Yes, these two are my favorite band [people, soulmates, partners in crime and best friends] in the whole world.

On this day in music history: April 18, 1995 - “Maxinquaye”, the debut album by Tricky is released. Produced by Tricky and Mark Saunders, it is recorded at Tricky’s home studio, Loveshack and Eastcote Studios, Notting Hill, London from Early 1994 - Early 1995. Formerly a member of the Bristol, UK sound system Massive Attack, Tricky (birth name Adrian Nicholas Matthews Thaws) strikes out on his own, with his then girlfriend Martina Topley-Bird singing most of the vocals. The albums’ title is a contraction of “Maxine Quaye”, the name of Tricky’s late mother who committed suicide when he was only four years old. The songs are a mix of live instrumentation and sampling, creating unique sonic soundscapes. It spins off two singles in the US (five in the UK) including the albums centerpiece, a cover of Public Enemy’s “Black Steel In The Hour Of Chaos” (with the abbreviated title “Black Steel”). The album proves to be highly influential, and is regarded as a landmark release in the Trip Hop/Electronica genre. “Maxinquaye” peaks at number three on the UK album chart and number eighty four on the Billboard Top 200.
