The Sweatbox - with Tricky

An icon of UK alternative music shares 30 minutes of selections in the Sweatbox.

Tricky is a pioneer of British hip-hop and alternative music, blending dub, experimental and post-punk styles throughout his work. He is perhaps best known for his debut 1995 album Maxinquaye, widely regarded as a genre-defining record, as well as his work with vocalist Martina Topley-Bird. His reluctance to follow commercial trend truly sets him apart from his peers, and this is evident in the eclectic selections he makes for SHERELLE's Sweatbox mix.
