This one's cool too:

That's cool at least she has a steady income to fund her music career if it doesn't get too big.

My favorite song from her so far is That Other Girl



That Damaged Girl is suppose to be a more upbeat version, I really want to like it but the A$AP Ferg parts ruin it for me.

Another thing, I know I'm breaking script here but Submotion Orchestra is mad hot. This is an oldie; Fragments, 1969, Alium, and Colour Theory are real good too. They're more jazz than dubstep so:

Since you started this thread, I've been pretty much exclusively listening to this kind of music. lol There's just so much good stuff out there. 10 years ago I would have never listened to these styles so much (even in the 90s when trip-hop was becoming well known I didn't really listen to it a lot). It's amazing how much one's musical tastes can change over the years!

Submotion Orchestra stills falls under some of the related genres I listed and their music is great and certainly has the feel of some trip hop elements! I just listened to the Fragments album and I'm now in love with group. I'm thinking about posting some Trip Rock songs soon to try and break the comfort of only sharing pure trip hop since it almost kept you from sharing a great group like that.



When I first listened to trip hop I thought it was boring ambient music with some hip hop style drum beats. I didn't even like Archive's Londinium album at first but after actually listening to it with some decent headphones and volume turned up, paying attention to all the sounds I realized how much of a trip hop song I didn't hear and how amazing it was. The same songs I thought were boring now sounded like the best thing ever. I was only listening to the loudest ambient sound and drum beats on poor quality headphones and speakers. I probably would of never became a trip hop fanatic if I didn't give it a second chance and got to listen to it on decent speakers. As a byproduct it also got me into hip hop since the only hip hop I thought of was mainstream rap hip hop which I despise.

One of my top 5 favorite Unkle songs. I think this is a mix of alternative rock, trip hop, and electronica.


Quiet Time is truly an amazing song from Archive. They need to make another album with Rosko John in it. I can't really make out what is being said at the end of the song other than maybe "freedom fall, I'll never" and no lyrics site has it but it just sounds so awesome.



I'm probably going to unload more Archive and Unkle on you guys in the future.

I like those genres, though I haven't listened to it in a while.

Neat tune and I really like the way the video was done; nothing says getting wracked to the core like a good dose of dissociation.

Nice share now that I'm on break I'm going to chill to some trip hop albums

My class had a small christmas party, just giving gifts to our teacher, eating donuts, and listening to music. Everyone was taking turns playing music, when it became my turn the first time I decided to play a recent Massive Attack song. Everyone was pretty much saying "WTF is this?" and "Are you a hipster?". And now I'm bit sad at the possibility of trip hop not getting another golden era any decade soon if this how my generation sees one of the biggest trip hop artist ever. I even tried playing some trip hop that has rap and they didn't like it either.



Speaking of the holidays I just discovered a new song and artist. I learned from the comment sections that this song was used in a holiday movie called "The Holiday" so now I'm going to watch that movie.

Interesting. I thought that was Imogen Heap singing (she has a pretty distinct voice), but I didn't realise she'd been part of a duo before.

This is neat, just found it on Youtube - almost reminds me of a smoother Purity Ring with electronics and beats reminiscent of Sepalcure:

I've listened to that duo before, from their song Unfold, it felt too much like the type of music sepalcure makes which is a turn off for me, but skimming through that EP you posted allowed me to give them another chance. I really like "Can I" and "Fantasy"

Found this new artist and this song has a nice mix of downtempo and trip hop

A remix of an Alice Russell song:

I always felt like trip-hop, at it's core, was something like a UK remodeling of reggae and dancehall - you hear dancehall heavily in tunes like Tricky's Tricky Kid (I can visualize that Jamaican outdoor club from the movie Belly when I listen to it).

This one's reggae-heavy in a way where she sounds like she's partly copping Martina and even throwing some Brad Nowell tricks in for good measure:



And what has to be my favorite oldshool Massive Attack tune:
