Biography

It begins with a roll of the shoulder, then a pirouette and a dip of the head, eyes almost glued to the feet. The Zidane Turn, the signature move of famed French-born soccer player Zinedine Zidane, is truly one of the most extraordinary dance steps of modern times, remaining on a soccer field and kept off the world’s dance floors purely by the fact that only one man can do it. But its ... Read more in Amazon's Zero 7 Store

Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

This addition to the Another Late Night series follows on from the popularity of Zero 7's 2001 debut, Simple Things which coincided neatly with a collective penchant among the "staying in is the new going out" public for all things down tempo and chilled out. What better way to reward fans waiting for the next album than lending their record boxes to a compilation series that may as well have been dreamt up with them in mind.

Billed as an insight into the influences behind Simple Things, there aren't many surprises here, not in the sense that you'll know all the tracks--just that it sounds like this is what they were listening to when they were making the album. From the DJ Shadow-esque "Channel Suite 1" by the Cinematic Orchestra, to the The Stylistics trippy nursery version of "People Make the World Go Round", this is music to simultaneously open your heart and nod your head to. --Ruby Tuesday

4.0 out of 5 stars It took a while and then bang 13 Feb 2004
Format:Audio CD
This album was a real slow burner for me. I loved simple things and I suppose I was dissapointed when I didnt here similar tracks on this collection. Though I stuck with it and eventually the CD grew on me to the point that I was singing along with tracks or they were turning over in my head at work - a good sign for a CD for me.

All I can say is its worth buying but it may need a few listens. For me it took a while and then bang.

5.0 out of 5 stars Late Nights should all be like this 18 Nov 2003
Format:Audio CD
This is probably the best in the Another Late Night series (run by the people who do the also fabby Back To Mine, Another Fine Mess, Late Night Tales series), Zero 7 turn from smooth production artists to turntable masters in this selection of after hours grooves. I actually missed the entire Simple Things hype and ended up buying that after getting this. Simple Things was ok, if a little coffee table/hairdressers salon background music. This, however, pushes all the right buttons. Wonderful jazzy hip hop breaks open up the album with Sunrays, Quasimodo giving us hip hop lyrics that come from the school of intelligent thought, not the 'in da club' thought. Its not all sickly smooth either, the dub version of Roots Manuva's 1 Witness gives it a bit of grit, swinging dub beats, echoes that remind me of The Orb's Tower Of Dub. Great stuff!

The duo's musical talent shines through on the quality of mixing from one track to another. Listen to the way the lovely latin vibe of Pra Mahna slips into Herberts deep house reworking of Bonnie & Clyde. It just sounds like those two tunes were always meant to sit together like that, seamless. Its like that all the way through. Howie B's one of these mixes sounded like someone who was a bit over happy with the crossfader, this ... well its a completely different class. You journey from the opening hip hop grooves through soulful latin, a little sprinkling of acousitc guitars before finishing off with a smooth soul and 70's selection at the end. As in the tradition of the Another Late Night series, you also get a special cover by Zero 7 included just for this compilation, you won't find it on anything else aside from the limited 1000 7" copies of the track that were released at the same time as the album.

Its a really cracking mix, I think its the elements of all the styles used by Zero 7 here that works the magic, hip hop, funk, dub, house, latin, soul, acoustic ... all these give a perfect blissed out chill selection. If you have Simple Things, this is an essential purchase, if you don't, this is an even more essential purchase! It covers more ground, more moods than Simple Things, its got a better replay value, plus the mixing skills will wrap you up in a cosy little bubble of your own. You won't just listen to one track off here quickly, you'll listen to huge whole chunks!

If this perks your interest, check out Fila Brazillia's Another Late Night, equal fave for me. Plus as mentioned earlier, the other series that this company offer, mostly a stamp of unique quality. You'll find an insight into an artists mind and find the gems that make them all tick.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sources for Simple Things 20 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
Zero 7's studio album "Simple Things", in my humble opinion, is almost perfect and if I am in the right mood, it is probably amongst the best ever recorded. Consequently, like many others, I am aching for more. This compilation has been touted as an indication of the roots of "Simple Things" and in many ways you can see that as you listen to it. But do not expect "Simple Things" or even a diluted version of it. There is a vast array of musical types here, from Bossa Nova/Latin, Dub, Philly soul, hip-hop and downbeat accoustic/folky leanings. It is a very cool selection and worthy of a listen, but only if you have very broad musical tastes. I like it very much, but i listen to everything from Patsy Cline to Sibelius to Dr. Dre to Air to Turin Brakes. Not for your average CD buyer.
