Tom Waits doesn't often collaborate with others, but word got out that he wanted to work with Tricky. The Bristol producer who pioneered trip hop with Massive Attack in the 90's and who is set to release a new solo album next month, was told by Island Records founder Chris Blackwell that Waits likes his music and would like to meet with him in San Francisco. Tricky told the press: "I can't ima...

It's been 5 years since his last release, but Tricky is preparing to work his downtempo magic on the music scene again, finally! The British producer was a household name in the 90's: he collaborated on the first 2 Massive Attack albums and created the definitive trip-hop album, Maxinquaye. His new LP, Knowle West Boy was largely self-produced, with additional production and mixing by Switch!...

Tricky used to be a kingpin of UK electronica, mastering his chops on the mic with Massive Attack and then releasing his own music, starting with Maxinquaye in '95. Now he's got his own label, Brown Punk, which he formed with Chris Blackwell (of Island Records and Bob Marley fame) and an album of fresh tunes on the way. The new album is called Knowle West Boy, named after the Bristol hood he ...

The third single to be taken from last year’s album Knowle West Boy, Puppy Toy is an odd beast. It starts with a jazzy piano riff, over which Tricky’s gruff mumble arrives, followed by a thoughtful double-bass.It is a lovely start which is then transformed by rock guitar, drumming and some Mariah Carey like vocals. It is like sitting in a smoky jazz club, closing your eyes, soaking up the atmo

He looked back at me with this blank stare. `You know, Tricky?' I responded. He had no idea who I was referring to. I...

Just been updating my blog and I've finally gotten round to reveiwing one of the best British covers ever - Tricky's take on Public Enemy's Black Steel In The Hour Of Chaos. Truly awesome & imho, better than the original.....

I am not one much for a cover song. I get stuck on an original artist's interpretation. Plus, in Alaska it seems some bands only reside to covers in order to make it. However, I have to admit that Tricky's version of Black Steel is an exception. Just wondering if any else out there has had a similar experience where a cover song is done better by another band. Better yet, do you enjoy thi...

It says "To Brenden, Love Tricky"Robot Koch of Jahcoozi is one of the close friends of ISOA. Over the last two years a fair amount of people have been contacted, interviewed, visited, promoed etc for this blog (and the radio show The Spirit Of Albion) but very few people have come out as people I email for fun and keep a dialogue going with. Robot Koch is one of those people. I like messagin...

I recommend that you listen to this song and its slowly built up panic and rage while reading this...'The Catacombs of Paris or Catacombes de Paris are an underground ossuary in Paris, France. Most of Paris's larger churches once had their own cemeteries, but city growth and generations of dead began to overwhelm them. From the late seventeenth century, Paris's largest Les Innocents cemetery w...

'Cause this is just too hot to be tolerated under the covers. Yup. I've been enjoying the hell out of Tricky's new album (review to come soon) lately yum yum. Among the tracks, one can find a cover of Kylie Minogue's Slow. And it's hot. Layers of sexual vibes falling over you with no mercy or remorse. Best enjoyed loud. Mind the hotness! Original for measure (WARNING! Kylie Minogue and -mostly ...

I saw Transporter 3 a couple days ago (not my favorite from the trilogy) & damn, that girl (Natalya Rudakova) is different & that makes her pretty hot! Anyway… on that scene when Frank & Valentina start making out, Tricky's jam "Hell is Around The Corner" starts playing. It really makes you wonder what tune it is, it fits perfect & turns the scene into fire. "Hell is Around The Corner" "Hell.
