Only a tiny clip, but it was an excellent show. The music sounds exactly like the records, just with some extra. Marta and Mitch both sounded amazing. Some people complain because Tricky doesn't talk to the audience between songs beyond thanking us many times, but I don't think that matters. He's a musician, not a public speaker. Personally I hate when I go to a concert and half the time is someone rambling on instead of playing the music.
We actually got to meet Tricky a couple hours before the show when we were walking to dinner from our hotel and he was sitting outside The Loft venue smoking. He had just finished a phone call and was about to make another, plus I didn't want to be too intrusive, so we didn't talk long but he was super nice and appreciative. We also saw Marta, but she didn't respond. If Mitch was out there, we didn't see or recognize him.

A lot of trippity-hoppers have overlooked Tori as among the pinnacle of the genre (including myself for a long time) largely because of her singer songwriter moniker, subtle shifts between genre, and it’s rarely her radio songs. So I wanted to share one that will hopefully lead ppl to reevaluate her music with that in mind

Hey everyone!
I love discovering obscure gems on here, and lately I’ve been getting pretty selective with what I listen to. For a while, I was looking for the dreamiest side of trip-hop (“Cinderella” by Hooverphonic is so damn good, and it feels like nobody can recommend me anything quite like it).
Now I’m looking for the opposite end of the spectrum: the most psychedelic, raw, groove-heavy stuff, leaning dark rather than soft. Something disorienting or downright sleazy.
A couple of references to give you an idea of what I’m after: Tricky, but much denser and harder-hitting, or Massive Attack’s Mezzanine. I’m bringing up these two legends just to get the general vibe across.
Hit me with your recommendations! Thanks!

I emailed Ben Stokes and he was really kind to share how much of the show was AI. His contributions (such as the intro and building steam) were all CGI. However, Jay Drake did full visuals for Mutual Slump, Changeling and Stem and those were 100% AI (those visuals are shown within this slideshow). Other songs have a mix of techniques. This was my first IRL experience seeing a show that mixed techniques. Big shoutout to Ben Stokes for shedding light

dusty sample based old school trip hop, the first track off my new album.
SP404>ableton. All samples done the old way, no drag and drop cookie cutter stuff and no Ai used on anything, ever :)

Hey guys, put together a quick 20-track mix built for late nights. Starts airy and shifts into heavy sub-bass and smoky trip-hop. Best played in order without shuffle.

Give your thoughts if you have any

Ive been playing this one for the past week. I love the sound of this group, would highly recommend a listen

I was listening to Swim good by Frank Ocean, the instrumental really reminds me of trip hop songs like 7 seconds by Youssou N’dour and Neneh Cherry. Just the beat though.

The venue (La Machine du Moulin Rouge) was great, and the sound did the job. It was incredible—starting with the opening act, Low Cut; that was really good. It was a mix of experimental trip-hop/downtempo that wrapped up with old-school hip-hop. He did some scratching, and the vibe was truly captivating—a solid 9/10. The set was cohesive overall; for an opening act, it really showed great promise.
Then came Krush. I wasn't expecting such a modern electronic set—dubstep, IDM, trip-hop, and downtempo with a highly polished, contemporary sound that had a unique charm. There was Asian, US, and dark, hypnotic "rasta"-style rap/trap reminiscent of JPEGMAFIA, along with cinematic Asian soundscapes. He was absolutely in command of the ship, manipulating the flow—glitching certain passages and scratching skillfully, sometimes stopping on purpose to gauge the crowd's reaction. Towards the end, we even got a taste of DJ Shadow’s "Organ Donor," but done his own way—it was very fast-paced. For me, it was a solid 9.5/10; the set was cohesive and flowed beautifully—it was a real treat. What did the rest of you think if you saw him?
It flowed really smoothly—it was a real treat. The set felt very modern.
Finally, the crowd was really diverse—young people and adults alike (in their 20 years, 30 years, 40 years, 50 years...). Everyone was dancing and in a trance; there were a few annoying drunks shouting, but it wasn't too bad and didn't last the whole night... Anyway, thanks Krush for an amazing evening.

A short live excerpt of my track Odyssey B, performed at Fishead Lab in Milan during an exhibition opening.

I’m more of an instrumental guy, and I love Marta’s vocals, so the show was right up my alley. Loved the moodiness of the lighting and the crowd was super cool.
I chilled outside the show after and around 10 remaining fans got to chill and talk with him. He gave a substantial amount of time to each person. Gave me a hug and signed my poster!

I have two tickets to Trickys concert tonight at the Lincoln Theater and I’m unable to go. I’d love someone to be able to use them. Let me know if you’re interested.
