Isn't there just a delicious layer of irony in the fact that one of the absolute greatest innovators and experimentalists in the North American dance scene happens to be a born Englishman... ☕
For instance, I’d say Pink Floyd is actually less famous than Skid Row—well, maybe not *that* much less famous, at least in my book. In fact, I feel like I know Pink Floyd better than Skid Row, though that’s mostly because I haven't really kept up with Skid Row lately rather than being a huge fan of Gilmour’s work.
I did happen to hear about the band Fist once, though I'm honestly not even sure if they were a real thing or just some urban legend.
And get this—I only recently found out that Evan Seinfeld is actually the bassist for Biohazard and married to adult film star Tera Patrick, not some outlaw biker from Oz like everyone used to think. 🙏
I actually got invited to a launch party for a music video by one of our big national bands—purely by mistake, of course—simply because I happen to share a last name with the director. 🙂
But honestly, I’m probably not the best person to help you out here
Do yourself a favor and check out Howie B, Nightmares on Wax, Amon Tobin, or Baby Mammoth... though I’ll say it one more time just to be clear: the true architects of the trip hop sound were U.N.K.L.E. and the Mo'Wax label.
And please, for the love of god, stop bringing up Morcheeba—get outta here! If I hear anyone claim Morcheeba is trip hop one more time, I might actually have to throw my hands up in frustration. 🙂

I’ll be the first to admit I voted for Dark City, but man—I have to say, that Equilibrium movie you guys keep bringing up is absolute garbage. It’s honestly beyond me. I’ve actually tried starting it five different times just hoping I could finally make it to the end, but it’s just impossible. Seriously, what a waste of time.
