I'm not sure if you're asking me or telling me but I'll say this... When artist like Portishead and Massive Attack are asked about Trip Hop they say they don't know what folks are talking about, they don't Identify with the title. It's a catch phrase to promote records sales.
I completely agree that these groups do not want to be cataloged in a musical style, and I understand, but we must try to identify a musical style to these groups for people or for labels.
It is also easier for the future purchaser of these albums to find a group with an established style.
Thank you for these important details that will help people to be open to variations of this call trip hop;)
Sterile debate which adds nothing to the pleasure of listening to music, trip hop or not!
