The Late Night Tales series has been running for over five years, during which time it has firmly established itself as the connoisseur’s choice of mix CD. Now reaching the twentieth in the series, Late Night Tales have called back Groove Armada, compilers of the biggest selling LNT to date, to celebrate this milestone release.
Much more than just a collection of songs, Groove Armada have painstakingly reedited and re-sequenced many of the tracks here to create a seamless mix that flows smoothly despite the eclectic selection of tracks, which one might even dare to call ‘Balearic’! With the choice of artists moving between the classic (Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Depeche Mode, The Cure) to the current (Midlake, Joakim, Peter, Bjorn and John), Groove Armada display all the musical authority and passion that typifies the Late Night Tales series.
The (always) exclusive cover version is a great take on the classic ‘Are Friends Electric?’ by Gary Newman.This twentieth release is quite possibly the best Late Night Tales yet, with the art of the mixtape in good hands.
