Angel

About Angel

Angel, the first track on the album Mezzanine is a highly emotional trip-hop tune featuring Horace Andy's vocals. The song evokes dark and sinister cries from the slow and repetitive percussion and then strikes a distressed melody with an electric guitar drowning through the sonic atmosphere of the piece. The song has been featured in the movies "Snatch" (2000), "Flight of the Phoenix" (2004) and several others as well as TV series such as "The West Wing", "Person of Interest" "Smallville" And Verdades secretas (2015) .
