Abstract Hip Hop.

<< < (2/3) > >>

kikanjuuneko:
Uh, I thought trip-hop was usually instrumental.

nescience:
Not true at all.  The three most popular originators of trip hop (Portishead, Massive Attack, and Tricky) all featured vocals prominently in their music.

Decima:
Some of the pages you linked to required membership, but of the ones that did not, Sixtoo was what I found to be most interresting. Specially that track with the 6/8 feel.

kikanjuuneko:
Okay, I'll take that, but there's lots of artists that don't have any vocals at all, or only use samples as vocals, and they're described as trip-hop too. My point was probably more that hip-hop (as a music genre) usually requires some kind of vocal input other than samples to be just that.

Decima:
So you mean that Hiphop without vocals is Triphop? Naaah, offcourse theres such a thing as instrumental hiphop. I guess hiphop is a kinda wide expression too. And, though as I said before this is strictly based on Ishkur and Wikipedia, most people seem to define Abstract Hiphop as DJ Shadow and the Ninja Tunes label.

Some of the Ninja Tune compilations are even called "Abstract Hiphop"blabla right?
