i too think that the 'old skool' trip hop is the best... both massive attack and portishead should release an album this year, so let's hope it clicks and we get to listen to something new. i'm more than eager to listen to the portishead one as they released their last studio album 10 years ago... and i'm sure that massive attack aren't going to disappoint me, i really loved the more electronic direction of '100th window' and the 'unleashed/danny the dog' soundtrack was really nice too.
as for acid jazz, it's a bit hard to classify. when i was looking for acid jazz stuff, the artists are usually labeled as being 'trip hop', 'nujazz' and other genres too, so it's a bit hard to say what 'pure' acid jazz really is. anyway, i really like kyoto jazz massive, although it seems their work is mostly remixing. worth checking out though. another one who comes to mind is yukihiro fukutomi, i quite liked the album i've heard (love each other).
wikipedia has a list of acid jazz artists too, so that might be a place to start too...

Please tell me more about those albums, I didn't hear anything about that. Also, I've been wanting to get 100th Window, how would you rate it compared to the older albums. Also Portishead, I must say, is a bit too...."dark" for me. But I'm still looking forward to a new album.
Acid jazz....I already checked the wikipedia list, and they had a crapload of artists that were labeled as a anything but acid jazz...also Amazon is not good at all for shopping by genre.
Kyoto Jazz Massive....I've only heard single tracks so far, but I'll have to check them again, see if I like it.
And does anyone have recommendations for Drum&Bass? Preferably the 'slower' kind...
