Having sold 6 million albums, toured the world over and produced some of the most moving and instantly recognizable tunes throughout the nineties and “noughties” Morcheeba are about to make a massive return with their new album Dive Deep, that is considered by the founding members as an “emotional blueprint” which has restored their faith in music.  Dive Deep features guest vocalists ranging from established names such as acclaimed singer-songwriter Judie Tzuke, to relative newcomers Thomas Dybdahl from Norway, rapper Cool Calm Pete, and Manda, a French singer who contacted the Godfreys via Myspace, admitting it was her dream to sing with Morcheeba. Manda’s dream of collaborating with Morcheeba continues as she will be joining the brothers on tour along with another album vocalist Bradley Burgess.
“Mood shifts within an appealing aqua world-music chill zone. Nice.” – Rokovoko (1/2008)

“Really nice arrangements abound, a few of them harkening back to their Big Calm peak…a pretty good album, against all expectations.” – Entertainment Today (1/2008)

 Lead track Enjoy The Ride features Judie’s soulful voice, which has enchanted Paul since childhood, and One Love Karma sees Cool Calm Pete incorporate the world’s first ever recorded fluteboxing – a human beatbox through a flute. Riverbed and Sleep On It Tonight show off Thomas Dybdahl’s impressive Roy Orbison like vocal range, and together, the collaborations provide an atmosphere of genuine fluidity and free-form exploration.

 

Dive Deep is out on Ultra Records February 19, 2008
