ALPHA & OMEGA (UK) (http://www.alphaandomega.co.uk/)
Much has changed since Alpha & Omega released their debut album Daniel In The Lions' Den in 1990.
Alpha and Omega, have helped forge a new genre of uniquely British roots-based music, with
Massive Attack, trip-hop and jungle at one end of the spectrum, and rave music, On-U Sound and
ambient acts like The Orb at the other.
In between are the heady sounds of Alpha & Omega themselves whose music itself helps define new
territory. Slipping as easily into the home hi-fi as the ultimate 'chilled', meditational dub, or
to be heard thundering out of the more orthodox reggae sound-systems like the mighty Jah Shaka,
whose enduring support has made Alpha & Omega firm favourites among the roots fraternity.
A&O's often eerie use of keyboards, melodica and studio effects lends their music a subtlety
rarely encountered in contemporary music. Within these mesmerising grooves lies a wordless
message that's every bit as urgent and compelling as the one passed down by their Jamaican reggae
mentors.
Whilst the sounds Alpha & Omega produce could accurately be described as 'restless, raw and
unapologetic' a few years back, there's an additional flair and strength of purpose to what
they're doing now.
The driving force behind their heavy-duty rhythms is unquenchable and they should at last begin
to reap the wider recognition due to them.. John Masouri
