20 years ago, Bristol, England hip-hop crew Massive Attack released their debut album, Blue Lines, and reshaped the sound of UK electronic music forever. The album is widely regarded as the finest work to come out of the trip-hop scene (along with Portishead’s Dummy) and has been a vital discovery for new electronic music fans for two decades.

Toronto producer Egyptrixx has taken what is probably the album’s most questionable song, “Hymn of the Big Wheel” and given it a much overdo remix that adds some dirt and dust to Nelle Hopper’s classic production while retaining the optimistic ’90s rave afterglow.
