After putting on an excellent show on the jazz stage at Glastonbury, Groove Armada's Tom and Andy offer a breathtaking journey of jazz 'n' beats with 'At The River'. It's very downtempo but that doesn't detract from it's catchy impact. The main mix - championed as Zoe Ball's record of the week - is a lazy groove with a haunting trumpet line and that outstanding vocal sample: "If you're fond of sand dunes and salty air/Quaint little villages here and there". It's evocative of a lazy day by the seaside and is sure to be huge. MW
