Classic Mixes: Massive Attack “Essential Mix on BBC” (1994)

Looking back on the early 90’s you can really appreciate how glorious a period it was: not only was in the pinnacle of hip-hop and r&b but also trip-hop, acid jazz, drum & bass and amazing house music too.

So, this one is not quite twenty just yet, a 19 year old mix from Bristol’s kings of trip-hop Massive Attack that aged like a fine scotch. Released in 1994 on BBC’s Essential Mix series the 2 hour long trip featuring tons of classics and lots of tracks you forgot about!
