 minutes into this mix. Sounds absolutely amazing.

https://www.mixcloud.com/delscott/alfos-ebs41-sean-johnston-09-06-2023/

i love these two singles more than anything from "roisin machine".

"Can't Replicate" is apparently a 1000-copies vinyl-only release, at least for now, which is a shame because it's essentially "French Kiss" with a slinky diva vocal

also the artwork is the same artist who did the last two Westerman albums, which makes total sense to me

"can't replicate" is on the album, though it's a different edit to the single

feeling some of those live songs. not feeling “coocool” (“the universe” is fine). deeply not feeling the visual aesthetic of this album.

Lovely track, lovely video

excited to hear this one

yes!

As posted upthread, the Payfone remix of that sounds great.

Also loving the Lil Louis influenced Can't Replicate

that whole ALFOS mix is excellent, the Alison Goldfrapp single sounds amazing in it as well as this Payfone remix

Wait what are you talking about? Has it leaked?

https://www.mixcloud.com/delscott/alfos-ebs41-sean-johnston-09-06-2023

they're talking about the remix of "you knew" in this mix at ~1:55:00, which was linked upthread
