180g Vinyl Reissue of 1998 Release!
Big Calm is the second album by Morcheeba, released in 1998. The tip-hop album features vocals by Skye Edwards.
"Morcheeba expanded their sonic palette on their second album, Big Calm. Trip-hop and dance rhythms remain, but the trio has spent more time writing songs, crafting an album where pop, lounge, film soundtracks, reggae, jazz, and electronica all peacefully coexist. Consequently, Big Calm is a stylistic tour de force, evidence that Morcheeba have turned into a mature, sophisticated group with impeccable taste...the trio is so musically adept, and Skye Edwards' voice is so enchanting, that Big Calm become irresistible in its own way." -Stephen Thomas Erlewine, allmusic.com
"...Big Calm is even more song-oriented than its debut...All these songs reveal Morcheeba's impressive versatility, stressing songwriting over DJing, and thus ensuring its continued creative success beyond passing fads." -AV Club, March 2002
