Noted as the first signings to Massive Attack's label Melankolic back in 1997, Alpha are still producing gentle but dark trip-pop tracks that sound like Ivy merged with Supreme Beings Of Leisure. Sultry vocals and smooth and trippy melodies seem to always be a winning combo
The list of their admirers looks like a Who’s Who of the international pop scene : David Bowie, Radiohead, Pulp, or Madonna (Rolling Stone Tope 10 years end list!)all rave about Alpha. Alpha were the first signings to Massive Attack's label Melankolic back in 1997. They released their critically acclaimed debut album 'Come From Heaven', followed by 'The Impossible Thrill'. Alpha have been constantly busy in the past 10 years having released three instrumental albums 'Lost In the garden of clouds part 1 and 2, Made In Space, 'Stargazing' and last year 'Without Some Help'. This is essentially Alpha''s best remixes but also included brand new Horace Andy and Alpha tracks. But our interest in the moment is to get as much exposure as possible for their fourth vocal album 'The Sky Is Mine' its absolutely stunning. It was written by both Corin Dingley and Wendy Stubbs who also provides the vocals. 2007 Alpha have been booked to play The Seine Festival in Paris on the 25th August alongside the likes of Bjork.
