Product Description
CD Description
From the late 80's, The Beloved spent a decade enjoying great success as a duo that wholeheartedly
embraced dance music and played their part in heralding the acid age. After first emerging with the ambient-styled single The Sun Rising the Beloved then scored an international hit with Hello a bubbling techno exercise which name-checked many of the group's influences.
embraced dance music and played their part in heralding the acid age. After first emerging with the ambient-styled single The Sun Rising the Beloved then scored an international hit with Hello a bubbling techno exercise which name-checked many of the group's influences.
The group enjoyed chart success on no fewer than 11 occasions, cracking the top 10 with 1993
hit Sweet Harmony and causing a media-stir with a rather risqué video. The track featured on the
highly successful album Conscience, just one of their four chart albums, and this collection features no fewer than 10 tracks from that smash hit album.
Beloved founding member Jon Marsh still enjoys a flourishing career as a DJ and Beloved hits are
constantly being remixed. 20 years have passed since the height of acid house and rave culture
and the music from this era is enjoying an increased success in today's compilation market.
This is the first 2CD mid price Beloved compilation available in the market.

This is a great overview of a duo (firstly Jon & Steve, then Jon & Helena) who's music was the underground hippie-trippie sound of the late 80's and the hi-energy electronic sound of the early 90's. So underground in fact that mostly they passed the mainstream by with pretty much a whimper. This is a great shame as much of their music is almost perfect whilst the rest is... actually perfect (and beautiful in parts too). If you've not heard much of them this is a cheap and cheerful way of looking through their back catalogue. I'm STILL hopeful that Jon might put out a new album. Check out his myspace page for (newer) stuff or go to their website for numerous remixes of their recordings BUT you need to get this CD too. Well done to the record company for putting together a cracking double CD!

A superb overview of this truly underrated band. This comprehensive BEST OF has been a long time coming, but now it's here, it's been well worth the wait. Every song you'll need from this band on a crammed double CD, with a revealing essay too that makes interesting reading.
Full credit too must go to The Music Deluxe label (part of the Demon Music Group), who have produced a great selection of music at a very affordable price. It's great to see that there are still some record companies who care about the music and the fans at the same time. BRILLIANT!

This CD shows how The Beloved become so amazing with his unique sound making dance music without be stupid. I bought this CD only for the rare tracks not available elsewhere since I already have all their releases, but it's their best compilation with really ALL their hits and all their best tracks, even the less known like "dream on" which is one of my faves. If you want to know this band, this is the perfect album to buy first, but I bet you will get the rest soon as possible.

Harmonious, infectious pop
The Beloved are a little remembered dance/pop duo from the late Eighties and early Nineties. Their biggest hit was the litany of popular culture single 'Hello', whilst the sublime... Read more
