1 | Prefuse 73 Perverted Undertone
The elemental, instrumental essence of chill out |
2 | Radiohead I Might Be Wrong
Not trip-hop? Give it a second chance and feel the groove flowing into your veins. Funky bass, dreamy lyrics... |
3 | Sofa Surfers Superluminal
The catchy tone, ripple bass line, screaming violin and those Mani Obeya lyrics are just magical. |
4 | Bonobo All In Forms
One of the "heaviest" multi-layered beats from Bonobo. |
5 | Hidden Orchestra Spoken
An instrumental crescendo made of a dreamy saxo, slightly decorated keyboard notes, and some jazzy drums... |
6 | Gorillaz Spitting Out The Demons
Hallucinating intro, dropping into a heavy distorted bass line capable of blowing your brains out. Reggae style on the guitar, damn you, Damon Albarn, you sexy beast! |
7 | Submotion Orchestra Time Will Wait
Has an angel ever whispered at you ear? These synths are so heavy that it could be considered dubstep. |
8 | Portishead Mysterons
Do I really need to write a description for a classic album intro from the ultimate trip-hop act ever? |
9 | Archive Feel It
...and now it flows frenetically with the Maxinquaye influenced guitar, the garage, the post punk, just Feel It! |
10 | Son Lux Raise
An anguished voice between some chord instruments breaks into what? Why not? The synthetic drums and the industrial harsh bridge fits in a rare and organic manner... |
11 | Sevdaliza Hubris
The sound of silence, the pause between is the main element in this 2017 Portishead, neo-soul influenced piece. Flawless production. |
12 | Depeche Mode Personal Jesus
The electro-country exists! |
13 | Blockhead Smoke Signals
If you look for "multi-layered groove genius" on the dictionary, you'll find a description of Tony Simon music. |
14 | TV on the Radio DLZ
To be sincere, I found this bongo driven song on a Breaking Bad chapter. Nice music there... |
15 | Black Atlass Paris
Odd instrumental reverberation into a full atmospheric vocals and drums. Dreamy stuff |
16 | Lovage Anger Management
Of course Mr. Patton, you can also record a depressing trip-hop album, why not? |
17 | Massive Attack Safe From Harm - Just A Dub
What if we remove the perfect vocals from that 90's electronica hymn, and replace it with some more dub dub dub |
18 | NAO Fool To Love
The cloying voice you ever gonna hear and still enjoy. Seriously. |
19 | Slackwax Night Out
An electro organic blues with a voice that resembles Leonard Cohen and Warhaus. Nice production |
20 | Clark Winter Linn
The path is dark and dense, boy... |
