Taken off the album "A normal family", the original track builds up
a nice atmosphere, being on the tiny edge separating accessible
trip-hop and easy chart-success aiming, always managing to stay on
the right side. It somehow reminisces William Orbit "Strange Cargo
III" ambiances as well, which is no surprise considering singer
Christine Ann Leach involvment in the project and Guerrilla
records.
There are a couple of quite worthy remixes on this CD single too,
with a D'n'B version by DJ Krust, a nice uptempo pumping bass loop
on the Interference dub version and the airy 'Orpheus' self-remix.
just skip the disposable and annoying Cygnus X trance version i
left only to keep the release complete.
from http://home.earthlink.net/~ptatohed/babyfox.html :
Baby Fox are a normal family. Christine Ann Leach, Alex Gray and
Dwight are three friends who came together through a mutual love of
words, pictures and music. These three individuals discovered in
each other an inspirational and unifying source of energy which
manifested itself in music: wayward experimental, slow-burning
grooves, jazz-fused dub tapestries, stitched together by a maverick
ear. Back in time when London's clubs were buzzing to breakneck
beats per minute, Baby Fox's laidback dub-plates seemed like weirdo
music. It was just the trio's attempt to portray their own version
of normality. "The original thing was all a bit of a laugh,
actually," laughs Alex. "We went to the second hand shops and
bought outfits to wear in the studio." ...
