Signing to China Records at the height of the UK's trip-hop boom, Morcheeba generated buzz with 1996's cult debut Who Can You Trust?, home to Trigger Hippie. The group experienced their greatest commercial success with the sequel, Big Calm, which veered into dub-reggae, blues and folk.

In the 2000s, Morcheeba consolidated a mainstream profile with Fragments Of Freedom, which spawned their biggest hit in Rome Wasn't Built In A Day. Their latest album, Blackest Blue, saw the duo push their sound to new heights.
