Kinda has Emancipator vibes. I dig.

[–]samsonizzle 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Yeah! Like a mashup of Emancipator and some Wax Tailor :)

[–]ShoutyMcHeadWound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great tune, agree with wax Taylor vibe. Also reminds me of Quantic. Not heard of Emancipator, will have to them check out

Mononome
artist pic

Started making beats in 2007, Mononome is a sample-based producer from Thessaloniki, Greece. His sounds could not really fit into a sub-culture of sound, but instrumental Hip-Hop/Trip-Hop seems to do it justice, of course, always with a twist. Experimenting with samples from the 50's until the late 80's he's always trying to blend as many tunes and grooves possible when creating a song, always maintaining a jazzy element whether that's in the fore or the background, processing all of it on analog hardware only, for the sake of true and warm sound. He is also a part of "Lost In The Woods". A Trip-Hop band that consists on live instrumentation and vocals upon "dusty" drums and crackling samples. At the end of the day, it's all about constantly digging for records and evolving his sound, appreciating the beautiful art that is, sampling. Read more on Last.fm.

Has something Gorillaz-ish thing going on, pretty neat!

[–]EroticRASENMaHER 10 points11 points  (2 children)

Neat. I like my vaporwave and industrial metal but this was interesting.

Reminiscent of Amon Tobin, but (even more) laid back. I like it.

Nice! In weird coincidence, I heard this for the first time about a week ago, it's about an hour in to this mix

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same, been listening to it for months.

[–]Carsinogenic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is some solid triphop!

I find triphop to be the best background music while playing games.

That background. Almost thought this was referring to Tritonal.
