I'm not arguing that this is the era of trip-hop, of course very few albums received much popularity, just that there is loads and loads of the stuff. More than you'd know what to do with.
Oh I know, I'm well aware of it and have searched for it. When I first said there are very few albums that fit the category, I was mainly referring to trip-hop. I then went on to include instrumental hip-hop and downtempo, so yeah that expands it quite a bit . But just trip-hop itself...there may be a lot to those of us that are into it, but in the grand scheme of all recorded music in the decade, I'd say it's a small percentage.

I'd love to see your signature/links too, but the huge and obnoxious ones have caused me to block all signatures.
