I never got excited by Moloko, and Matthew Herbert's work has also eluded my interest, but I got turned on to Róisín Murphy's new album Ruby Blue and it's awesome. I find it curious that I haven't seen it mentioned on this list (maybe I just didn't notice it). It's got a very classy/jazzy feel, but it's also quite experimental, verging on pop-IDM... Ms. Murphy's voice is a joy, and the songwriting is fun. The whole release is worth checking out, though there are a couple of weak spots. The best tracks, if you want a taste-test, are "Sow Into You", "Night Of The Dancing Flame" and "If We're In Love." And the title track's a bluesy kick in the pants... Check it out, everyone :) -Adam --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
