yo it's all dreamy and shit
but it's like
instrumental trip hop
ya dig?
you should
Genre: Trip Hop
For some reason there is a dearth of shitty trip hop in the world. Seriously every trip hop release I listen to is good. Emancipator is no exception. His beats and melodies are up there with some of my favourite electronic releases in recent memory.
This release is insanely pretty and catchy, but also has immense replay value.
In particular, the last few songs from "Lionheart" onwards just rule so hard.
Phones you should def check this one out.

Portishead, along with Massive Attack and a few others, are one of the pioneers of the little known genre "trip-hop". Truth be told, I don't know all that much about the genre, except that it's incredible when done right. Third is Portishead's third (get it?) album, and their first in 14 years. Combining precision instrumental work, gripping atmospheres and incredibly beautiful (but haunting) vocals. The lyrics focus a lot on relationships and despondent emotions (Neon Smile is my favorite track, listen to the vox). This album makes the top 5 of Phones' 08 albums quite easily. Definitely an album to sit back and chill to, and we can always use another one of those.

On a side note, me and qwe will try our hardest to post regularly, but as mentioned, many things have come up (women, school, work, women), so sorry for the lack of posting.
