Momma’s Place – Roisin Murphy
Former Moloko frontwoman Roisin Murphy is back with a brand new 90s-esque single – think The Real McCoy meets Lisa Stansfield meets Cathy Dennis (and kudos to you if you get any of those references).
Preview the song on YouTube (no video yet).

Try Me/My Name – McLean
Ok, technically this is two songs, but one great new artist to check out. Dubbed a “modern day Marvin Gaye” he’s got a voice like velvet. While “Try Me” is an acoustic number, “My Name” is one of the best electro-ballads we’ve heard in a while.
Download “Try Me” for free at http://grabatrack.co.uk/mclean.

Rocket – Goldfrapp
Goldfrapp blast off back to the 80’s with their catchy new single “Rocket.” Dare you to get this one out of your head.
This one’s a bit of a tease … not out until March, but you can get a sneak peak on some savvy music blogs.
