This seller is rad! Glad I replaced this one. Good Saturday vibes
Now we all know where you live!!! Seriously tho, that’s so cool. Gonna listen again tonight
Totally awesome
Living in Bristol during the 90’s did feel special. There were so many different artists making instrumental hip-hop/Breaky grooves. It was always on early mornings after a night out dancing. Ninja Tune is such a great label and I would venture the Journeys by DJ mix as very influential. Someone posted a video of Ruby, I loved her former band Silverfish (grindy, grimey uk hardcore/grunge sort of stuff). I found the switch to Trip-hop interesting and have her album (as well as the Silverfish vinyls).
I would listen to this sort of stuff during the week (in the 90’s) as an alternative to Techno/House and it opened so many doors to Jazz, funk, latin. afro-beat/funk etc.
Thanks for posting so many great memories
This is Ruby singing in her previous band Siverfish doing a great cover of ‘White Lines’:
I had a teenage crush on her and met her in Bristol while on tour with Gallon Drunk and Therapy? (before they went rock metal)…
Leslie Rankine (Ruby) singing on a Pigface cover of a Silverfish tune, more industrial than trip hop. But there was a definite connection and influence between bands like Pigbag (uk west-country industrial post-punk) and the Wild Bunch… plus there is so little Silverfish online I like to promote when I can:
oh- and Luke Vibert produced probably my favourite tune in the genre of Trip-hop:
don’t think ‘C’ (Leslie Winer) has been mentioned on here, but her debut album ‘Witch’ from 1993 was a true proto triphop masterpiece … if you can find a copy grab it… ( https://www.discogs.com/-Witch/master/86792 )
someone has put it on youtube luckily (though I prefered the cover when it was released under the ‘C’ pseudonym )
Trip hop, or hip hop. This would be the pinnacle of what I would love to achieve if I had the skills. My nirvana
Amazing track
his best track! Indescribable feeling
Not strictly trip-hop, much more in the dub fields with interesting influences from mediterranean music:
Love this
Really like this style. Will check out more from this artist.
