TRIP HOP -- DOWN TEMPO -- LOUNGE MUSIC -- WHY AREN'T YOU LISTENING?! STONERS?

This year has been busy for me so were expecting great things!

 In my endeavors to lead a positive life and inspire others I've stumbled upon some incredible music.

 The category is TRIP HOP and it may very well be the most soothing music I've ever heard.

 Trip hop is a genre of electronic music that originated in the early 1990s in the United Kingdom, especially Bristol. Deriving from "post"-acid house, the term was first used by the British music media and press as a way to describe the more experimental variant of breakbeat which contained influences of soul, funk and jazz. It has been described as "Europe's alternative choice in the second half of the '90s", and "a fusion of hip hop and electronica until neither genre is recognisable.^" Trip hop music fuses several styles and has much in common with other genres; it has several qualities similar to ambient music and its drum-based breakdowns share characteristics with hip hop. It also contains elements of R&B, dub and house, as well as other electronic music. Trip hop can be highly experimental in nature

 For this post I'm going to focus on one of my personal favorite TRIP HOP artist:

 FKA Twigs. (the beautiful young lady above)

Tahliah Barnett (born 16 January 1988), known as FKA twigs, is a British musician and dancer originally from Gloucestershire and currently based in London. She became known as Twigs for the way her joints crack. She affixed the acronym FKA (Formerly Known As) to her name when another artist called Twigs complained about her use of the name. (wikipedia)

Twigs is on the Young Turks record label and is doing damage with tracks like Papi Pacify which may very well be the sexiest song I've ever heard and will definitely be added to my bedroom collecton.

I could go on and on but don't take my word for it.
Check out this song and tell me your not a instant fan!
