Different When It's Silent
Nearly three decades after redefining modern music with Maxinquaye, Tricky returns with Different When It's Silent, his fifteenth studio album and first full-length release under his own name in six years.
Released via his own False Idols label, the legendary Bristol artist and producer reconnects with the distinctive sonic language that has shaped his work since his groundbreaking 1995 debut, while continuing to push his sound into new territory.
Across fourteen tracks, Different When It's Silent blends skeletal blues, brooding electronics, distorted guitars and stark hip-hop rhythms into a record that feels simultaneously stripped-back and expansive. The album moves effortlessly between genres and moods while maintaining the restless experimentation, tension and atmosphere that have made Tricky one of the most singular voices in contemporary music.
Rather than revisiting past successes, Tricky builds upon the foundations of his earlier work, creating a direct and focused collection that feels both timeless and unmistakably modern. The result is one of the most cohesive and powerful statements of his later career.
Few artists have shaped the landscape of trip-hop, alternative hip-hop and experimental electronic music as profoundly as Tricky. With Different When It's Silent, he delivers a compelling reminder that artists who create their own musical language never fall out of time.
