I'm primarily drawn to beat-driven electronic music (think Crystal Method and Fluke) and Orbital, so when I recently rediscovered Massive Attack (had Mezzanine in collection but never really listened to it) some months ago I started on a crusade for trip-hop. My CD collection is pretty limited, not that I don't have $$$ or anything, just that I'm extremely particular when it comes to music (and no one likes wasting money on crap CDs either). Anyway for the past several weeks I've been looking into trip-hop and discovered some artists and CDs, maybe some of you have heard about them, maybe not, but I declare this thread the official Head-Fi Trip-Hop/Electronic thread!
So if anyone wants to comment on anything in this list, feel free, or post your own additions! Trip-hop preferred but electronica is welcome too!
Unknowns: (would like some comments)
- Air
- Airlock - Drystar
- Cirrus (TCM soundalike?)
- Faithless - Sunday 8 PM SE
- Futureshock (another TCM soundalike?)
- Halou - Wiser (ordered it today based on the reviews I've read!)
- Laika - Sounds of the Satellites (also ordered today! is it good too?)
- Lamb
- Minus 8
- Mono - Formica Blues
- Morcheeba - Charango (or are other CDs better?)
- Nightmares on Wax
- Royksopp
- Sneaker Pimps - Becoming X
- Spylab - This Utopia (planning to get it though, sounds similar to Massive Attack)
- Thievery Corporation - Mirror Conspiracy
- Tosca
- Zero 7
