I need something really chilled out and rythmic. Any suggestions? The only band I know of so far is Isis. I LOVE the songs that really hit the spot, but few of theirs actually do it for me.
Otherwise my music knowledge is all around metal and hard rock... and I'm realizing right now I just need something to chill out too.
Anything that incorporates rhythmic tribal elements with modern sounds would be fantastic, but I'm open to anything really.
If you're lookin for some down tempo chill stuff, check out.
Portis Head
Massive Attack
Wolfshiem
and if your into more instrumental stuff, Lack Luster is pretty good too.
theres one song i love specifically called Dope Dreams by Mankind Liberation Front. Its the only song ive EVER heard from them, but its such a bad ass stoner song.
edit: 311 has some good chill stuff
Above and Beyond is good as well
Air is fantastic
cant ever go wrong with Bob Marley
Dispatch is nice, they arent as down tempo but i love'em
Most things by Peter Heppner (Wolfshiems lead singer) is pretty chill.
I <3's me some chill music.
edit 2: if you have aim or msn, shoot me a private message and ill send you the screen name and i can chat with you about down tempo music, i really love the stuff.
Mono, Tortoise, Red Sparowes, Do Make Say Think, The Album Leaf, Cult Of Luna, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Sigur Ros, Versoma
maybe 5ive, they are one of my favorites
Zero 7, Nightmares on Wax, Leftfield, DJ Shadow, Morcheeba...
Outta those i think the first 2 are best, atleast from what i've heard, Simple Things by Zero 7 has some good tracks and so does Carboot Soul by Nightmares on Wax
Try some chilling metal: Iced Earth, Demons and Wizards, Blind Guardian, Sonata Arctica, Theatre of Tragedy, Lacuna Coil
Or the number 1 chilling music: reggea
Try Eek-a-mouse, Dub Incorporation, Desmond Dekker, Matisyahu, Green Finance, Bob Marley, Damian Marley, ....
Boards of Canada - might have that unique sound youre after.[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrBZeWjGjl8[/YOUTUBE]
