The OFFICIAL Trip Hop Thread

jackhammer · 09-03-2009, 02:47 PM

I did a search and couldn't find anything similar but if there is you know what to do!

The aim of the thread is to get some of the more unknown bands up in here along with vids and recommendations to one of my favourite genres. I will also do a brief history of the genre along with an intro compilation.

Welcome back Lee

I've kinda drifted away from trip-hop ever since I started getting into breakbeat and progressive house of late, so I could do with some recs. So, basically, I'll be keeping an eye on this one.

Nice one

i've gotten into Tricky and Massive Attack lately so this thread should be useful.

What ever you do, regardless of your goals in life, make time and take time to search out this album:

DJ Wally - The Stoned Ranger Rydes Again

It's mostly trip-hop, late 90's back when it was going strong.
DJ Wally has since changed his name to DJ Wally Pish Posh and produces mostly underground hiphop now, so the Ranger album really is one of a kind for him.

It's going to be hard to find on a download service. Generally you're lucky if you find a new unopened copy being sold anywhere. Anyway, that was last time I checked. If you get the album DL'd from somewhere, please up it for me. Someone stole that CD from me in 99' and it has been pretty much irreplaceable so far.

Never heard of this and a search provided nothing

This is awesome! I only know a few very 'mainstream' trip-hop artists (like Portishead etc) but it's a genre I would really love to learn more about. Look forward to the intro comp and the rest of this thread!

It's about time,

I like this. However my idea of trip-hop is different from what many consider to be trip-hop. So I'll let you guys roll with it. Maybe I can finally check out some of this trip-hop.

I'm kinda' the same way, my definition spills over into dub-step and other random places as well.

mr dave · 09-03-2009, 07:49 PM

do you want to stick to proper 'trip hop' or are you cool with branching out into the greater 'downbeat' style that grew from it?

either way i'm looking forward to this compilation
