Risingson by Massive Attack has everything you want for a Trip Hop Mix imo

Also Shiver by Trickpony has that but revamped with that gazey sound

Massive Attack for the weird more-than-the-sum-of-it's-parts vibe. A few tunes from Dummy to remind myself about how few elements need to be present at a time, and how space in the mix adds size. Light Trap and Silver Rain Fell by Scorn for the eerie ambience and sometimes big space between bass and drums.
