Trip-Hop

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I'm sure there are some fans of the genre here. Discuss.

The main reason for me making the thread is that I want to look into the genre further. I've got the well known essentials like Maxinquaye, Dummy, Mezzanine and Endtroducing but I was wondering where else to look. Any help would be much appreciated.

[Nadinus]

Royksopp are pretty good, Air - their latest is Pocket symphony.
Morcheeba I've heard a bit of and I like, and Lamb I haven't but have been recommended.

[munky_magik]

Try Fagan and the Sneaker Pimps.
Maybe also Boards of Canada, Dälek, and Black Cherry/Felt Mountain by Goldfrapp.
Oh, and try UNKLE as well.

[Nadinus]

Boards of Canada? I didn't think they were trip hop 0.o
Oh well same sort of music :/

[munky_magik]

Boards are more sort of chilled/ambient stuff but he may enjoy them anyway.
Dälek are more sort of alternative hip-hop but have the odd trip-hop part.

Just bands that he might like, it's always good to check out new music :)

[NuclearRabbit]

What about Blockhead?

[sgrevs]

Boards of Canada are freakin' awesome, and so is Dalek. Bjork can be pretty trippy-hoppy, and is also brilliant.

[team_racket]

PORTISHEAD. dummy is a gorgeous album. anyone who doesnt have go get. my friend loves trip hop, il ask him for some more reccomendations.

[ATM]

I got an album from Kyle that is really awesome by AiM called Hinterland

Give that one a go.

Also try Nightmares On Wax and Herbaliser.

[Zebra]

Thievery Coorporation have some good stuff.

Also make sure to check out The Private Press by DJ Shadow because it's superior to Endtroducing....

[Catchthe22]

Sneaker Pimps for sure

[Catchthe22]

Sneaker Pimps for sure

nightmares on wax too if they are considered trip-hop

[Kyle]

I got an album from Kyle that is really awesome by AiM called Hinterland

Give that one a go.Word. This album is gorgeous.

Not neccesarily trip hop, but I second Boards of Canada, Dalek and Bjork for good music.

[Surf]

PORTISHEAD. dummy is a gorgeous album. anyone who doesnt have go get. my friend loves trip hop, il ask him for some more reccomendations.

I like Motherless Child, with Tom Jones. And most people have heard Glory Box.

I've only got Shadow's Endtroducing, but I'll have a listen to Private Press.

Leftfield's second album touches on trip hop, as well as CocoRosie.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Royksopp are pretty good, Air - their latest is Pocket symphony.
Morcheeba I've heard a bit of and I like, and Lamb I haven't but have been recommended.
I love Air, they are one of my favourite bands. I've got a Royksopp album but I've yet to give it a proper listen

Boards are more sort of chilled/ambient stuff but he may enjoy them anyway.
I've got Music Has The Right To Children, and it's great.

Thievery Coorporation have some good stuff.

Also make sure to check out The Private Press by DJ Shadow because it's superior to Endtroducing....
Thievery Corporation are really good. The Richest Man In Babylon is the one I have, it's great.

and I like The Private Press but I wouldn't go that far :o

I've only got Shadow's Endtroducing, but I'll have a listen to Private Press.
Live! In Tune And On Time is worth checking out too.

thanks for all the suggestions and stuff, guys and girls.

[niobium]

I've got Music Has The Right To Children, and it's great.

If you haven't gotten anything else by now, get In a Beautiful Place Out in the Country.

[Meatplow]

Trip-hop is a genre i've been meaning to more fully explore. Albums i own -

Massive Attack - Protection, Mezzanine
Portishead - Dummy
Tricky - Maxinquaye

I think its interesting how Protection & Maxinquaye recycle some of the same lyrics, because Tricky left Massive Attack halfway through recording that album or something (can someone confirm this?). I prefer Tricky's stuff, it's so dark.

As for other trip-hop artists, Roots Manuva? Lovage?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Trip_hop_groups

Wikipedia to the rescue, i be following this list i think. :smoke:

[Zebra]

This isn't a trip-hop album but I'd also recommend Flying Lotus' 1983. Musically it sounds like a combination of Aphex Twin and DJ Shadow, interesting stuff that you'd probably enjoy.

[Surf]

Just finished Private Press, very cool. Not sure I'd rank it higher than Endtroducing, but I'll definitely give it another listen.

Downloading 1983 as we speak.

:illegalaccquisition:

[Nadinus]

I just downloaded endtroducing. I like it =]

[Surf]

Get the Deluxe edition. The remixs on the second disc are very cool.
Stem has samples from the film Heat.
And I prefer the gab remix of Midnight In A Perfect World as well

[munky_magik]

Whenever I see the deluxe edition it's always about £20 :(

[Liquid Force]

I don't know much about trip-hop but the only artist I listen to in this genre are the obvious ones
DJ Shadow (although I don't really like his lastest stuff...too much rapping tbh)
Portishead
Massive Attack

[Otherside]

DJ KRUUUUUUUUUUUSHHHH

[niobium]

I heard he was alright, can you recommend an album?

[Tyr]

Besides the ones mentioned, I like Marxman's 33 Revolutions per Minute.

[Surf]

I'm listening to the Flying Lotus album someone reccomended at the moment, and the problem with a few tracks is that they're too short, like two minutes long. Still pretty cool stuff though.

[Otherside]

I heard he was alright, can you recommend an album?

I have code4109 and it's pretty balla tbh

[Nadinus]

This band added me on myspace - usually I don't pay any attention to them but I quite liked it. I think they're called 3000 below. Or it might me 300 Below I can't remember. But yeah, they've got some nice tunes.

[Kyle]

This is my post from a while back. Check it, link still works...

thanks kyle.

Flying Lotus is sick. But yes, some songs aren't that long but they still kick ***.

[Kyle]

thanks kyle.No worries dude, just let me know what you think.

[Sleepy]

Subtle. They aren't really trip-hop, but are a really experimental hip-hop band that's definitely worth checking out.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

No worries dude, just let me know what you think
It's pretty good so far.

[sgrevs]

Every time i try to download that album, it never seems to work:(

I really want to hear it though. I may resort to buying it if I find it.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It's solid. I'd give it 3/5, maybe a 3.5.

[ATM]

Try this album, man.

Just wish they'd let the osngs go on for a bit longer, i could get more into each song then. The longer songs are great though

It's only one person making the music, that's the amazing part.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Marxman's 33 Revolutions Per Minute is my favourite trip hop album. More towards the MCing side, and not particularly great MCing, but the music is so good.

[Tyr]

Finally someone besides me that recognizes the greatness of that album!

I love the celtic influences.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Aye, the guy who did the music is the son of on of Ireland's most successful trad guitarists.

[Tyr]

You don't say?

What's their names?

[Dave de Sylvia]

Oisín Lunny, and his dad is Dónal Lunny. Oisín Lunny had a great dance hit a few years ago but I can't remember the name. It's a smashing song.

[Tyr]

Oisín I've heard about, but not his dad. I'll try to find the dance hit.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

You should upload that once more Dave.

and .zip it.

and send it to me.

I'd love you forever/at least a short while

[Dave de Sylvia]

will do

[Dave de Sylvia]

I dug out my copy of Revolutions earlier, I'll upload it tonight hopefully.

Found the track I was talking about. It's under the alias Firstborn:

Yeah, that's it. It's on the soundtrack to either 24 Hour Party People or Human Traffic, I can never remember which.

[niobium]

I found Air - Moon Safari for $7, so I snagged that \m/

[Apocalyptic Raids]

great bargain. I'm listening to that album atm, it's so good.

[sgrevs]

I nearly bought Mezzanine yesterday for $10 (which is about $7 US) but I didn't because I bought a Beach Boys cd instead (double cd w00t)

[2muchket!]

I got Faithless's greatest hits last year. Not really a fan of compilations but although there are some omissions it's a great gathering of some of the finest trip-hop. Every fan of this genre has to hear God Is A DJ or Mass Destruction.

[Meatplow]

k i'm checking out these two albums uploaded

i want to really explore this genre, where's a good starting point? i know some Massive Attack and Portishead but thats really about it.

[Dave de Sylvia]

Tricky, Massive Attack and Portishead are the big ones.

[2muchket!]

Endtroducing is a must really. No Roots by Faithless is good too, but for an introduction get their greatest hits.

[Meatplow]

cheers will investigate

[sgrevs]

anyone listen?

Up to track 6 at the moment, and totally digging it so far. It reminds me at times of the less dancey Daft Punk stuff, which is always a good thing. thanks a lot.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It reminds me at times of the less dancey Daft Punk stuff, which is always a good thing. thanks a lot
Now I'm interested. I'll probably get it sometime.

[sgrevs]

Well it turned out to be awesome, and definitely got some replay value there, will listen again soon.

[ATM]

No problem, man. I have been listening to that album a ton.

AR, you didn't download it? :angry:

[Apocalyptic Raids]

>_>

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I've listened to the first half of the album and it's really good so far chris

[ATM]

Glad you are liking it :)

[Apocalyptic Raids]

After a few more listens I've come to the conclusion it's pretty awesome.

I'll have to check them out more.

[ATM]

Yea, that's their newest album but they have others.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

yeah I think I'll try get Start A People. It's probably on Oink.

[sgrevs]

This album is owning ATM. Its some seriously good stuff. I still can't rep you though.

[ATM]

I can't wait to see them at the end of this month.

[Zebra]

Start A People has some awesome stuff, I'm anxious to check out the new Black Moth Super Rainbow album.

[(*The Noonward Race*)]

Tricky, Massive Attack and Portishead are the big ones.
Massive Attack and Shadow are trip hop?

i like this genre

Give this a go, guys. Sorry about the folder of music, you just have to get one by one.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Cool man. I'll check it out for sure.

[italic zero]

these guys sound like tortoise, right? what would you say are the differences between the two bands' sound?

[Zebra]

Tortoise have a much more laid-back, organic sound. They're also instrumental.

[ATM]

Hm, they have a very cool electronic sound with female vocals. Not that similar to Tortoise, really.


edit: more similar to Air then anything else

[LF96]

A lot of stuff on Ninja Tune is worth mentioning. Here are the ones I like most:

Amon Tobin (rather agressive, more towards drum 'n bass but awesome nonetheless)
Bonobo
Cinematic Orchestra (very jazzy)
Daedelus
Skalpel

Even more awesome is the fact that I will be seeing the first three of those at Dour festival this year.

[ATM]

Daedelus is so good, I love Denies the Days Demise.

[Kyle]

Finally managed to get hold of the latest Aim album. It's just more of th same from Hinterland really, but there are some great lazy beats and it's a great album for the summer.

Bump

Anyone heard of Mr Scruff? Can't be bothered to read the rest of the thread, but I'll upload some anyway:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/c599vw

Mr Scruff - Keep It Solid Steel

"This first CD, of a four part series, covers in its 74 minutes bouncy reggae, classic hip hop, deep soul, rare funk, dancefloor jazz, heavy beats and leftfield electronic nuggets."

[ATM]

Yea, I've got that. I can't say I'm really a fan, it just didn't click with me.

[Kyle]

Mr Scruff was really great when I saw him live, 5 hour set ftw.

Trouser Jazz is great too.

[sgrevs]

5 hour set ftw.



um what

[Kyle]

Yeah that's how long he plays for. No support, no waiting, you just walk in the door and he's there doing his stuff.

It takes a while for numbers to build up and people to get into it, but it's still a totally awesome night out.

[Jaded]

Thanks for that Mr. Scuff upload. I've been diggin on that a lot.

[Surf]

No worries, I'll upload another one of his if anyone wants

Would you mind uploading it again? I liked Hinterland you also had uploaded.

[Kyle]

Sorry dude, I'd love to but this computer won't let me upload anything.

I'm sure ATM or somebody else who downloaded it will re-up it for you if they see this though.

[NuclearRabbit]

Awwwwright. Damnit, still.

[Turtle Soup]

i want some trip hop with some good beat

aim is okay but not enough beat tbh

[niobium]

What would be a good Aim album to start with?

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Kyle posted Hinterland earlier in the thread you could start with that.

[niobium]

Ah, thanks for that, and Kyle.

Also thanks for the Marxman I found earlier in the thread.

[Surf]

Can't be bothered to read through the thread again, but has anyone mentioned Dr Octagon?

Its like the american reaction to the bristol trip hop scene, even released on a british trip hop label.

And I think UNKLE have already been mentioned, but I picked up an album the other day, good stuff.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

Can't be bothered to read through the thread again, but has anyone mentioned Dr Octagon?
I've been meaning to check out Dr. Octagonecologyst for so long.

Yeah, there it is if anyone wants to check it out

[niobium]

I've been meaning to check out Dr. Octagonecologyst for so long.

Please do, it killed me upon first listen.

[Turtle Soup]

A.P.E. is pretty good

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

No one else thinks I Monster is trip hop, but at times, they're bristol as ****.

Agree with me. I can provide links if people don't believe me.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

I've got an album by them and I didn't really hear it but then again I've only listened to like once.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Is it Neveroddoreven?

Oh and I'm finally enjoying some Black Moth Super Rainbow. The Vocoded vox are grating on my nerves after the third song, but musically, it's great. Amazing mix.

Also, any Four Tet fans? Getting high and enjoying them is basically the most euphoric thing EVAR. :p

[Lunch]

Only beaten by boomin and listening to Four Tet

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Yeah so I'm checking out this Hinterland album right now, it's allright. Nothing mindblowing, but some pretty solid stuff.

[ATM]

Pfft the vocals are part of what makes BMSR great, Jake.

[Kyle]

ooh I love Four Tet. Been digging their Remixes album quite a lot recently, the madvillain tracks are soo good.

Aim is just solid trip hop I think, not exactly the cream of the genre but for the most part consistently decent.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

They'll probably grow on me Chris, but for now it's too much psychedelica to absorb at once! :p


And the only Four Tet I have is Rounds, but as I said, it's pretty amazing.

[ATM]

Rounds is an awesome album.

From Wiki:

Four Tet is the name used by Kieran Hebden for his electronic music-oriented solo efforts to differentiate from his work with post-rock band Fridge.



Hm, I want to hear Fridge.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

BMSR's vocals grated on me during my first listens. I don't mind them at all now, and sometimes it works fantastically.

Is it Neveroddoreven?
yeah

[Kyle]

Definately check out Fridge ATM, they're brilliant.

new album: http://www.mediafire.com/?3jy1jmvy2jr

I Monster - neveroddoreven

It's got elements of bristol-style trip hop, but also the Air breed of trip hop, some psychedelia, and tons of catchiness. It's basically awesome pop music.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Oh hey, what about the Fight Club OST? Pretty good (and slightly incoherent as OST's often are) music. It's by a duo that call themselves The Dust Brothers. It's got some pretty awesome vignettes that sort of fit the trip hop mold in a way.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

It's by a duo that call themselves The Dust Brothers.
I'm know they produced Paul's Boutique but I'm not sure what else they've done.

what exactly were you expecting out of it

i dont know. when i heard it was an instrumental i got pretty excited and i heard some good things about it

meh

[Kyle]

I love the Beastie Boys, but the idea of making an all instrumental album was ridiculous. I dig some of the old instrumental stuff they did but only as a way of breaking up an album or changing the mood, not for a whole bloody album.

[Eliminator]

wel really youre a massive faggot
so thats understandable

[ATM]

It doesn't have much direction. I bet I'll like it more this summer after seeing them do it live :-D

Fight Club soundtrack is awesome. The Dust Brothers also did the Seven soundtrack, remixing closer for the title sequence (great title sequence that it is)

I can upload the basic album, but if anyone has the special edition some of the remixes are really good.

[thunderzstruck]

wel really youre a massive faggot
so thats understandable

Anyone listen to Pantha Du Prince? It's probably not Trip Hop but if you dig the stuff mentioned in here there's a good chance you'll like it.

I'm interested.

I'll check that shi' out and tell you how good it is Kyle.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Oh yeah, this stuff is neat so far. gg Kyle.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Never mind, that album is pretty weak tbh. Gets really samey.

[thunderzstruck]

so the song 'Walking Home Through The Park' by aim is reallyreally amazing i think

[Kyle]

Never mind, that album is pretty weak tbh. Gets really samey.I dunno man, it's not all at the same tempo as the first few tracks but there's loads of interesting sounds going on in it. I think it's a real headphones album though, if you want the most out of it background music doesn't really cut it.

I successfully turned Sputnik on to Aim, I'm proud of myself, haha.

[thunderzstruck]

I successfully turned Sputnik on to Aim, I'm proud of myself, haha.

yeah theyre really good
mhmm

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

K I'll keep trying with the Pantha Du Prince.

And Good Disease is my favorite Aim song, gets me in the mood. :naughty:

[Surf]

Yeah, I agree with the aim=solid trip hop thing. A few songs stand out every now and again. Can't think of any names at the moment though.

Haven't heard the new beastie boys, but its getting pretty slated so I'm not really in a rush.

[thunderzstruck]

anyone listen to ulrich schnauss?
His newest album "Goodbye" is definitely living up to expectations :)

[Tyr]

I have his A Strangely Isolated Place. How does Goodbye compare to it?

[Kyle]

Never heard him, what's it like?

[thunderzstruck]

It's not really triphop but I thought maybe youd guys like him/heard of him.
It's electronic pop in a way, I'm not good with genres. I'll put one of his songs on putfile and if you guys like him I'll upload his new album "Goodbye"

Ulrich Schnauss- Goodbye
http://media.putfile.com/Goodbye--Ulrich-Schnauss

[thunderzstruck]

and his newest album is turning to be really good. I've only listened to it once but it has even more layers and atmosphere than his others (looks to be my favourite of his so far)

[Kyle]

It's quite nice, I could go for some more if you don't mind uploading the new one?

[La Revolucion]

Goodbye is bad. A Strangely Isolated Place is great. Far Away Trains Passing By is good too. That's all you need to know about Ulrich Schnauss.

[thunderzstruck]

ill upload his newest and strangely isolated place (ive hardly listened to the new one)

[thunderzstruck]

Ulrich Schnauss- A Strangely Isolated Place
http://www.mediafire.com/?eiljcztenqt

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Is Schnauss house?

Oh well, I'm downloading it either way.

[thunderzstruck]

so do you like it?

[La Revolucion]

Is Schnauss house?
Nah he's sort of ambient shoegaze type stuff.

[dub sean]

I just got DJ Shadow's Entroducing and I love it. I'm glad I read this thread.

[irishmanshibby]

the same thing happened with mw and Entroducing.. im still tryin to branch out onto others suggested in here though

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I was never enamored with Endtroducing. it seems like basically everyone else who's heard it enjoyed the living heck out of it. I feel so left out!

[La Revolucion]

Yeah it's OK. There's a couple real standouts like Stem/Long Stem and the second track that I can't remember the name of.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Building Steam from a Grain of Salt or something, yeah it's good. Midnight in a Perfect World is another good one. It's a shame that The Number song is on there though, it's hardly tolerable.

The Number Song is awesome

[thunderzstruck]

Building Steam from a Grain of Salt or something, yeah it's good. Midnight in a Perfect World is another good one. It's a shame that The Number song is on there though, it's hardly tolerable.

i love that song
i never liked that album until i got stoned to it though, especially the number song

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Actually that was the one time I felt in tune with the album.

Tends to happen a lot. I guess DJ Shadow fans are just more stoned than I, fo figure.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Oh damn, found a pretty good band that touches on dream pop, jungle, and trip hop.

Boom Bip and Doseone - Circle

Keep in mind, it's quite odd.

[thunderzstruck]

Boom Bip and Doseone - Circle

Keep in mind, it's quite odd.Both artists are tight, I've had this collab for quite a while but never got around to listening to it. Which is strange because I usually jump all over anything Anticon related.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I sort of lost interest about half way through the album. it's very disjointed, but there are definitley some gold moments. Reminded me of a film soundtrack in the way that each musical idea was so seperated from the last and also in the lack of development of each idea.

But still enjoyable.

[Happymeal]

I'm pretty pumped for Method Man & Redman - Blackout 2.


edit: haha I thought this was the rap/hip-hop thread

[La Revolucion]

Doseone gets so obnoxious after a little while in all of his projects other than Subtle.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

If he's the emcee, then I'll agree, even without hearing Subtle. :p

[pixiesfanyo]

I like Doseone.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

a true runner, I must say

The only Anticon album that blew me away was Alias & Ehren's Lillian.

One of Lillian's most important features is its use of space. Its lush soundscapes benefit as much from densely-populated time signatures as they do from the moments of calculated hesitation. Ehren’s superbly played clarinet shines most on “Miso Stomp,” where a spaciously played riff accompanies Alias’ jagged synth line. Perhaps Ehren’s best contribution to the record is his confidence; his instrumentation evokes the poise of a seasoned musician who eschews the spotlight of a solo to explore the stream of consciousness that is Alias' intricate compositional style.


The record moves like an experimental film score, with seemingly motionless drones in spots complementing driving, crunchy beats at other times. Alias’ drum programming nods in the direction of DJ Signify and DJ Krush – both experts in the field – the way dusty kicks and dirty snares scatter towards analog cohesion. The title track’s heavily delayed beeps and clicks speckle in and out of focus while Ehren’s saxophone smoothes out the fuzz, pulling the track’s elements in tighter with a contemplative hand.

Have you heard Elephant Eyelash by Why? That's one of my favorite Hip Hop cd's.

[ATM]

Yea, I'm not really big on Why?

I should upload Lillian for you guys. It really is fantastic.

Hey everyone. I was on Myspace the other day and came across an amazing artist from Philadelphia, named Natalie Walker. I just love her voice – so soothing. Great down-tempo pop electronica. She has a very unique sound…it reminds me of The Sneak Pimps and Portishead a little... Check out her song Crush…

I just got some Prefuse 73. Not bad.

[rustysurf84]

Anyone got any information about a new Shadow project? I wish that he would go back to the Private Press style, or even Endtroducing..., but I'm not optimistic =/

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

i'm seeing Black Moth Super Rainbow in like a month. they open for Flaming Lips, so that should be an absolutely astonishing display.

[Apocalyptic Raids]

well i have always been under the impression (through reviews and interviews etc) that Shadow is really against revisiting musical territory, and he's more about progressing as an artist, so I'd take what you said with a grain of salt tbh

and sry Jono.

[ImInHysteria]

I find that trip hop is good once in a while and not all the time, some favorites is DJ Shadow feat. Mos Def - Six Days and Day One - Bedroom Dancing. It's like laid-back fusion of techno/trance and a little bit of rock influence with really great drumming

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Anyone heard Tycho?

Oaklandazulasylum and Almost Live From Annas Cabin are better.

I remember this thread.

Listen, it's not Trip Hop at all, but you guys will probably dig.

[Neoteric]

[The Door Mouse]

New Prefuse 73 is pretty good.

[Ian Hand]

Just heard Massive Attack's score for the Jet Li film 'Unleashed' - Totally awesome

DFSHGSDFHDf!!! I'm seeing DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist TOGETHER live next month, it's gonna ****ing blow my mind. Cut is probably one of THE best scratchers I've ever heard, anyone whose a fan of Shadow should check him out, as well as RJD2.

[Imdrunksowhat]

Kid Koala is rad

[thunderzstruck]

bought RJD2's first album Deadringer at a local record shop the other day. Very good

[ATM]

Deadringer is awesome.
