Post by: Oklin on August 27, 2006, 02:25:10 PM
I dont even know what music genre it is.. but i love RJD2's solo albums.. "Ghostwrtier" is crazy!.. i have everything by RJD2 and DJ Shadow.. does anyone know some other artist who makes this kinda music?

Also if anyone knows of some artist/albums which is like Madlib - Shades Of Blue.. that jazz sound with a twist of hiphop is dopeness..

Yeah, he's kinda got more experimental as hes gone on, so its becoming more ambient stuff, which is still real dope, but I dunno if really what you're looking for. His first few albums are all more ambient sounds with hiphop beats kinda style, which by the way people seem to label as Trip Hop, although groups like Massive Attack and Portishead are also lumped into that.
