The Sheffield-based dance-pop duo Moloko is the end result of Irish-born singer Roisin Murphy's attempt to pick up mixer/producer Mark Brydon at a 1994 party with the come-on, "Do you like my tight sweaterNULL See how it fits my body." Brydon saw musical potential in her attitude, and the two formed a creative and romantic partnership.



Murphy, who had never sung outside of the shower before, was a newcomer to the music business. However, Brydon had many years of experience with U.K. house music acts House Arrest and Cloud 9, helped found Sheffield's Fon studios, and remixed artists like Eric B & Rakim and Psychic Tv. Soon after forming Moloko, they released their debut single, "Where Is the What If the What Is in the WhyNULL," and signed to Echo Records.
