Here what I've been listening lately:

There's some really interesting cross-over vocals/electronic on N5MD label:

Elise Mélinand: https://n5md.bandcamp.com/track/sur-loc-an-featuring-ocoeur

if you like that type of electronic, I recommend you to also check out for label mates like Vittoria Fleet and Asonat. Quality stuff!

On the most "main stream" side of things

Yppah:

Submotion Orchestra:

Future Brown:

what about FKA twigs?

I also love Katie Stelmanis from Austra ( I think she was trained to sing operatically)

I think all the ones I would have recommended have been posted. Apart from this which is amazing but it's a grower.

Nothing like what you described but I like these tracks

I don't know if this is what you mean but I love the music you posted so we may have similar tastes, anyway, I have recently been enjoying One Dove's only album a great deal.

Also, how has no-one mentioned Kate Bush yet, or is she too obvious a choice?

Damn completely forgot to put Kate Bush in my list.

She's really good.

of the top of my head, some of my favorite female singers I still and love to listen

jewel: her first album is the only thing I can really recommend. very special and hold a special place in my heart and of course, I would marry this girl :P
