Name: DJ Shadow KMEL Mix #2 (1991) by DJ Shadow
Duration: 38 min 53 s
Description: "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

Solid Steel in association with Serato (31st August) 3 years ago Solid Steel DJs Cheeba, Moneyshot and Food had the idea of collaborating on a version of the Beastie Boys‘ ‘Paul’s Boutique’ album made entirely from the original sample sources, shortly after Moneyshot aired his mix of their ‘Check Your Head’ album in the same way. 

Finally the result is here, titled ‘Caught In The Middle Of A 3-Way Mix’ - each of them have taken 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.

The mix was over half way completed when they heard the tragic news of MCA‘s death in May so the impetus to finish it was instantly doubled and new meaning given to the project. It goes without saying that this is also a tribute to Adam Yauch and the legacy he left behind and we hope it will be embraced by Beastie fans around the globe.

Solid Steel Radio Show 31/8/2012 Part 1 + 2 - DJ Cheeba + DJ Moneyshot + DJ Food

Recorded July 17, 2010 for Cinespia's screening of "Saturday Night Fever" at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.  Cut Chemist mixes up party time classics from 1973-1979.

Cut Chemist -Disco is Dead (1973-1979)

"When DJ's have an album project dropping, there's always tons of requests to supply exclusive mixes to various radio shows, and it can be daunting to accomplish them all. This mix seems to incorporate a fair chunk of my live show at the time, a sure sign that I was already out touring to support my record 'The Private Press.'"- DJ Shadow

From The DJ Shadow Archives - Mary Anne Hobbes Mix (2002)

Solid Steel (24th May) Following on from last year's treatment of 'Paul's Boutique' (by DJ Food, Cheeba and Moneyshot), United States of Audio does the same with De la Soul's groundbreaking album 3 Feet High and Rising. It's not just a mix, but more like an audio documentary about an album that is also about to celebrate it's 25th anniversary. In his own words;
'Several years in the making and including around 100 tracks, this is my personal tribute to De La Soul's '3 Feet High and Rising'. Using original sample sources, album tracks, interviews and rarities, 'How High's The Water Mama' tells the story of one of hip hop's most influential albums.
When De La Soul's debut album dropped in 1989 I was ten years old. Yet, by some stroke of amazing good fortune a cassette copy of '3 Feet High and Rising' found its way into my hands thanks to my best mate's older brother (though I'm pretty sure said brother had no idea of this fact!). The music was a revelation and had a significant influence in shaping my musical tastes - in fact I can't think of any other album that has had such a profound effect on me as this one. Thus '3 Feet High and Rising' holds a special place in my musical affections. Now, some twenty-five years after its original release, it's time to pay my respect to Pos, Dove, Mase, and Prince Paul...'

Respect and thanks to DJ Moneyshot for providing the original inspiration for the mix, Strictly Kev for sample sourcing, design work and general encouragement, DJ Cheeba for keeping me on my toes, Chris Binstead (wherever you may be) for his great taste in music and for unwittingly exposing my young ears to '3 Feet High and Rising' in the first place, and of course, to Dave Jolicoeur, Kelvin Mercer, Vincent Mason and Paul Huston without whom none of this would be possible.

Solid Steel Radio Show 24/5/2013 Part 1 + 2 - United States of Audio

"For a brief time beginning in early 1991, for one hour a month, I was able to command the airwaves of the largest urban radio station in San Francisco...and my agenda was to bring the real.  These were among the first all-rap (no R&B, no crossover) to ever air on commercial radio in the Bay Area.  It was made on my 4-track cassette recorder, and I threw the kitchen sink at it.  Dedicated to my mixshow heroes who came before me: Michael Erickson, Dave Moss, Theo, Cameron Paul, Alexander Mejia, and King Tech."- DJ Shadow

DJ Shadow KMEL Mix #2 (1991)

I was recently asked to play a night called Classic Material in London. The idea for the club is to give each month over to a year from Hip Hop's past and only play tracks released during it. I was given 1989 and this set was all done from original vinyl, clicks, jumps and all.
