The record

Unoff. release.

Title: Portishead – Dummy
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1994, Electronic, Trip Hop, Bristol, England
Condition: New

Cultural Facts:

  1. Scene Ecology: Came from Bristol’s small, cross-genre network (club nights, sound-system culture, studio friends) alongside peers like Massive Attack/Tricky.

  2. Studio Lore: Built from loops and meticulous edits—songs assembled like film scenes, with the production process treated as the main instrument.

  3. Personal Struggle: Beth Gibbons has described severe shyness and stage fright; early shows were a fight with anxiety as the project suddenly went global.

    This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

    Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
