DJ Shadow, widely acknowledged as a crucial figure in the development of experimental, instrumental hip-hop, has returned with ‘The Mountain Will Fall’ via Mass Appeal Records [and Believe Digital in France], his first full length release since 2011. The 12-track album finds DJ Shadow exploring new realms in addition to the deep samples and kinetic soundscapes that helped to launch his career 20 years ago. On ‘The Mountain Will Fall’ he’s shifted further toward original composition, a vast experimentation of beats and textures, synthesizers and live instruments including horns and woodwinds. The album features Run The Jewels, Nils Frahm, Matthew Halsall, Ernie Fresh and more.

"Occasionally, I make a beat that demands a specific vocal treatment and  attitude. In the case of 'Nobody Speak,' I wasn't going to settle for anyone other than Run The Jewels; in my mind, it was them or no one. Fortunately, they  agreed, and they took the track to a place I could never get to on my own. That's the definition of a rewarding collaboration." – DJ Shadow

"Shadow is a legend and a friend. When he makes music he often changes music forever.  When he asked us to jump on the record we didn't blink.” 
– El-P of Run The Jewels

Do Not Look Down

MESHUGGAH - Do Not Look Down

im staring at the sun it all begins to click
bono is a cunt bono is a prick
when im lookin at the world it hits me like a brick
bono is a cunt bono is a prick
callin him a saint are ye that fuckin thick
bono is a cunt bono is a prick
Even Better Than the Real Thing i think im gettin sick 
bono is a cunt bono is a prick
bono is a cunt bono is a prick
bono is a cunt bono is a prick
bono is a cunt bono is a prick
bono is a cunt bono is a prick



in the depths of despair he cashed another cheque
a moralising mantra manifesto effect
his head in the clouds as he stares at the sun
a makeshift clown master of another pun
as he reasons aloud that he'd sup with the devil
breathin aloud proud thinking hes a rebel
polarisin protest claims of representing
speaking to the great man that fuckers unrelenting 
the tax breaks withered he sought another nation
took his money on the plane to financial elevation
damn sticking up for his fellow man
by telling you what you should do while he pockets all he can
a million dollar industry comin out the crack
got the crumbs from your table hes bailin out the back
with the cash in a big sack cackling his claptrap
your worshipping that prick dont you know yer gettin laughed at



 

 

the bespectacled fly in the ointment dirtied the page
in the name of love hugging himself on stage
a rock star whose double standards are his biggest hit
have you still not found what your looking for you hypocrite
all the adulation you garner from the herd as they swallow
your horseshit singing i will follow
bono said this bono said that
bonos just a dirty little shit with a hat
as he points at you the self appointed whose
a buccaneer of the free marketeer point of view
cause when it comes to who is gonna pay say uh oh
we all know what it means when you claim its pro bono
cause what you represent they all sing it from above
on the pulpit you scream with a dream one love
for the 1 percent nation
the same benefits his anti-poverty foundation
starstruck stars fuck equality sure
starbucks harvesting the enlightenments cure
easy cotton pickins libertarian mockery

of an establishmentarian idiocracy





the attention seeker who speaks for the rest
we are so gullible we are so blessed
while these leaders of men clamber about their prop
grasping the hand for a photo-op
while he stands on the podium learn how to count
how many cunts in the crowd heard his sermon on the mount
what a great man he'll sort it all out
whether with or without you his big fuckin mouth
will speak with devout sentiments of false praise
as he moves his cash about in mysterious ways
he'd drop the debt but keep the people restrained
its easy to forget where the streets have no name
but when he campaigns who really benefits
i'll sing a beautiful day if that prick ever quits
so next time you talk shit just reach for the bogroll
remember just like bono u2 can be an arsehole
