Morcheeba is a British band that emerged from the mid-90s trip-hop scene, noted for their mellow, down-tempo grooves and the soulful vocals of lead singer Skye Edwards. Formed in 1995 by the Godfrey brothers, Paul and Ross, Morcheeba quickly became a staple of the genre alongside other contemporaries like Massive Attack and Portishead. With Edwards' departure in 2003 and her return in 2010, the band's lineup has fluctuated, yet they've consistently produced music with a signature blend of electronica, pop, and blues influences.

The essence of Morcheeba's sound has always been defined by their innovative fusion of electronic beats with traditional and world music elements, as well as their collaborative spirit, often featuring guest musicians from various backgrounds. Throughout their career, they have released a series of critically acclaimed albums, including their 1996 debut "Who Can You Trust?" and the hit-laden "Big Calm" in 1998. Their more recent work highlights the band's enduring appeal and their willingness to adapt and explore new musical territories, as evidenced by remixes of their core tracks by a diverse group of artists, ensuring that Morcheeba's lush soundscapes continue to enchant a new generation of listeners.
