Tricky co-wrote and rapped on three tracks: "Daydreaming", "Five Man Army" and "Blue Lines". > ... Tricky
rapped on and co-authored a trio of tracks on Massive's alluring 'Blue
Lines' LP. And it was said that 'Aftermath' might have formed part of that
LP, and also the upcoming solo LP of former Massive man and Soul II Soul
legend Nellee Hooper. <
> He gave
them a song he'd written called 'Daydreaming' and asked if Shara Nelson
could sing. They thought it was another of Tricky's funny little plans
but when they heard the result... well, it was amazing.<

Tricky co-wrote and rapped on 'Karmacoma' (same lyrics as 'Overcome') and 'Eurochild' (some lyrics from 'Hell is round the corner'). "Eurochild
is essentially a cover version (with added lyrics by 3D and Tricky) of
a song called “Cheetah” originally performed by fellow Bristol band The
Insects. The Insects would also contribute on the production side of things
for Eurochild and also Karmacoma." > Tricky:
"I see things very differently to them and it's quite frustrating. All
I did was write lyrics and a beat was given to me to rap over. My way of
thinking was always alternative to them. One day I'll probably work with
them again but there's animosity between us... I've got animosity towards
them for saying they co-wrote 'Karmacoma' when I did all the music and
most of the words, and they've got animosity towards me for doing my own
thing. It's something you can't put your finger on." <

This is an unreleased song from DJ Milo and Tricky, you can listen to it on YouTube (thanks to Ferdinand!). I don't know the year and label of it, but guessing from the catalogue number it was released on Tricky's own label Durban Poison, as it has a similar catalogue number as "Can't Freestyle" (DPRO WL 12002). So I'm also guessing that it was released shortly before Can't Freestyle, probably also in 1998. The vinyl is clear and comes in a standard black die cut cover. See scans of the vinyl here. |

Although it doesn't say on the vinyl I'm pretty sure that the label is Durban Poison and the release year is 1998. It has a similar catalogue number as "God's Bass" and "Can't Freestyle", and at least the latter was definitely released in 1998. So this was probably released shortly afterwards. Also the b-side "We know" was released in 1998 on the Half-Baked soundtrack and another Grace Jones collaboration ("Cradle to the Grave", see below) was also released in 1998. DJ Milo also lists this on his website, but with the year 1997. The vinyl is clear and comes in a standard white sleeve and black cover. See scans of the vinyl here. There are unofficial vinyls existing with the numbers 12001 ("Can't Freestyle"), 12002 ("God's Bass") and 12004 ("Clandestine Affair"). So I wonder: what is 12003???? > ... A

This song by Tricky and Martina Topley-Bird is unreleased so far!!! It was probably recorded for Quixotic, but then didn't make it to the album. This CD is a promo double CDR, I bought mine at eil.com (but it's sold out now). |

_
The Grace Jones track has vocals by Tricky, it was already released in 1998 on a white label (see above) as The Hurricane Mix #1, just the ending is a bit different. It was then later released on Grace Jones' solo album "Hurricane" in 2008 (see below) in a totally different mix. |

Warrior Charge
are Perry Melius (drums) and Wayne Nunes (bass), who have played with Tricky
live and in the studio for about 10 years! Also Hawkman is featured on
the album (track "The Hawk"), who was Tricky's vocalist in 2001. I've listed
the tracks from the Japanese version, because it was released earlier.
The UK version has a slightly different order of tracks (see discogs)
and instead of the song "Where have you been (feat. Noel McKoy)" it has "Bad Fruit (feat. Jeb Loy Nichols and Shaila Prospere)".

Grace Jones - Hurricane CD / Wall Of Sound WOS050CD / 3. Novembrr 2008 |
|
|||||||||||||||||||||
_
The song "Hurricane" was already recorded back in 1998 and released on a whilte label (see above) as a dance mix. It was called "From cradle to the grave" in these times (because that's part of the lyrics). Who did the mixes is a bit of a mystery, because sometimes a DJ Emily is mentioned, but the same mix is also released on a Danny Tenaglia remix album (see above). The song has vocals by Tricky and is written by Grace Jones and Tricky. |

Sinusoidal feat. Tricky: Come To Me Like A Bird not officially released /18. July 2012 | |||||||
_
This song is only available on Soundcloud, and though it says "from the forthcoming album" it never made it to the album ('Out Of The Wall' was released in 2011). Tricky met the Polish electronic duo at a concert (photo here on their Facebook page), obviously recorded this song and wanted to promote the band through his label False Idol. But nothing happened and this song was never officially released, unfortunately. The Tricky vocals are the same lyrics as "Come To Me" from Mixed Race, maybe exactly the same vocal? |

Massive Attack: Ritual Spirit EP digital download / Virgin Records / 28. January 2016 12" Europe / Virgin Records VST 2129 / 4. March 2016 (lim. heavyweight grey vinyl) |
|
||||||||||||
_
This is the first track Tricky did with Massive since 1994! Probably it was recorded in 2012 in Paris, as 3D posted this picture with him and Tricky recording. In an interview with Resident Advisor
Tricky said that he is thinking about letting them release the track or
not. Obviously he decided to do it! Tricky performed the track
live with Massive Attack in Berlin on February 18, as a guest at the
Massive Attack concert. You can watch their performance on You Tube.
The day before they also played in Berlin, but without Tricky. Martina
took over his part with different lyrics, you can watch that video here. |

Massive Attack: Ritual Spirit EP (lim. 12") lim. 12" (300 copies) / Virgin Records VST 2129 / 3. February 2016 |
|||||||||||||
_
This
is the first track Tricky did with Massive since 1994! It was released
on January 28 as a digital download (see above). On
February 3 it was released physically on a very limited 12", which has a complicated story behind it: The release is
limited to 300 copies: 200 were sold at the launch of the Ritual Spirit
exhibition at the Lazarides Editions gallery in London on February 3, with 4
different sleeves (so each sleeve-design limited to 50). These 200 were
hand-finished by 3D and therefore each sleeve is unique. Here you can read about this event and see some photos of 3D working on the sleeves, also here. The exhibition was then moved to The Store in Berlin from February 17 to 20, where the other 100 were sold, as you can here (Massive Attack played two gigs in Berlin on February 17 and 18). |

album by Belarus rapper Tony Tonite has one track with Tricky's vocals.

You can buy the album on iTunes or other places or listen to the whole album on Soundcloud. Here is the official website of Tony Tonite, here is his Facebook page and here is a photo with him and Tricky back in 2014. |

There are no Tricky vocals on there, but the b-side uses the instrumental of "Take It There", which is also written by Tricky (released in january, see above). That's why he's credited as a writer here, too ("written by Thaws, Dickinson, Massiah, Del Naja"). The vinyl is labeled wrong, so the b-side is labeled as the a-side and viceversa, as you read in the comments on discogs.com. This vinyl is limited to 1.000 copies: 300 (numbered) were sold at their Bristol show on September 3, 700 (unnumbered) were sold later online, as you can also read on discogs.com: "Limited to 300 hand-numbered copies sold exclusively at the Massive Attack The Downs concert Bristol UK, Saturday 3rd September 2016. Due to poor weather conditions at the concert the remaining vinyl were later sold at Friendly Records and Idle Hands (both independent record shops in Bristol) for the same price of £20.00 and limited to one per person. A further 700 un-numbered copies (Massive Attack Feat. James Massiah* - Dear Friend) were later sold through The Vinyl Factory website on 30 Sep 2016, stating this is limited to 1000 copies." The vinyl was sold at the Vinyl Factory for £20, but of course it sold out in a few hours. A digital version will probably be released later, as you can read here. |

You can listen to the album on Spotify, Deezer or other platforms following this link or buy it at iTunes, the official webshop or other places. You can also listen to the track "Bleed Away" on You Tube (but it doesn't work in Germany, so I can't check). There is also a 2CD digipak version, the second CD contains Instrumentals of all the tracks except the Intro. The webshop HHV says: "The Deluxe Digipack Edtion contains a 12 page booklet and a special packaging". There is also a special double LP edition with a gatefold cover, coloured vinyl and a slipmat (see discogs here). |
