a lot of overlap with Massive Attack
Hird - OK, jazz-forward. A more electro track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7clHe0NgEIQ
The Funky Lowlives - Off-putting vocals, busy productions that aren't very downtempo
Sofa Surfers - Minimal, some tracks could be called dub; not a fan of the vocals
Soma Sonic - lean but pleasant
The Karminsky Experience - retro instrumentation
Zimpala - Jazzy, moody and complex
Marsmobil - Bossa-nova meets artsy Italians, a little too edgy
Air - very familiar (Playground Love, La Femme d'argent), soundtrack of The Virgin Suicides
Supreme Beings of Leisure - dub leaning, vocal heavy
Soulstice - Classic vocal trip-hop soul
Ursula 1000 - Lounge-retro, more upbeat; reminds me of Dee-Lite
I already knew Bitter:Sweet and have some of their music
Conjure One - related to Delerium
Esperanza Spalding
Robert Cray
Unknown Mortal Orchestra
RAC
Emancipator
Chromatics?
