Moloko’s third album Things to Make and Do marks a shift in the sound of the duo, with tracks more reliant on live musicians. The first single “The Time Is Now” became Moloko’s biggest hit, peaking at number two in the UK. Roisin Murphy’s singing style, combining a variety of voices and textures, is as impressive as ever before. Mark Brydon’s musical palette is versatile and powerful, going from rock/dance to electro and hip-hop. It is a great album from start to finish, including fan favourites “The Time Is Now”, “Pure Pleasure Seeker” and “Sing It Back (Boris Musical Mix)”. As masters of their own domain they created another excellent piece of music. Things to Make and Do held the record as Echo’s (label) fastest-selling UK platinum record for six years.[info sheet from distr.]
