#789 Tricky – Maxinquaye

Posted on by anoceanroars

Trip-hop seems to be on the uprise in 1995. Collaborative member of Massive Attack, Tricky released his debut album Maxinquaye in 1995. He discovered vocalist Martina Topley-Bird and she was his main vocalist for his album. I have not heard this album, but I have heard some of Tricky’s music over the years.

My favourite song on the album is “Hell Is Round the Corner“. Oddly, I know this song well, but I am not sure how I know it. I also like “Aftermath”, “Pumpkin”, and “Ponderosa”.

Trust me and skip “Abbaon Fat Tracks”. It is disgusting.

Otherwise, I like the album. I think it was a great debut album, except it kind of stumbles toward the middle and end. 7/10.

…and i hate writing about myself. It feels awkward. Or i am a bit awkward and rather not write about it. i have not got a clue where to begin or end… …at this very moment i am a recent graduate of Colorado State University. i live in Longmont, Colorado, which i next to Boulder. Boulder is where all hipsters live. See, this crap is rather boring. i moved here from Budapest, Hungary four years ago, well, actually that is sort of a lie. i was living in Lyon, France one year before i moved to Colorado and before that Hungary. i like to travel or move. i keep moving… i have many interest besides moving: writing, watching, taking, listening and reading (stories, films, photographs, music and books).
