Tricky, uno dei maestri del trip-hop, ha annunciato un nuovo progetto musicale in collaborazione con il produttore parigino Mike Theis, dal nome Theis Thaw. Il duo è pronto a pubblicare il suo primo album, intitolato “Fifteen Days”, il prossimo 25 ottobre sotto l’etichetta False Idols, di proprietà dello stesso Tricky.
The record, recorded in just fifteen days, features contributions from French singer Rosa Rocca-Serra and two rising artists from the False Idols roster: Run Red and Lucy La Dusk.
Ahead of the album, Theis Thaw have already released two new singles, "Frozen Rivers" and "Fly To Ceiling", which you can listen to below.
With African, Irish and Jamaican blood running through his veins, Adrian Thaws aka Tricky is a bluesman on loan to the rave generation, able to filter and manipulate the most disparate material. Heir to the entropic disorder of Sly Stone, Tricky remains a central hub of last century's music. While the aura of Massive Attack floated in the ether as a dreamy sound-system hypothesis, and Portishead confined their work of "active recycling" to lounge-jazz, soul and soundtracks for spy movies, Tricky is the black hole, the emotional-semiotic dumping ground of an entire sonic civilization. The ideal point of contact between dub, hip-hop, funk, electro, blues, gothic, synth-pop, indie-rock and much more. A devilish cherub who mocks labels and delights in keeping one foot in two camps ("high" art and pop culture, noise and melody). An isolated and otherwise unimaginable case of an "isolationist" b-boy. The most avant-garde "thing" ever spawned by the Bristol trip-hop scene.
