Q Magazine[Morcheeba] return to what they do best. [July 2002, p.117]
-
The band's best record in some time, and for anyone not a purist, it's possibly Morcheeba's best ever.
-
UncutThe entire album is a beauty.... The most adventurous album of their career. [Aug 2002, p.110]
-
Overflows with a confidence not always present on past sets.
-
MixerSome songs do morph into mere mood pieces... but Charango remains a fine return to form. [AUg 2002, p.80]
-
The album finds footing in jazzy downbeat arrangements, and its hip-hop aftertaste gives Charango (and Morcheeba as an entity) a needed one-two punch.
-
Morcheeba make a lovely sound, but they seem to be broadcasting from a very bright and pretty hell.
-
MojoMorcheeba's lightly shaken, hardly stirring sounds will doubtless satisfy fans, band and record company. [Aug 2002, p.104]
-
Entertainment WeeklyTeeters between cool languor and bland lethargy. [6 Sep 2002, p.86]
-
BlenderThey still can't overcome their addiction to sugar. [#9, p.152]
-
Charango reeks of Warner Brothers' attempt to find a viable audience for this waning band.
-
It’s actually Dire Straits gone trip-hop and everyone involved... should be brutally beaten to death with a tray of Ferrero Rocher.

JiriV.Oct 25, 2007The best female voice of the decade (sic!) plus some great easy-listening songs. Highly relaxing album.
