Corin Dingley and Andy Jenks formed Alpha after working together on a couple projects. The duo are inspired by film soundtracks and the songwriting of Jimmy Webb with the same intensity that Massive Attack give to hip-hop and dub. Both collectives, however, are from Bristol and recruit vocalists to bring their downtempo compositions to life. Signed to Massive Attack's Melankolic label, they released their debut album, Come from Heaven, in 1997, which was followed by 2001's The Impossible Thrill. 2003's Stargazing was praised by Q and The Sunday Times for its meticulous production and lush soundscapes. A handful of albums was released throughout the remainder of the decade, including 2007's The Sky Is Mine. ~ John Bush
