The new album by the multi million selling trip-hop band Morcheeba hit the shelves on the 4th February 2008.
We havent heard much of the Brixton trip hoppers for five years since their last project ‘The antidote’, and the ”best of” album, ’Parts of the process’ which was also their last album to feature the vocals of the magnificent Skye Edwards, though this should not off putting to old fans as faith is restored in the Godfrey brothers’ new record with the single ‘Enjoy the ride’, featuring the vocals of veteran singer Judie Tzuke, the folk rock, hip hop influenced track blends beutifal acoustic guitar strums against wonderfully crafted bouncy beats ands rhythms.
The album also has contributed vocals from the likes of relative newcomers Thomas Dybdahl from Norway on the track ‘Riverbed’, rapper Cool Calm Pete, and Manda, a French singer who contacted the band via the well known global social networking website, Myspace, having said that it was her dream to work with Morcheeba, Manda was asked to guest on the single ‘Gained the world’.
Despite the absence of Skye’s vocals and the usual chillout mood from the band they are well known for ‘Dive deep’ delivers something that offers a variety, with the numerous appearences of vocalists Morcheeba are offereing a fresh approach to their world, and simply enjoying the chance to expand and go beyond one genre of music, as the Godfrey brothers dont like generally being labelled as trip-hop.
‘Dive deep’ is something not to be missed by old fans and new. This album has to be fully enjoyed from the first second till the record stops playing, this album needs to be understood in todays terms, put aside those genre catagorizing opinions and thoughts and listen to some elegantly sung vocals and cleverly crafted tunes, music like this only comes around every so often.
