unlike the fifteen piece (yes, it does take that many musicians to
recreate the sound) band employed for their stunning live show,
zero 7 are principally a duo, namely sam hardaker and henry binns.
from north london, both studied sound engineering and sharpened
their production skills before making the decision to break out on
their own. in piecing the record together sam and henry have
pulled together some exceptional vocal talent, providing diversity
to the recording as well as the live outing. mozez, who on tracks
"i have seen" and "simple things" demonstrates a sweet, soul
delivery that will please fans of marvin gaye and maxwell alike.
the distinctive, dulcet tones of australian born sia furler
embellish the lush instrumentation of "distractions" with more
husk than a wheat field whilst the vocal partnership with the
sublime and as yet unsigned sophie barker on "destiny" soar on a
summer thermal to new heights. characterised by rhodes piano,
sweeping strings and gentle, parping brass their music is way
beyond the monikers of 'chill out' or 'ambient', it is soul food
from the lounge room at the end of the universe. ignore any
comparisons you might read or hear about this band, whatever they
are they won't do zero 7 any justice, the only thing that will is
your undivided attention.
live at transmusicales de rennes 2001.
