Alpha recruited singers Wendy Stubbs, Martin Bernard, Helen White and Kelvin Swaby now of The Heavy to add vocals to their downtempo, beat-driven compositions of the late 1990s, which led to them being included in the category of "Post Trip-Hop". "ComeFromHeaven", their debut LP was the first release on Massive Attack's Melankolic label in 1997. They are currently on Don't Touch Recordings, a label they founded and have released a further eight albums to date including the very exciting collaboration with Horace Andy ' Two Phazed People' which is getting outstanding reviews. check it all here www.alphaheaven.com New Alpha album The Eleventh Trip due for release in 2012. ...show less
