The British dance act's classic 2001 chillout album, the perfect combination ofsoaring strings, subtle beats, lush sound and sensational soulful vocals. 12 tracks. Standard jewelcase.

Zero 7's latest release with Atlantic, 'Record' is a retrospective collection of the last 10 years with tracks and remixes from their previous four albums plus a track from their very first EP that was released on limited vinyl. The band will be promoting the record with a 'Zero 7 DJ's' tour and a host of UK and European festival appearances are already in place. US dates to come.

Zero 7, aka Sam Hardaker and Henry Binns, are back with a gorgeous new album, The Garden. It was produced by Sam and Henry and mixed by Phil Brown, who has worked with such luminaries as the Rolling Stones, Brian Eno and Talk Talk. It features vocal performances by Jose Gonzalez, Sia Furler and Henry Binns. The band’s previous albums, Simple Things and When It Falls, were critically acclaimed and rooted them firmly alongside Royksopp & Lemon Jelly as leaders in their field. The Garden sees Zero 7 take a fresher, more upbeat musical direction while still maintaining their trademark sound, and could well turn out to be the soundtrack to the summer.

2009 release, their fourth album from the Brit Chillout duo, following 2006's The Garden'. Not content to make the same album again, with Yeah Ghost they have turned in a markedly different work brimming with new ideas, from funky uptempo club bouncers, through avant-garde Ambient, to Indie-influenced, organic-sounding tracks like the single 'Everything Up (Zizou)'. Features vocals from folkie Martha Tilston and the soulful, throaty Eska Mtungwazi, who has performed with Matthew Herbert.

2010 release from the British Hip Hop duo (producers Henry Binns and Sam Hardaker), a collection of hand-picked highlights from Zero 7's first decade. From backroom bods to the Hollywood Bowl, from tiny specialist shops to a million-selling album, from losing more singers than a Broadway musical and trucking on regardless, Zero 7's story has always been about thinking that little big bigger. Record features tracks from their Mercury Prize nominated, million selling debut album Simple Things and also includes tracks taken from their subsequent Gold selling albums as well as rare, previously unreleased tracks such as 'Salt Water Sound'. Not only does Record document 10 years of Zero 7, it also offers a chance for fans to relive those lazy, hazy summer nights. In the words of DJ Rob Da Bank, Record is a collection of genre-defining classics.

Out of print in the U.S.! A rare find in these days of corporate compilations ; a mix CD which manages to introduce artists new to the listener and give insight into the influences of the compilers, while being an excellent listen from start to finish. That the record manages to flow while including such a wide variety of styles is evidence not only of Zero 7's expert mixing skills, but of their understanding of the music and what makes it work together. Features songs from Roots Manuva, Slum Village, Cinematic Orchestra, Jim O'Rourke, Joy Zipper and many others.
