"Angel" is a song by English musician Goldie released in 1995 as second single from his debut album Timeless. It reached number 41 on the UK Singles Chart on 9 September 1995.[1] The song features vocals from Goldie's frequent collaborator Diane Charlemagne.[2] While "Angel" uses time stretching sample technique and soul vocals, its remixed version "Saint Angel" is more hardcore techno-influenced. It was released both on "Angel" single and album Timeless.
Critical reception[]
Music & Media commented, "Now that jungle has taken the clubs and charts by storm, British artist Goldie has re-released 1993's Angel, a slow hypnotic track featuring singer Diane Charlemagne (Urban Cookie Collective)."[3] Music Week rated it three out of five, adding, "In the same vein as Inner City Life, this is not the most commercial jungle track around, but is mellow enough to appeal to beginners. An authentic introduction to the genre and a booster for Goldie's recently-released debut album Timeless."[4]
