so a while back I met this guy. british guy, real cool and chill. he works as tech support somewhere. then one day was at his place chillin listening to music, and i noticed that his music folder had a lot of ninjatunes and trip hop. i was so happy because i didn't think i would meet anyone in life that listened to that kind of stuff since all my friends listen to either rock or hip hop =/

anyone here listen to trip hop? some of my fav artists:

unkle
funki porcini
herbaliser
thievery corporation
amon tobin
bonobo
9 lazy 9
dj food
clifford gilberto

just want to see if anyone on TL listens =D

Thievery Corporation is great. I recommend listening to their song Shadows of Ourselves

Massive Attack are the pioneering force behind the trip-hop. Try also bands like Smoke City, Laika, Portishead, Sneaker Pimps, Supreme Beings of Leisure, DJ Shadow, Lamb, Goldfrapp and Hooverphonic

Thievery Corp and Zero 7 are not exactly trip-hop, but I dont know a trip-hop fan who doesnt love those two bands.

I'm a trip-hop junkie

first heard them in this ford spot, but the whole album is pretty good.

The artists you list go beyond what is generally considered trip-hop. You should check out stuff from the low end theory/brainfeeder scene that is gaining momentum in los angeles these days like:

flying lotus+ Show Spoiler +

and
nosaj thing + Show Spoiler +

These podcasts are a good way to get into it http://lowendtheoryclub.com/podcast/

I saw a Dj in mid to late 90s at a rave called Mindflow I believe.His Dj name was Aler or Alert. One of the best Mixed tapes I got from him had no clue how to spell his name since it was graffiti writing on the tape T_T . I could look up the flyer....humm

huge fan of Portishead.

Going to see Massive Attack live in Croatia in 4 months, can't wait for that.

Also, DJ Shadow and Zero 7 are fantastic in their own field (like Tricky)

DJ Krush, DJ Cam!

This song is... so good...

DJ Krush is known as a Trip-Hop artist but his style spans endless genres.

Groove Salad on SomaFM plays a lot of music that would fall into the genre of Trip Hop. I've been listening to Soma & Digital Gunfire since my dial-up days when I first learned and understood how Shoutcast & online radio work.
