Roisin Murphy collaborating w/ Maurice Fulton on 12" singles series (listen)

Roisin Murphy is releasing a series of four 12″ singles this year, all of which feature the percussion-heavy production of house maestro Maurice Fulton (whose CV includes work on Crystal Waters’ classic “Gypsy Woman.”) “Ultimately its about dancing,” says Murphy. “My kind of dancing: all low and funky, allowing itself to be a little out of control. It’s all very simple in a way but Maurice has spent a lifetime immersed in music for dancing. His experience and depth of knowledge is undeniable. I did as I was told!” You can listen to both sides of the first 12″ — the bass-poppin’, tribal drum-filled “All My Dreams” and the more traditionally housey “Innocence” — below.

The 12″ singles are each limited to 1000 copies worldwide and feature artwork by Portuguese New Yorker Braulio Amado. Vinyl is out May 18 (preorder).

Last in NYC for last year’s Pride Island, Roisin doesn’t have any North American dates at the moment but she does have European dates this summer. All dates listed below.
