Very specific music request: trippy songs!

[Shakespeare]

For point of comparison, songs that you might think of in this category: Bitter:Sweet's The Mating Game, DARE from the Gorillaz' Demon Days, the remixed version of Suzanne Vega's Tom's Diner.

Whatcha got for me?

16. Tangerine Dream does good work

I first heard them in a couple of movie soundtracks - Sorcerer, and Thief.

The music "made" Sorcerer's sphincter-clenching drive through the jungle.

Edit: Oh, yeah, the Poland concert. That also goes back. I finally recorded it from vinyl to a .wav file, to cd, and onto the ipod. It's a pita, but some music is worth it.

6. Trip Hop? Seriously?

Tell me more...this I gotta hear!

LOVE Portishead. That's what the new Bitter:Sweet album reminds me of, VERY much.

10. Trip Hop

Portishead is considered "trip hop" although they and massive attack don't like that term, they prefer the term "Bristol sound" because they developed a sound that was unique to Bristol, England.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trip_hop

Trip hop (also known as the Bristol sound or Bristol acid rap) is a term coined by British dance magazine Mixmag, to describe DJ Shadow 's hip hop instrumentals that (inspired by Organized Konfusion's track "Releasing Hypnotical Gases") changed-up the beat and pallet mid-cut, giving the listener the impression they were on a musical journey. Later, the Trip Hop description was applied to a musical trend in the mid-1990s; trip hop is downtempo electronic music that grew out of England's hip hop and house scenes. Sometimes characterized by a reliance on breakbeats and a sample-heavy, often moody sound pioneered by Coldcut's remix of Eric B. & Rakim's "Paid in Full", trip hop gained notice via popular artists such as Portishead, Massive Attack, Thievery Corporation, Tricky, and rock-influenced sound groups such as Ruby, California's DJ Shadow, and the UK's Howie B.

Morcheeba originating from Hythe in Kent and Londoners Glideascope are also often associated with this sound. The latest additions to this line of performers are Jem and Australia's Spook. The Bristol Sound came out of the wider Bristol Urban Culture scene.

The style is perhaps typified by Massive Attack's piece "Unfinished Sympathy" which has frequently been described as one of the best songs of all time, according to polls produced by MTV2, NME, and various other magazines and reviewers. <1> A reviewer for the BBC has said that: "More than a decade after its release it remains one of the most moving pieces of dance music ever, able to soften hearts and excite minds just as keenly as a ballad by Bacharach or a melody by McCartney."
