a guy in my office is 'kinda' getting into the whole EDM scene, but he is more into the downtempo/ K&D/ trip hop scene.

any websites w/ mixes you can recommend help find this style o' music?

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

Anyone have individual tune recommendations?

By the way, if anyone watched Blade 3, the guy in there talks about trip hop :P

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

muchas gracias... :D

the info has been relayed!

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

I was coming to work a few minutes ago and on the radio they were playing a new Thievery Corporation song with Talking Heads? David Byrne on vocals, "The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter", from their new album.

I deffinitely recommend that.

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

Essential albums:

Dj Shadow - The Private Press Massive Attack - Mezzanine Massive Attack - 100th Window Four Tet - Rounds Four Tet - Pause Zero 7 - Simple Things

Those are all albums and are all signed to pretty major labels so finding them will be easy. These are some albums that OWN.

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

Any Tricky cd would be a good trip-hop cd. I personally like angels with dirth faces & Pre-Millenium tension. As for down-tempo stuff. Ther are several list on here that can help you out with that.

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

Kruder & Dorfmeister :Bingo:

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

Got some track names for you.

Some of these are old an swing between downtempo and ambient work, but all of these tracks are top notch:

Strike Boys- Outerspace Sounds from the ground- Razz Tosca- Ocean Beat Heights of Abraham- Eva (Instrumental Mix) Leftfield- Song of Life (Underworld Remix) Fresh Moods- Shiny Cage Tripswitch- Silver- This track is real nice! Gaelle- Rain Elisa- Come speak to Me (Deep Dish Mix) Brahma- Even Flow- Toes in the Sand Recordings Trafik- Your Light- (Im Dark Calm Elec. Mix) Phuture Primitive- Elysium Mellenia Nova- Beautiful Sinead O'Connor- Troy (Schill Out Mix)

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

you guys are too much. thanks for all the great info!

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

I just bought Thievories' new album this week, really good. A bit different from what I'm used to from them, more um; male vocals. But excellent nonetheless.

Also try Hooverphonic. 2 wicky and Inhaler are well known tracks by them.

Morcheeba and Portishead are also good.

Check out the Bedroom Communities VA, Vol 1 & 2. Not so much trip hop but great loungy style tracks. original.

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

For a live mix, I'd recommend Kruder & Dorfmeister (can't go wrong with anything by these guys...sheer geniuses!) live at Snowbombing. Must be from around 2003, maybe even 02. Great set that covers a lot of ground in only the way K&D can.

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

anyhting by Tosca (clive henry and ????) is brilliant downtempo, smoke weed, chill the fuck out music.

Re: Looking for Trip Hop / Downtempo Mixes

Portishead also might be a band to look (or hear) into.

[quote=thesightless]anyhting by Tosca (clive henry and ????) is brilliant downtempo, smoke weed, chill the fuck out music.[/quote] Tosca is Richard Dorfmeister and Rupert Huber and as anything dorfmeister touches, their tracks are brilliant! :Bingo:
