Let's Get Killed

by David Holmes

The 1059th greatest album of all time

Let’s Get Killed is a 1997 album by Northern Irish DJ and producer David Holmes. It blends downtempo, breakbeat, trip hop and techno textures into sample-based grooves with sparse instrumentation and cinematic touches. Holmes used field recordings and street voices captured in New York to give the tracks a gritty, filmic atmosphere that balances club-ready rhythms with moody, soundtrack-like arrangements, and helped establish his reputation for cinematic electronic production.
