The one I have was released in the first half of the nineties (if my memory serves) on Rising High's sort-of-more-experimental sublabel Sapho (yes, with just one p). It is by Dominatrix, and has exactly the characteristics you describe. I have it at home so I can't check the details right away, but I'll search it from my shelf when I get there. Also, the vocals are not by Misstress Barbara, but by Plavka (of RHC (Rising High Collective) ``Fever Called Love'' and Jam & Spoon ``Right In The Night'' (and others) fame).
Misstress Barbara's biography states that she started DJing around 1994-1995, and I think the Dominatrix 12" was released before that (Sapho's last release, Influx's ``Unique'' 2xLP/CD (by James Bernard) was in 1994, I tried to check for the Dominatrix release from ad.techno.org but the discography is incomplete). And just to get the facts straight, here's a quick quote from her bio: Misstress Barbara (4 "s" as a word game between miss and stress) You can find the biography and a (partial) discography at http://www.tronicmusic.com/Artists/Misstress/ - it seems that she hasn't released anything of her own before 1999 so it would make it very probable that the record I have is the record you seek. There are quite many records of that kind floating around, so I can't be 100% sure but I have a definite hunch.
