Name: DJ Shadow Essential Mix 2016 (Hour 2) by DJ Shadow
Duration: 1 h

One wednesday night in august 2012 I did a Ninja Tune retrospective at Faktorý Bar, RVK, playing some of my favorite tunes by my favorite label. 
Mixed on the fly with little thought going into what comes after the other, this is music to sip Indian Pale Ale to, and or porters. I also sprinkled a few tunes from friend-labels into the mix. 
Good scratches are made by the respective artists and credited dj's, shitty ones by me, and sorry about my newly-discovered delay button.

[3h 45min] Ninja Tune Retrospective; or music to drink IPA and/or porter to.

Solid Steel (6th December) It's a specially extended session this week as we prepare for the Solid Steel 25th Anniversary night in London tonight with two of the DJ's that are playing. 
DK steps up with the first part of his own retrospective on his time at Solid Steel. Having started on the show in 1997 and over 400 mixes later, here is just a few personal favourites starting in '97 with Data and the Underdog remix, aka Trevor Jackson who is another artist playing tonight. Then it's early 90's hip hop from Jeru, OC, Pharcyde and Crooklyn Dodgers, before Steve Reich and a nod to The Orb, (also playing tonight) followed by two epic vocal outings from Andreya Triana and Lamb. It's a few Jazz, Latin and African selections including the Fela cover by Johnny Rodrigues, which got DK his first offer to do a mix by Coldcut. After that we get through more gems from Caribou, Zomby, Bobby Konders, Fink, Radiohead and 3 appearances from Four Tet, our special guest tonight, before closing on the obscure Dr Philter Banx from 1975. The second half of this mix will be next week.........

All roads lead to Fire in London for the celebrations starting at 10 pm tonight. A specially recorded show is available on CD, Cassette and MiniDisc to the first 100 to arrive! Info and last few tickets here http://www.residentadvisor.net/event.aspx?491503

Solid Steel Radio Show 6/12/2013 Part 1 + 2 - DK

2013 marked the 25th Anniversary of Solid Steel when Matt Black and Jon More from Coldcut started broadcasting together on pirate Kiss FM in 1988. It's been a year long celebration and we'd like to thank all the guests who have contributed incredible mixes throughout the year. To see off the year, we asked our listeners to vote for their favourite guest mix from the last 25 years and also their favourite mixes from our resident DJ's.

Your favourite Coldcut mix was the 'Journeys by DJ Special' from 20th May 2002. The original '70 minutes of Madness' was released in 1995 and often considered "the best DJ mix album of all time" and this mix coincided with it's reissue in 2002. It features extra tracks that didn't appear on the original CD including the Coldcut rework of 'People hold on'

Unsurprisingly, the most popular mix for DJ Cheeba, DJ Moneyshot and DJ Food was their epic version of the Beastie Boys‘ ‘Paul’s Boutique’ album from 31st August 2012 made entirely from the original sample sources titled ‘Caught In The Middle Of A 3-Way Mix’ . Each of them took a third of the album to work on and combined their efforts into a mix that will make you hear it in a new way. Aside from the original sample sources they’ve included commentary from the Beasties, vintage interviews, demo versions and much more.

Finally it was the Hexstatic mix from 28th January 2011 which was your favourite, with the classic Royksopp remix of KOC, leading into the lovely electronica Two Dots by Lusine. SBTRKT's remix of Modeselektors 'Art&Cash' leads perfectly into material from Robin Hexstatic's project, plus music from  Magnetic Man, Andreya Triana and Dave Angel.

Congratulations to Daniel Westlake from Tunbridge Wells in Kent, who was the winner picked at random in the competition and will receive prizes from Novation, AIAIA, Serato and Solid Steel.

BOCA 45 DISMALAND LIVE MIX

1) Tell us a bit about yourself and your record collection.

I'm Strictly Kev aka DJ Food, I've been DJing for over 30 years now and collecting vinyl for longer. I've no idea how many records I have but it's probably in the region of 10,000 7", 12" and LPs plus lots of other odd formats that I collect as well as just the music. It's housed in my studio in custom built shelves that include drawers for 45s, cassettes and CDs. There's a fairly extensive article with photos on the Dust & Grooves website with a special mix of my musical influences http://www.dustandgrooves.com/djfood/


2) 45/7 is all about celebrating the 7". Can you tell us a bit about what you love about the format.

I like that the songs are short and sweet, there's no chaff so the track says what it needs to and then it's done, which is essentially what a DJ needs in today's ADD society. I like the size and weight of them compared to 12"s and LPs because I've used digital means to DJ for 8 years now and, when I do go back and play vinyl, I don't want to break my back like I used to lugging a 30 kilo record box around. 

3) One hour of vinyl goodness... can you talk us through your selection for your 45/7 mix?

There's a lot of guitars, fuzz and distortion in this one, lots of solid drums too, I'm really digging a lot of the funkier side of rock and psyche in my 45 sets and this comes out here.  Some of it is where rock and electronica cross over though so you'll have DJ Shadow remixing John Spencer Blues Explosion, Brendan Lynch's dub mixes of Paul Weller or Graham Massey's Toolshed project. There's also straight up rock by The Zutons, The Go! Team or Primal Scream and more diggers delights like The Protein Bros, Chaps and Alan Copeland. I try and have a good mix of contemporary stuff in there too, the 45 format shouldn't always be about old, hard to find stuff from the 60s and 70s, there's plenty of great new music around, just as hard to find too.

4) Where can people catch you / listen to your music? 

My Mixcloud is a good place to start https://www.mixcloud.com/strictlykev/ and I've also contributed to Coldcut's weekly Solid Steel radio show for over 20 years now, some of which are archived here on Soundcloud https://soundcloud.com/ninja-tune/sets/dj-food
You can find out where I'm playing by checking my dates on www.djfood.org

Press Cuttings (The Private Press Compacted)

"I really have no specific memory of putting this mix together, or for what purpose. Nonetheless, 'Live In NYC' is what Dat tape says, so I'll go with it. It's a decent representation of me behaving myself and in non-confrontation mode, sticking to a script and playing primarily brand new rap of the era. I remember being kind of proud of the Fantasy Three into De La intro."- DJ Shadow

DJ Shadow Spinning Live In NYC, 1996

"If you're having a difficult time identifying any of these tracks, there's a reason for that...they're all derived from vintage demo cassettes, most of which were unheard by the general public until this mix.  It's something I had been planning for some time, and it all feeds back into the 'crate digger' aesthetic I've always valued so much as a DJ.  When the mix originally aired, I had to edit some of the language, so here it is for the first time in full uncensored glory."

-DJ Shadow

DJ Shadow Essential Mix 2016 (Hour 2)

"Based on the favorable listener response to the first mix, I was invited back for more. If you thought the first mix was wild, this one is even further out there. Maybe TOO out there, based on the grumbling at the station during the first few minutes (ha). Much love to everyone at KMEL who allowed a young teenager with big ideas the opportunity to do something different."- DJ Shadow
