Ah, Rollins is just displaying his ignorance. For every terrible run-of-the-mill dance track or mindless slab of Eurodisco, there's something amazing by Orbital, Massive Attack, Chemical Brothers, Lemon Jelly, Portishead, Basement Jaxx, Leftfield...
you forgot zero 7,gotan project,dead can dance,amon tobin,sneaker pimps.
those are actual bands...they play instruments..trip hop is amazing.
again,as i stated..i like techno,but i do not agree that having the ability to use reson or acid pro should be a validation of supremacy over actual musicianship.
talented?creative? of course.
more relevant than actual musicians? never.
the bands you posted are just that...bands.
oh..and i am in LOVE with beth gibbons!!!!

Awesome sift. I do like Portishead, and I also like Andrew Bird. Emily is a nice hybrid of the two.

I never like those 5 videos being my top ones. But anyways, here is a list of top videos from people that are no longer active (or as active as before) and are great videosifters

One of those vids I wish I could vote for twice.


looks like you're getting your 2nd chance!

I had one for a little while, but someone "borrowed" it. People remarked that I had a "feel" for it. Don't play much electric anymore anyway. Now and again.

I'm glad showed a little bit of that guitarist, because I've always loved that little solo.

Do you have a Wah pedal? Doesn't need to be a crybaby, but that's what I use. So of course I'm gonna promote Hendrix Crybabies.

Reminds me of <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.kidbeyond.com/>Kid Beyond who appears in this clip as well: http://www.videosift.com/video/Portishead-Wandering-Stars-amazing-live-beatbox-looping


He has one clip where he explains the process.
Could have sworn that clip was already on here somewhere but I can´t find it.
Here is the YT link: http://de.youtube.com/watch?v=HfBh3lZZi8Q

really fun; looking forward to hearing it. what audio mixing software did you use, out of curiousity?

i actually have a female vocals playlist (neko case, bjork, allison krauss, portishead, etc.)

Portishead's P3, very fine comeback.

A cover of Elliot Smith's "Twilight" (nothing to do with the recent movie!) from a certain Alex Cohen.

Usual digging on the "past-yard" at music villa.
