Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
As anyone who's heard their exuberant debut album will tell you, Lemon Jelly are no ordinary chill-out act. Here the eccentric duo present their second full-length outing Lost Horizons, and it's every bit as good as their acclaimed debut, Lemonjelly.ky. Inhabiting a world of almost limitless playfulness, Nick Franglen and Fred Deakin make the sort of brassy, beautiful downtempo music that leaves the listener desperately trying to suppress a goofy grin. You see, Lost Horizons is that rarest of things: a focused, humorous and exciting chill-out album that stands up to repeat listens. Often this kind of tongue-in-cheek chillage can sound dull and contrived (or, worse, sickly and overbearing), but Lost Horizons is anything but tedious. It simply bristles with shimmering, sunny instrumentation (jaunty acoustic guitars, skippy beats, tinkling pianos, oh-so English brass band fanfares… even the odd harp), while quirky, oddball samples lurk round every turn ("Nice Weather For Ducks", for example, is a country-funk shakedown based around a sample from a children’s nursery rhyme). From the percussive space jazz of "Return to Patagonia" to the seductive, sleepy closer "The Curse of Ka’zar", Lost Horizons doesn’t so much glimmer, it positively shines. 2002’s best downtempo album? Almost certainly. --Matt Anniss

CD Description
First 'proper' album from North London duo Nick Franglen and Fred Deakin, better known as Lemon Jelly. A fusion of chilled out beats, breaks, downtempo and indie influenced dance.Features the single 'Space Walk' which was inspired by the lunar landings. 'Lost Horizons' follows on from their 2000 compilation 'Lemonjelly.KY' which featured the duo's first three EP's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sublime, wonderful..., 9 Aug 2006
By J. J. Blackbourn "Sloop Jon B" (Spalding, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this CD as a recommendation and have been unable to stop playing it ever since. Quite simply it is the best chill, electronic, ambient, whatever you want to call it, album I have ever heard. The highlight is Ramblin' Man, a sublime journey of sound which is both thought-provoking and melodic. An absolute classic in every respect.

5.0 out of 5 stars As clearly indicated by almost all reviewers..., 1 Sep 2006
By Hill Walker "Pennine Dweller" (The Pennines of course!) - See all my reviews
... this is pure blissful delight. Absolutely great at parties for making people smile loudly. Can't wait for previous album to arrive having just ordered it on the strength of LH which I only heard a few months ago. Thanks to my friend for introducing these guys to me. SMILE!

4.0 out of 5 stars Slightly bonkers genius, 21 Oct 2002
If you like your music chilled out and slighty bizarre then this could be the stuff for you.

Fred Deakin and Nick Franglen have done it again, if you've heard any of their previous EP '.ky' then you'll have a pretty good idea of whats in store. And if you think you haven't heard it, you probably have. Tracks like 'In The Bath' and 'The Staunton Lick' are used on numerous TV programmes and adverts alike (In The Bath is the Motorola Ad music).

Lost Horizons begins with 'Elements' where we are treated to a typically English voiced gentleman listing elements over a looping acoustic guitar riff and a deep bass line. It doesnt take long for the almost trademark trumpet sound to kick in and you couldnt be anywhere but Lemon Jelly land.

'Space Walk' kicks off with an astronauts communications complete with static, over a simple rippling piano. When it gets going its all very happy and cheery with the repeating sample telling us its 'Beautiful', and an acoustic riff reminiscent of 'Here comes the Sun' by the Beatles.

'Ramblin Man' follows with a gentle walking pace beat. Over this we get another English gentleman telling us how he's 'a ramblin man' and listing place names from Brixton to Rangoon (its better than it sounds!).

'Return to Patagonia' sees a departure from the relaxed vibe, instead we get some jazzy drum, bass and saxophone lines. Dont get me wrong its still laid back but in a different kind of way, it's definately a more up beat track but it works really well, even with the male voice choir they slip in towards the end.

What can I say about 'Nice Weather for Ducks'? If this doesn't raise a smile then there must be something wrong with you! This continues the up beat theme of the last track, its all acoustic guitars a quick beat and the trumpets pop up again for good measure. A real feel good track.

As a complete mood change 'Experiment Number Six' is the darkest thing Lemon Jelly have ever produced. Over a spooky Double Bass line and some horror movie worthy trumpets we get a disturbing account of an experiment and the condition of the subject. Watch out for the nasty ending!

With 'Closer' we are eased back in to a cheerful mood with a Lemon Jelly standard. The familiar acoustic guitar and easy drum beat coupled with a few electronic sounds helps us remember we're still in Lemon Jelly land.

'The Curse of Ka'Zar' rounds of the album with some more jazzy drums and some ethereal male and female vocals. This track touches on quite a big orchestral sound at places but finishes abruptly with the vocal sounds.

In summary then if you are already a fan then you'll love this, if you are a fan of the chillout genre then you could do much worse than a trip to Lemon Jelly land.
