Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Morcheeba served as the template for subsequent "trip-hop" combos, with a line-up that consisted of brothers Ross and Paul Godfrey (both steeped in a musical heritage ranging from Hendrix to roots reggae, from which they cherry-picked at will) and female vocalist Skye Edwards, whose languid vocals melted into the brothers' melange of slide guitars, scratch DJing dub and tablas like cream into coffee. "Who Can You Trust" didn't immediately win over the dance crowd, moving as it did at Mississippi pace through a marijuana haze of sound. The album's standout tracks, however, including "Tape Loop" and "Trigger Hippie", an almost edible concoction of dark funky ingredients, ensured that it became a slow-burning and widely imitated landmark mid-1990s album. --David Stubbs


CD Description

This U.K. trio injects the aesthetics of trip-hop with a lush, languid, easy-listening air for a concoction that demands a deep, comfortable couch and a top-of-the-line set of headphones. The hypnotic, understated delivery of vocalist SkyeEdwards floats over the sweeping synth arrangements, slide guitar, Hammond organ, and subtle technological trickery of brothers Ross and Paul Godfrey. WHO CAN YOU TRUST?, the band's full-length debut, includes the singles "Trigger Hippie","Tape Loop", and "The Music That We Hear".
Atmosphere is paramount for Morcheeba, and TRUST's track list passes through a spectrum of colours. The opener, "Moog Island", sounds like a sleepy siren song. "Post Houmous" lulls with its dub-inflected mid-tempo groove. "End Theme" is glossy retro lounge. But the whole album feels like one beautiful, continuous opium dream. Morcheeba references '30s blues, '90s electronica, '60s psychedelia, and film soundtrack soundscapes, blending these elements into a savoury stream of pure sound quite unlike anything else. WHO CAN YOU TRUST? invites listeners to dive in.

5.0 out of 5 stars This will take you away to a place beyond your imagination., 3 Jun 2000
By A Customer
'Who Can You Trust?' is an amazing achievement by Sky Edwards and co. and by far the better album of the two. It contains some of their best work and the well-known single 'Trigger Hippy'. I bought this album from amazon after hearing the second album, 'Big Calm' and I was pleasantly surprised with its content. I was expecting it not to be as good as the second, as most first albums are but I was wrong. It is wonderful music and it shows you what Morcheeba are all about. You can get a taste of their involvement in the spirtual world and the atmosphere it creates is uncanny. It will relaxe you and help you to meditate on your thoughts and feelings. Morcheeba are the band quite commonly known as the Trigger Hippies. Their music has a mysterious and sometimes a quite exotic feels to it. It is guarenteed to take you away to a magical place, away from your worries while you absorb your mind and soul in the depth of their music.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very dark, almost background., 24 Feb 2003
This album is tricky to review. Its style is almost pure laziness, but the songs are very slickly produced. It is very moody and dark, and the album cover picture perfectly defines the content of the CD (not that it is mostly blank or anything!) The songs seem to blend into each other and create an overall moody 'soundtrack' - it is not so much an album you listen to in a focused, attentive way, more of a background music disc, though this does not do justice to the work put into this album.

The mix of Skye's maple-syrup, slinky, low vocals and the urban touches to the backing put in by the two DJ members of the band, along with the laid back drumming and slidey guitar and the seemingly Asian influences make this a truly unique album.

5.0 out of 5 stars What can I say - brilliant!, 16 Aug 2000
By A Customer
I first heard Tape Loop a few years ago and always liked it, but never really caught on to the whole Morcheeba 'vibe' until last year when I bought Who Can You Trust... it only took one listen and I was hooked. Skye's vocals are both amazing, yet subtle at the same time, almost enchanting - especially on Trigger Hippy. They take me to the paradise place in my head where I can escape the trials and tribulations of everyday life. Thank you for producing one of my favourite albums Morcheeba.

4.0 out of 5 stars Who can you Trust?
Moorceba are very reliable musicians and if you like their output then you will like this album. It is not as good as Big Calm in my book, but very enjoyable nonetheless.

A dark debut that is both memorable and stylish. The trip-hop feel sounds dated now but this was an accomplished debut with a rack of strong songs - "Tape Loop", "Trigger Hippie"... Read more
