I really dig Massive Attack.

Also, The Chemical Brothers are mind BLOWING. in all ways, even though they're more something to go in the electronic thread.

[E-Money]

DJ mother fucking Shadow......is amazing.  Not really trip hop but he has some similar styles.  Entroducing....is my favorite album of the 90's

[Starz]

Saltillo - Ganglion is amazing. Discovered it a few years ago and fell in love with it. I'm sure a lot of you have or know about this Four Tet album. I guess it fits in with this thread...Amazing.

Four Tet - Rounds

2. She Moves She
3. First Thing

besides the obvious, massive attack

i guess, a whisper in the noise. can kind of fit into this category

check out their album, through the ides of march

here is a song from that album.

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

[defTHE1s]

Portishead is on this category?
If yes, it would be much appreciated if someone post links to their albums..

[alvarezbassist17]

thanks for the link to thievery corp, i've always dug them and that new cd kinda slipped under my radar i guess.  diggin it so far though

[ben]

[defTHE1s]

theres a new portishead track out. not really my cup of tear, but definitely not bad.

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

Why havent I seen this thread. Trip Hop makes about 50 per cent of all music I listen to nowadays.
I shall try Saltillo and Four Tet in a couple of days.

Some great stuff mantioned here so far, Thievery Corporation, and DJ Shadow, excellent!

Why dont you Trip Hop/Downtempo lovers go get some Wax Tailor, Bonobo, Esthero, Hooverphonic or even Nightmares on Wax. Those should get your juices flowing.

Cool Stuff, cool thread.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Tricky.. One of the true OG's and real innovators in this style of music. He pretty much helped make the blueprint for Trip Hop with Massive Attack, and his first solo album, before it was even called Trip Hop..

Maxinquaye - 1995:

Or check out his latest one:

Knowle West Boy - 2008:

[godin]

Air are down tempo? no??

Moon Safari and Talkie Walkie are both classics

[ben]

Yea Moon Safari is an all-time classic.

So apparently Massive Attack plans on releasing an EP in May - mostly consisting of songs that didn't make Heligoland and potentially some new tracks as well.

great album!

[deftoner664]

Wow, not too far into this thread and i've discovered some great sounds... I'm pretty much a noob to most Trip-hop influenced artist, and from what I gather Massive attack is the foundation for this genre. For a first timer what are the best albums from M.A. that gives a well rounded perspective to what they have to offer? Thanks to everyone who introduced the preceeding artists
