PORTISHEAD APPRECIATION THREAD for all you DIGGIN IN THE CRATES dudes from the 90s and 2000s

[ThaRealness]

I remember being deployed and a white kid put me on. He actually taught me how to use Ableton and FL Studio. I immediately started outshining him cuz my chops had that flava and my drums had that bop. He was on some Euro shyt that didn't resonate with folks.

This off topic ass shyt

This.
Portishead,tricky and Massive Attack were forging a new path.
Whatever they were smoking in Bristol at that time was different.

 

[old pig]

their self titled album was classic

Dummy/Portishead/Roseland NYC live/Third makes the cypher complete

Massive Attack's Blue Lines album was good too. Esthero's Breath From Another, da Maxinquaye album, Sneaker Pimps' 6 Underground, some of my favorite deep house albums. shyt to vibe to, especially w/these funky ass heauxs

i remember walking into a mall one day...it was the F.Y.E record store i recall one of the few that still had vinyl and hearing this over the P.A system...

asking the dude..WTF IS THAT?!?!

he responded Portishead

i instantly bought that LP "Dummy" and fell in love with it

introduced it to a producer friend of mine and he said it changed his whole perspective on sound

I had almost exactly the same experience. It was at Crown Center in KCMO....I was walking by a Musicland store and heard "Only You" playing over the speakers, immediately went in and asked who/what genre that was.

Their first two albums are classic....their third one is cool but I prefer the first two because they sound like hip-hop, beat-wise. The third one mostly moved away from samples and scratching.

They need to drop some new shyt, that last album was 10 years ago.

Always laugh seeing producers in past few years claim they doing this and that, developing new styles when all they do is just make trip hop beats
