Henry Binns and Sam Hardaker are the British based downtempo duo Zero 7.

Prior to the release of their first album Simple Things under the name Zero 7, Binns and Hardaker had been making themselves an integral part of the music scene by doing remixes for world renown artists such as Radiohead, Lenny Kravitz, Sneaker Pimps and Lampchop.

Now with the release of their 4th studio album in September of 2009, Yeah Ghost, the Grammy-Award winning duo are taking things back to basics. Featuring jazz and soul singer Eska Mtungwazi, folk artist Martha Tilston, long time collaborator Rowdy Superstar, along with the vocal stylings of band member Binns, this album incorporates a more upbeat and approachable sound.

You can catch them in the New York part of their US-Tour on November 27 at Terminal 5.




Originally coaxed to Brooklyn by fellow party-throwers, CassetteNYC and Percussionlab, Body Language quickly found a welcome soapbox from which they could yell loud and clear. Armed with synths, vocoder, glockenspiel, percussion, and three graceful voices, Body Language found themselves in demand at local events and parties. That demand extended beyond their own entity as a band, and they appeared as a live back up to Theophilus London dressed as 'the Lovers'. Body Language also served as production collaborators with Passion Pit for the inception of their debut LP, Manners. Body Language cut their teeth in the remix department, appearing on Passion Pit's “Chunk of Change” EP with a shimmering rendition of Sleepyhead (Landau Wake Up Mix) and Machinedrum's “Late Night Operation” EP featuring Theophilus London. Seeking to up the ante on their 2008 performances, the trio joined forces with Mickey Factz/T. London backing drummer, Ian Chang, during the turn of this year. The resulting quartet made what seemed already a locomotive electronic outfit into a sonic freight train of a crossover indie act.
