95-97 MTV got me into these type of artists.

portishead
massive attack
the prodigy
tricky
paranoid Android by radiohead came on like every hour in the summer when mtv wasnt doing some summer Beach house shyt.


felt like the only kid in Detroit liking this
shyt


far from it.
I was at msu when they debuted.
they are my favorite group ever and Beth gibbons is my favorite singer along with Bjork.

actually i was at a rave in st Andrews and Portishead was heavyilu played there in like 95, and in 96 too.

bout to try out this cheap Rockville fifty watt speaker for twenty bucks.
to see if this shyt really 50rms or some bullshyt.
by playing this Portishead in a minute tho.

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

these bands were not deep house bands...this is a quintessential deep house tune from mad rey...Portishead,MA were under the trip hop/lo fi umbrella not deep house,a totally different genre.



Ps:play the video on a good system...this shyt knocks



Leon Vynehall..another deep house mover
