Opera (G-Stone/Stud!o K7)
Throughout the years, Austria has introduced the world to talents as disparate as Mozart and Falco. Today the country hosts a booming underground scene that includes Richard Dorfmeister and Rupert Huber, who have adopted the name Tosca for their classic trip hop project. On Opera, the duo builds tunes as ambitious in structure as in diversity. "Chocolate Elvis" for example, consists of vocal samples layered and blurred across a frenetic, hip hop beat. Mozart was just the beginning.
