I was just perusing the Music Hall, and I've noticed that for a stoners forum, trip hop is not represented as well as I would have assumed. So do we have any other Portishead, Mandalay, Air, Massive Attack, ect. fans on here?
when it comes to trip hop, dj shadow is my fav...bar none. Lets see, there's organ donor, building steam with a grain of salt , high noon, what does your soul look like part 3, midnight in a perfect world, lonely soul, walkie talkie, etc. i can just listen to his stuff and relax, top notch. watch this video stoned...itll blow your mind. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNtTBcBmKzw
Oh fuck yes: Portishead Amon Tobin Cut Chemist DJ Shadow The Gorillaz Lamb Massive Attack Morcheeba Sneaker Pimps Thievery Corporation U.N.K.L.E. I got more too. Peace Dannk!...
I gotta throw a song out there too. If you can, find Fat Ass Joint - Amon Tobin. Great smoking song. Peace Dannk!...
Nice. Good to see some representation I've got a DJ shadow DVD around here somewhere. It's quite sick. My big faves are; Portishead Air Mandalay Massive Attack Lamb Hooverphonic Zero 7 Goldfrapp Kid Loco Sneaker Pimps Nightmares on Wax Morcheeba
Triphop? Not familiar with the term. If you could personify this movement with one song (hopefully readily available for "purchase" from the limewire store) post it so I can check it out
Hmm, kind of hard to boil down into one song... BUT if I had to do it, I'd say Biscuit- Portishead would be a good place to start.
Some more: Portishead - Time Has Come feat. DJ Shadow Portishead - Roads (this is the song that got me into Trip-Hop) Portishead - Linger feat. PJ Harvey DJ Shadow - Building Steam With a Grain Of Salt DJ Shadow - Midnight In A Perfect World Almost anything by Amon Tobin (this guy did the music for Splinter Cell if you've played it) Peace Dannk!...
More: Lamb - I Cry The Gorillaz - Fire Coming Out Of A Monkeys Head Massive Attack - Karma Coma Thievery Corporation - The Supreme Illusion feat. Gunjan Thievery Corporation - Warning Shots feat. Sleepy Wonder & Gunjan U.N.K.L.E. - UNKLE U.N.K.L.E. - Rabbit In Your Headlights Zero 7 - Look Up Peace Dannk!...
For some reason, I the limewire store took a long time to purchase, so I only got through the one song. My review: Interesting. I'm not too big on the scratching, but everything else was pretty chill. I'll definately be checking out some of these other songs before I make a decision. Thanks!
Yeah, the scratching isn't in alot of trip hop. You might like something like Insensible by Mandalay better. Just keep sampling from the limeware store, its some of the most chill music you will ever listen to. And nice picks Daank!
Thanks, Dankk,for such great recommendations!!! I havent heard sneaker pimps before, or Amon Tobin either.. awesome shit
Portishead Goldfrapp Hooverphonic Sneaker Pimps Bjork Hungry Lucy and Frou Frou These are the trip-hop bands I like.
