Genre Angst! Trip-Hop: Only its hairdresser knows for sure!

so yeah if you want that bristol sound then get portishead. If you want the real shit get dj shadow.

Originally the term Trip Hop pertained exclusively to a form of instrumental dance music that was developed by DJ's in New York, who started off by playing records at down tempo speeds (eg. playing 45rpm records at 33rpm), but now is generally accepted to be the style we recognise today. The term Trip Hop (in the modern sense) was first used by the British music press to label the now familiar "Bristol sound" of Portishead et al.

Oh, by "online definition" you mean "some bloke on a forum used it."

Btw, "in the modern sense" tends to mean "what it actually means now" and that guy's post continues with "The better known protagonists of Trip Hop are :

Portishead
Massive Attack
Tricky"

Oh well.

I actually prefer DJ Shadow to Portishead, but that's not really relevant.

Hey FA,

ever asked yourself why no one ever agrees with you? i mean not one person in this thread agrees with you. This isn't the first thread that no one has agreed with either. Just sayin....

i'll also ask again, mr. music critic, where is your music? where is your music? where is your music? where is your music?

I forgot all about Mono. I liked that first album, gotta pull that one out again. Lamb was kind of a disappointment...
