the best songs ever: the lost years

[gabrielle]

Quote:Trip hop is a subgenre of electronic music that originated in the early 1990s in the United Kingdom, especially Bristol.[3] Deriving from later idioms of acid house,[4] the term was first used by the British music media and press as a way to describe the more experimental variant of breakbeat emerging from the Bristol Sound scene, which contained influences of soul, funk and jazz.[4][5] It has been described as "Europe's alternative choice in the second half of the '90s", and "a fusion of hip hop and electronica until neither genre is recognisable".[6] Trip hop music fuses several styles and has much in common with other genres; it has several qualities similar to ambient music, and its drum-based breakdowns share characteristics with hip hop.[4] It also contains elements of R&B, dub and house, as well as other electronic music. Trip hop can be highly experimental.[4]

A couple more good ones from that same album by Portishead.  I didn't really catch onto them until their later, second album.
