Message: [QUOTE="Zooey, post: 75145, member: 2733"] My goal with listing "Teardrop" and "Glory Box", wasn't to show their best song, or to show something obscure, but to show that, despite not a lot of people knowing about the genre, that its been in the mainstream in some way or the other. A lot of times when introducing people to Trip Hop ([I]or Shoegaze, or Dream Pop[/I]), they've actually heard it many times before, but just didn't know it was a entire genre of music. Hopefully that makes sense. I'll link some actual obscure Trip Hop here, Industrial group that got noticed by Nine Inch Nails, their first album dabbled slightly, before going full Trip Hop on their second album.

[MEDIA=youtube]SzkB68iQf_M[/MEDIA] Baby Fox, both their albums are great, but their second is far more darker which is why i enjoy it. Deep bass, seductive, all that. [MEDIA=youtube]wneQxlRQsDQ[/MEDIA] Italian Trip Hop? Sure why not. This is the good stuff. [MEDIA=youtube]s2LILV2NkKc[/MEDIA] [automerge]1739488872[/automerge] If you want to see Bowery Electric go fully into the genre, i recommend the album, "Lushlife", which came after it. I do think "Beat" however is a good bridge between Shoegaze and Trip Hop, although im not sure many Shoegaze listeners would enjoy Trip Hop? I remember some people feeling disappointed that "Lushlife" abandoned alot of the Shoegazey elements. [automerge]1739499967[/automerge] Bent's "Programmed to Love" has quite a few good tracks, "Private Road", and my other favorite being "A Ribbon For My Hair". I forget how much of a beast of a album it is, something like nearly 20 tracks, and 70 minutes, so its been a while since ive given it a full listen thru. [/QUOTE]
