Tricky is definitely more psychedelic than Goldie, he's more in the sky stone/prince vein. He did alot of acid, went to Glastonbury. His music is very weed. Goldie is xtc and a lot of Gak. I mean tricky is Gak as well in parts, don't get me wrong

I'm confused.

I'm listening to Maxinquaye and it sounds like a Lily Allen/Kate Nash album with edgy beats.

Nah this isn't for me at all. Sounds SO dated.

Does he have better albums than this?

Yes, pre-millenium tension. Angels with dirty faces. Blowback.

Good Craner on this thread. I got an envelope through the door today with my name spelt wrong (Craner always spells it the Welsh way) and some newspaper clippings in it. No note or letter or anything! Haven't checked to see what it is yet. Thanks Craner!

this is all the conservatism that barty accuses Americans of far eclipsed. it's like he's forcing himself to be dred. no flow. no water. no tactility. sheesh, mate, we know you love the skunk but take a fucking drink its not going to kill your dark paranoia. he's all off beat and stumbling around like a blobbering kethead. it's embarrassing.

tricky sounds like an industry conceit. a being genetically-engineered to please the music press. his music isn't emerging from a real emotional/cultural/aesthetic impetus but rather from a checklist of influences that'll make music journalists spunk their pants (rap, dub poetry, post punk, etc.).

it probably doesn't help that for us younglings our first encounter with that aesthetic was faux-edgy car adverts/chanel 4 idents.

bastardised before it had the chance.

Don't understand this line of argument from you both. Tricky is not playing a character, he is what he is.

He says something about this in his book, how the maxinquaye sound was everywhere for a while, which prompted him to go in a different direction
