I've been getting in to artists like Bonobo, Flying Lotus, RJD2, Samiyam and J Dilla lately. I stumbled across Bonobo's album 'Black Sands' playing in HMV and I had to inquire about what it was.
I'm not sure how to distinguish triphop from related genres like hip-hop.
What other artists should I look for? I'm a bit of a n00b to the genre at the moment.
Can you please guide me in the direction of some good triphop artists?
My favourite 'triphop' (whatever it's called) tracks as of now.

thanks for letting me know about black sands. I started off with DJ Krush he's probably my favorite artist of all time i have almost every album including oumupo 6 which is probably the strangest album i've ever heard and seen ever.
and this whole album is sick as fuck!
EDIT: lol i mean bonobo kiara i was lookin at image on the video
I love RjD2. That song Weather people is tight. Cage raps over it

in terms of instrumental hip hop / trip hop, j dilla is the one
check out his album 'donuts'
also, check out the stuff coming out from the Odd Future collective from America, so sick. Tyler The Creator's beats are off the chain - check:
also, bit of shameless self promotion, i've recently moved over from dubstep to producing experimental hip hop / trip hop beats, have a listen if you have time: Soundcloud
