Step into the Groove

Advantages: Classic chilled albm which can be found hiding in bargain bins at music stores
Disadvantages: All good things come to an end...

Okay, okay! I know it’s a bad pun and I can hear your groans from here – but that was the best I could do! This opinion is about the stunning second studio album from Groove Armada, which was released in 1999 on Zomba Records. Admittedly I kind of missed the boat with them and only recently discovered them via a free CD that came with the “Later” magazine – shame on me! So when I saw it in the bargain basement at Amazon it was purchased immediately! ...
...fact Tom Findlay and Andy Cato who hail from London, but to record this album they headed to the backwaters of Ambleside in Cumbria. This album is entitled “Vertigo” and it lives in a special section of my CD collection along with Air’s “Moon Safari”, William Orbit’s “Pieces in a Modern Style” and Massive Attack’s “Blue Lines”. This section is of course is the “Chilled Zone” – a.k.a. “Music For Hangovers”. The battlecruise (booze cruise) hardened ...

VERTIGO

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

So it is time for another op, well I have decided to a crack down on my CD’s that I own, and let me tell you there are quite a few. As some of you may now I have an extremely wide taste in music, (Eva Cassidy and now Groove Armada!)? It is quite amazing actually; I can listen to classical and then turn on pop, dance or soul. This is what I adore about music, it is what you make it, you decide, and you stay in control. I was first introduced ...
...that?) and it came with a free CD. It had a wicked remix of ‘If Everybody Looked The Same’ and so I splashed out and got the album. When I first listened I was impressed, second time I was shocked and third amazed. This album releases new experiences every time you listen … 1. Chicago – This track starts really well, it has the sound of a car engine revving up and an eerie sound in the background that sounds great mixed together. ...

What An Album - Amazing

Advantages: Amazing chill out album - great grooves
Disadvantages: There are none.

I was lucky enough to be given a signed copy of this album by my sister - and was delighted. When i actually listened to the album - i was amazed. Such nice beats and vocals, and keyboards - it's such a damn good album Now that it's summer again (hopefully) this is one people should be buying again- it's a great summer album - really relaxing, chill-out grooves, from the single "At The River" - great trumpet, to the up-lifting "Blue Skies" - you ...

A good debut album

Advantages: Great harmonies
Disadvantages: Poor lyrics

Like their adverts say, the album boasts numerous songs that you've heard somewhere, such as "If Everybody Looked the Same" used in the film Miss Congeniality. On the whole, the songs are quite pleasant with good instruments although the lyrics do get repetitive. Having said that, you will come back to this album again and again. The great blend of harmonies and samples will ensure that. By far the best song on the album is "At the River" which ...
...and salty air..." and a beautiful layering of sounds which combine to leave a real peaceful impression. The cover design was below-par, with a style that is becoming rapidly clichéd, but it certainly did not stop me enjoying the music. This would make an ideal present for someone, even if they aren't interested in music. It's not of the same caliber of Moby or Fatboy Slim, but if you like their music you should enjoy Vertigo. ...
