Project K (1991)

If you find trip hop even remotely interesting, and can bear the < $250 budget quality (not an exagg), this one's for you.

Having returned to the States from Panama, but not yet having most of my equipment (still in transit), I bought a Casio SK-5, and with my trusty Yamaha VSS-30 recorded dozens of ideas into a JVC boom box.

Always fond of this project, I never thought of it as more than a bank of unusually creative ideas for future stuff. However, the more I get into Amon Tobin, Four Tet and the like, the more I realize many of these recordings were prescient trip-hop.

You go to Project K now.

Made in March 1991, this obscure album preceded the pioneering work of DJ Shadow by two and a half years. But be warned: it's not exactly hi-fi.
