Good list. Definitely consider "In/Flux" by DJ Shadow. That track was revolutionary.

Thanks! I will update the list soon and see what I can do about it...

Stumbled this and thought I'd make a playlist for the curious!

Some stuff wasn't available but still pretty awesome.

That's cool, but almost every recording can be listened to on Youtube as well (but just be sure to click on the longer versions instead of the radio edits in some cases).
Good to see so much people actually saw my list and that there's still so much love for this almost dead genre. Still waiting on the new Massive Attack album, expectations are high.
I still need to update the list but the changes that I'm going to make are minor.
If anyone good has suggestions for any of my lists, feel free to reply as well.

Neat list. I love trip hop, but its an extremely difficult genre to find stuff in so its great to have this list as a reference. Only one Ruby track though? I cant think of a song of hers that I *dont* like...

Not sure if this would exactly count (Im not nearly as well-versed in this genre as you are), but give a listen to Vanessa Daou-Near The Black Forest (might be "In the..." - cant remember). Let me know how you would classify that and if it fits into the trip hop category

A couple of these songs I didnt realize were Trip Hop...like Justify My Love...who knew? (not me, obviously)

Fantastic, thank you. There's a fair bit here I've never heard - I'll be doing quite a bit of downloading over the next few days. Although I don't know if I'd define all of the ones I know as trip-hop (IE Clint Eastwood?). Still, great list, I've been considering making/waiting for one for quite a while.
