Our Take

Zero: A Martin Hannett Story is a mesmerising journey through the mind of the legendary producer, known for his innovative approach to sound. Hannett's signature style shines through in this compilation of tracks from various artists, creating a sonic landscape that is at once familiar and strange.

The album opens with Joy Division's haunting "Atmosphere," setting the tone for what's to come. The juxtaposition of dark, brooding tracks like The Durutti Column's "The Missing Boy" with more upbeat numbers like John Cooper Clarke's "I Don't Want to Be Nice" keeps the listener on their toes.

Hannett's production expertise is on full display here, with each track expertly crafted to showcase the unique talents of the artists involved. From the ethereal vocals of Nico on "Procession" to the jangly guitars of The Stone Roses on "I Wanna Be Adored," every song is a testament to Hannett's genius.

Throughout Zero, there is a sense of experimentation and risk-taking that is sorely lacking in today's music industry. Hannett was unafraid to push boundaries and try new things, and that fearless approach is evident in every note of this compilation.

In conclusion, Zero: A Martin Hannett Story is a must-listen for any music aficionado looking to delve into the mind of one of the industry's true visionaries. It's a wild ride from start to finish, and one that is sure to leave a lasting impression on all who dare to take the journey.
