I've been wanting to get back to this fine compilation called Girls Alive since I posted a piece by Alisú last week. There is some really good work here. If you haven't already, get on it.
The track posted here today is by Riz Maslen, an electronic musician based in St Leonard's on Sea, Britain (UK). She has been on the scene since 1996 and is posting new music on Soundcloud.
She has a voluminous and rich discography. I was captured by the work featured on the Girls Alive collection and plan to explore more of her work in the coming days.
This is from the Wikipedia entry for Riz Maslen:
During the mid '90s, she worked with 4hero and Future Sound of London. After playing keyboards for The Beloved, she took out a loan, built a home studio and created her first albums there. In 1995 she signed as Neotropic under Ntone and soon after as Small Fish With Spine to Oxygen Music Works in New York.
Thanks to Modismo for turning me on to some new sounds. Liking Riz Maslen.

She describes her music in a note on Soundcloud:
Her compositions are warm and ambient, very delicate and feminine, always with contagious rhythms, subtle melodies and her processed voice plus robotic sounds.
