The OFFICIAL Trip Hop Thread

Well... to be honest, I have no idea what it means either, that's why I just mentioned it first. I took it to mean the same thing as you, sort of dope fun ambient music that moves beyond being simple background music but doesn't really fit too well into any other genre I can think of. I don't like simply applying IDM, or EDM, to bands because they are both such broad genres, like you mentioned. I had no clue what to call them genre wise. I definitely think Prefuse 73 is much more hip hop based than BOC though.

On a side note, anyone like Sixtoo? I would definitely consider it trip hop, and if you like the rap/hip hop side note I would highly recommend it. It's also pretty dark and experimental, interesting to listen to. Psyche Intangible is a brilliant album.

I'm a fan...447 plays in my last.fm profile.

I prefer his production work but his early rap albums are fun too.
