Most known for the classic “Groove Is In The Heart,” Deee-Lite were never about pop hits, but to move the floor, mind and heart by taking one on a full album journey. This collection pulls together 20 favorites from all three of their albums ( from 1990-1993) where they mix analogue with tech, 60’s beatnik with futuristic electronic, funk and jazz with breakbeat and house, a sense of humor with a deeper message . This dancefloor diversity is shown in tracks like “Good Beat” , “What Is Love?” , “Power of Love,” \"Apple Juice Kissing,\" and \"Somebody.\" They carried an uplifting message and their live shows were just as exciting, often featuring a full band and frequent guests like Bootsy Collins and Maceo Parker. Deee-Lite packed out theatres and festivals around the world. Now available on Purple \u0026amp; Orange Vinyl for the first time, this release is a fun look back at a group that made dance music bigger, weirder, and way more colorful.
