Róisín Murphy has shared the latest single from her forthcoming album ‘Hit Parade’.

Once again produced by DJ Koze, You Knew is the fourth piece of the puzzle to be shared from the forthcoming record, following CooCool, The Universe and Fader, tackling themes of unrequited love and existentialism across a backdrop of swirling synthesisers and looping FX.

“You Knew is the story of my life. I’m an open book, I put myself on the line and I make my motivations obvious,” says Róisín. “Many times, I have bravely loved and not been loved in return, and I’m proud of that. That phrase You Knew just sums it all up, in fact you could put it on my headstone, except I’ve already decided it’ll say… ‘You Had Your Chance!’”

Alongside the track, the former Moloko star has dropped remixes courtesy of PAYFONE and Eli Escobar.

Listen to You Knew below.

‘Hit Parade‘ – out September 8 – is billed as a “compendium of genre-melding gems” and marks her debut on the Ninja Tune label.

“We worked remotely, in different countries sending tracks/ideas back and forth for several years. I always have to approach a new collaboration with openness and a willingness to learn and never more so than with this,” she explains.

“The studio in this case was imaginary, in the airspace between Hamburg and London. That meant we were both in a personal, private place when working on the songs.

“For me that brought out a more intimate approach to the songwriting, I told this album my secrets. For Koze it meant total freedom and absolute focus without the distraction of my presence. He took a deep dive into himself and I believe that’s why the music is so vibrant and alive. It is just exploding with colour!”

Admitting she’s “never been happier” than she is right now, ahead of unveiling the follow-up to 2020’s ‘Róisín Machine’, the Moloko legend adds: “For me the record is about love and sensuality but also it’s about music itself and how it’s always been there for me.

“There are tinges of darkness, of the abyss, as well as all the joy. There’s contemplation of mortality which is meant to serve as reminder to me (and perhaps you the listener) to really live while we can.”
