Solid Steel Radio Show 23/8/2013 Part 3 + 4 - Boca 45

This is an amalgam of two mixes I did for Solid Steel at the end of November, 2013. Both were 30 minutes and with a similar downbeat, electronic nature. It's the sort of thing I like to listen to late at night when I'm working on designs or writing. Both appeared on separate shows but were done around the same time so I wanted to present them in one piece like this.

Tracklisting:
Rival Consoles _ Odyssey _ Erased Tapes
Spacedog & Belbury Poly _ Quiet Industry _ Ghost Box
A Thunder Orchestra _ Diabolocal Gesture _ La Musique Fait La Force
Sinoia Caves _ Naro Way _ self released
Dark Seed _ The Bell _ Ohmega
Jokers On the Scene _ Have You Said Your Prayers Today? _ Balkan Vinyl
Russ Garcia _ Lost Souls of Saturn _ Liberty
Roland Bocquet _ Exotique _ Cobra
Belbury Poly & Spacedog _ Find Me _ Ghost Box
Tomisnever _ Reach For The Dead _ mp3
V.I.V.E.K. _ Mantra _ System Music
Machinedrum _ Centre Your Love _ Ninja Tune
Sounds & Silence _ The Lyyke Wake Dirge _ Trunk
Howlaround _ Secret Songs of Savamala _ The Fog Signals
Pye Corner Audio _ The Ever Present Hum Pt.2 (excerpt) _ The Tape Worm

A Little Night Music...

So this is a mix I was asked to do for a house party that it turns out I'm not even going to, but if I say I'm going to do something, best believe I will...

The theme is simply party vibe music that the missus and I enjoy, with plenty of mashup mayhem of course. Special shouts to Mr Blennd @user9398836 and Merking 9-5 @getmerkedbruv. Loved doing this one :)

Coldcut - BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix - 29.01.2006

Solid Steel (25th April) 20 years ago Nas released his legendary Illmatic album and DJ Moneyshot has put together an outstanding tribute mix 'Nas - Half-Man Half-Amazing'. As with the previous tribute mixes for the Beastie Boys, De La Soul and Public Enemy, it's more an audio documentary threading together sample sources, interview footage and remixes alongside the original Illmatic tracks. Hear the vocabulary, the flow and the rhythm expertly delivered by Nas, backed up by the sublime production of Pete Rock, DJ Premier, Large Professor and Q-Tip, plus original samples from Lee Erwin, The Heath Brothers, Ahmad Jamal and Reuben Wilson. All this deconstructed and rebuilt by Moneyshot for another classic Solid Steel edition.

Solid Steel Radio Show 25/4/2014 Part 1 + 2 - DJ Moneyshot


This is an extended version of a mix broadcast on BBC 6 Music, 22nd Feb 2025, celebrating the first phase of Wu-Tang Clan solo & side projects, three decades later.

At the end of 1993 we entered the 36 Chambers. In the period following, before Wu-Tang Clan's second LP, the solo projects of the hip hop killa bees really took flight, initially with the RZA's side-project Gravediggaz, and Method Man's debut LP 'Tical' in 1994. Things really heated up in March 1995, with the 'Return to the 36 Chambers' from the late ODB, quickly followed by Raekwon's 'Only Built 4 Cuban Linx' in Summer and GZA's sophomore album 'Liquid Swords' in Winter, culminating with Ghostface Killah's 'Ironman' in 1996. 30 years on, BobaFatt mixes up a selection of 36 beats from these six Staten Island albums, Block Party style.

Nb: Parents, even though this one's extended it still includes clean versions throughout, because Wu-Tang is for the children, after all.
