A long way from the atmospheric downtempo of Zero 7’s debut, Yeah Ghost is an album of spry, kinetic, shape-shifting pop backed by a crack rhythm section and fleshed out with shimmering synths and effects. Eska Mtungwazi’s joyous vocals on the bluesy, upbeat “Mr McGee” underscore their playful spirit; the lithe bass/drums/guitar interplay of “Everything Up (Zizou)” suggests dance music recast for a stripped-down rock band. Electronic fans shouldn’t fret: The shimmering “Ghost Symbol” goes deep into sumptuous synths and delicate glitch rhythms.
