It’s the final Trip Hop Radio LIVE for 2026 on Monday, October 19th!

WHAT IS TRIP HOP?

Imagine hip-hop beats, deep dub bass, soulful vocals, jazz influences and atmospheric electronic sounds coming together in one cinematic experience.

That’s trip hop.

The sound took shape around Bristol, England, in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. Artists like Massive Attack, Portishead and Tricky helped bring it to a wider audience.

It’s music for late-night drives, dimly lit rooms, introspective moments and dance floors that don’t need to rush.

Never heard of trip hop? Perfect. Come discover it for yourself.

Already know the sound? You know exactly why we’re doing this. ✌️
