Roisin is working on a Italian EP
Roisin is working on an Italian EP with producer Brigante.
Here is what he told Resident Advisor:
I am working on a very special Italian EP with Roisin Murphy. Having worked with her on a song for the album I discovered she is a bit of an Italian-ist too—certainly capable of the drama associated with divas such as Mina or Patty Pravo! We have started with a cover version of a song that my uncle wrote for Mina in 1969. She is singing in Italian!
Roisin previously worked with Brigante on the song Crea Ni Forna, featured in the Christophe Coppens S/S 2012 ad. She will also feature on the upcoming Luca C & Brigante album.

New music: SIMULATION!
Roisin talked about this song a few weeks ago, but I didn't expect it to surface quite so soon. But here we have it: Simulation, a collaboration with a mystery producer from northern England.
9 minutes of deep house bliss. Enjoy!

Electonic Beats interview
A short yet informative interview with Roisin at the Electronic Beats festival in Zagreb the other day. She speaks of a few new collaborations that will be released some time in the future.
How does it feel as an independent artist these days?
Fine, good. I haven't been doing very much music recently, but I'll get back into it.
Any plans to return to EMI or not?
I don't know, what we'll release next.
After 'Orally Fixated', 'Demon Lover' and 'Momma's Place', there haven't been any new releases, you've been pregnant with your daughter. How did this huge personal step influence you as an artist?
Well, I took a lot of time off; and quite often I think, I was ready and then realised I wasn't. I didn't quite have the identity to go for with the whole album. I didn't have in mind the kind of an artist, that I want to be … after baby … after 6 albums. And this is still forming for me, to be honest.
Did you work on any new songs since then?
Yes, I've worked on few bits & pieces. I have recorded a track with David Morales, and that will be on his record, I've done a big, sexy song called Simulation with some people, and it will be performed tonight.
Your latest new work comes in form of a duet: Tony Christie's '7 Hills' …
Friends of mine from Sheffield were working on an album and asked me to write a track and it turned into a duet.
There were quite a lot of collaborations for you lately. Why did you choose to focus on collaborations?
It's really hard to answer why I do those things, but basically things just come into my life. People chose me already and I've just reacted. It's more a reaction then a proaction recently, so if somebody ask me to do something I like, Ill do it. And usually that's how everything works in my life. I allow it to kinda happen to me. And that's how my career has always been - I'm waiting for things to happen.
When will your next solo release come out and what can we expect from it?
I don't know and I don't know.
You previewed your song 'Demon Lover' for the first time during the Viktor & Rolf 2009 Paris Fashion Week show. How did this came together?
They just asked me to collaborate musically and I did something almost like now, DJ and sang. Simple as that.
Any plans of repeating this kind of event?
There are always things going on with connection to fashion for me. I love it, so you never know.
