Hooverphonic is a band out of Belgium that frequently is labeled as Trip-Hop or within that vein. I think most of their music is indescribable. Their first lead vocalist left the group, so they found a new one before the second album and she has continued with them for more than 10 years, but is now seeking a solo career.
Eden is a song that I play on occasion that makes people stop in their tracks. Someone always comes to the DJ booth to ask me what the name of the band is and sometimes they write it down and insist that I spell it out so they can find out more about them.
The melody and bass sounds are hypnotic on their own, but combined with Geike Arnaert’s vocals, the song becomes something powerful in its subtlety.
