A masterpiece from Bristol that depicts a dark and sensual labyrinth of sound.
This trip-hop work is emblematic of the Bristol sound. Heavy bass and textured noise blend together, and Martina Topley-Bird's vocals add a touch of nuance. The avant-garde composition renews the sound image of the post-hip-hop era.
Deeply soaring basslines and dry drum loops intertwine, with even the noises and breathing sounds floating in the gaps of the sound meticulously constructed. Martina Topley-Bird's soft voice contrasts with Tricky's low-pitched narration, creating a sonic world where tension and sensuality coexist. The texture, which blends jazz, hip-hop, and dub, went beyond the Bristol scene and determined the direction of 90s music. A milestone in trip-hop where solitude and pleasure coexist.
