Little Dragon: Scribble Paper
Disappointed that Morcheeba went drippy, repetitive and uninspiring after their second album? Missing the soul in trip-hop? Try Gothenburg’s Little Dragon.
Scribble Paper is the extraordinary final track on their eponymous debut, borrowing the strings and upright bass from a thousand 4 Hero songs, then diverting them through Sufi-style chill out, William Orbit bleeps and late-night jazz ramblings. Yukimi Nagano’s vocals lightens the mix, making this six minute song far too short.
