The FADER’s “Songs You Need” are the tracks we can’t stop playing. Check back every day for new music and follow along on our Spotify playlist.

Róisín Murphy’s new song is called “Fader,” and if she wanted this magazine’s attention, she’s got it. The third single from Hit Parade, due out September 8 via Ninja Tune, its already the second to achieve a Song You Need certification — a rare honor indeed. We sincerely hope she’s happy.

Beyond the new track’s excellent title, it’s quite a good tune. Above a smooth soul groove embellished by occasional strings and a full brass section (all courtesy of DJ Koze, who’s producing the forthcoming record in its Hit Parade in its entirety), Murphy sounds like Macy Gray at her most sensuous, showing off the powerful pliability of her vocal chords. “Take your hands off, hater / Of my baby’s fader,” she sings on the hook. “When it comes to this song / You can’t play it too long.” Simple words indeed, but just bold enough to grab our attention without making us angry. Well played.

“Fader” arrives with a self-directed, black-and-white visual treatment shot in Murphy’s home town of Arklow, Ireland. The video focuses on a parade through the center of town, featuring Irish dancers, boy and girl scouts, and, of course, a brass band. Find Murphy’s statement on the short film below, as well as the clip itself, Hit Parade’s cover art and tracklist, and her upcoming tour dates.
