The trip hop debut poll

[dodgepot]

who cares. only you it seems. and probably fictionist over there.

not us though, eh foo?

 

[Orang Utan]

Tricky is shit though (and I'm not just saying that)

 

[Orang Utan]

He could at least enunciate

 

[foo]

but they are not trip hop are they ltc, andi thought we were getting all technical here on who is trip hop

well quite. but let's not get all petty and pedantic eh.


if you think Tricky's shit, there are loads of threads with no Tricky on them Clyde. go play.

 

[dodgepot]

there was a bit of a crossover between trip-hop and big beat. big beat was when it got a bit beery.

 

[Orang Utan]

but they are not trip hop are they ltc, andi thought we were getting all technical here on who is trip hop

No, but the remix is the key element here not the band remixed

I want to slag him off though - too many people agreeing here

 

[dodgepot]

he talked funny. people who talk like that are weird. what do you think, Rollem?

 

[kyser_soze]

I voted for Dummy, but I rate Portishead as a better album.

 

[dodgepot]

he doesn't really talk funny or weird. i'm just being silly.

 

[foo]

he looked a bit wierd too.

 

[Orang Utan]

Is it a Bristol thing or a weed thing? Or both?

 

[foo]

he doesn't really talk funny or weird. i'm just being silly.

apparently his way of whisper talking is called Sprechgesang. i didn't know that. i bet Clyde did though. and i bet he'll say Tricky doesn't even Sprechgesang properly.

 

[dodgepot]

can we just talk about the music now, man?

 

[Orang Utan]

That's what Lou Reed and Rex Harrison do too. And that Streets fella

 

[Rollem]

i think you're a bit weird

 

[foo]

some more not proper trip-hop.

as much as i rate Tricky's stuff, and have always loved nearly everything he's done - and will probably always listen to it - i really really really hate the fact that he doesn't, and never bloody has, credit Martina properly. his sound would have been so totally different without her.



this makes me think he's a prick.

 

[embree]

Yes, Blue Lines only really has two good tracks, but Protection is ace almost all the way through except for that shoddy Doors track at the end.

no

I think Protection and Blue Lines are both ace and both very different to each other

no

he doesn't say very much about anything though to be fair, but yeah, bit prickish i am guessing...

 

[foo]

it should've been Tricky and Martina.

bit like Renee and Renate, Bristol style.

 

[dodgepot]

No, I believe it was coined by Andy Pemberton in Mixmag to describe the instrumental hip hop that labels like Mo Wax were releasing - DJ Shadow and such. I think other producers like Fila Brazillia and Funky Porcini were mentioned too. I'll see if I can root it out

funki porcini was ace. head phone sex was a great album.

 

[foo]

i concur. i've got that album just above my head as it happens, and i think i might play it right now instead of popping over to tescos.

rock n roll.

 

[dodgepot]

what were you going to get in tesco? tescos? tesco's?

yeh, but, he did wear a wedding dress, so that's gotta count for something, right?

 

[foo]

what were you going to get in tesco? tescos? tesco's?

your christmas present.

and some baubles.

and eggs.

 

[foo]

and didn't he look cute

i used to see him about in Bristol when i was a teenager....long story. and i'm going to tescos.

 

[sojourner]

and didn't he look cute

I was rather attracted by the combination of the music and cross-dressing, yes. And martina looked rather fetching as the groom

 

[bluestreak]

Tricky is shit though (and I'm not just saying that)

You and I are fucking through man. You and your dirty mouth

 

[Orang Utan]

There is not one thing about Tricky that appeals. Sorry.
