On Nov 12th, The Chambers Project opened its doors to the new gallery space in Grass Valley, CA, with the One Step Further event. 

If there was ever a seminal moment in the history of psychedelic art, “One Step Further” – the inaugural group show at the new The Chambers Project space – was it. On November 12th, the gallery became and is a professional and serious refuge, a sanctuary of credibility for New Psychedelia in a chaotic art world.

DJ's/Producers Qbert, The Gaslamp Killer, DJ Logic and A Path Untold provided the soundtrack to this landmark event. These mixes were recorded live and capture the spirit of the night. We're very excited to share them with world. 

In addition, this was the official 50 year commemorative  anniversary event of Hunter S. Thompson's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas  book release. 

Curator Brian Chambers has firmly staked his claim in the history of the genre by showing treasures from early rock music and psychedelic art: rare paintings by rock gods Jerry Garcia, and Jimi Hendrix, and original works by genius Fillmore poster designer Rick Griffin. Spectacular canvases from contemporary artists will immerse spectators in visionary landscapes of tumbling colors and shapes, toppling through space and, at times, spilling from the frames.

This was a night to remember.

DJ QBERT - ONE STEP FURTHER MIX

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

Coldcut - Breezeblock - 2001/05/28

Due to popular demand, we've pulled this one out of the archives... 

Back in 2010, Gilles Peterson recorded a special Brownswood Basement show focusing on the evolution of drum & bass through the 90s and into the 00s. It was by no means a comprehensive history of the genre, but it did represent an excellent snapshot of the tunes that struck a chord with Gilles back then. 100% vinyl (and acetates), Gilles spent the best part of a day rummaging through hundreds of records and picked out around 40 of his favourite tracks from the likes of Alex Reece, Peshay, Goldie, Drumagick, Roni Size and Photek… then @alex-patchwork got deep in the mix. Here then, is the first hour-long mix that made up that show - no links, jingles or drops - just the music. We hope you enjoy it.

DJ Food - 'Flashback Megamix' (DJ Shadow Mx2)

Back in the late 90's we were touring in N. America and Japan a lot and mixtapes were a small, cheap piece of merchandise to sell at shows so I put this collection together. Using scraps of turntable jams from Stealth, Solid Steel and various other gigs we'd been recording over the preceding years as well as answerphone messages and other miscellanea, this ramshackle collection resulted.
It's all live, virtually all improvised, there are mistakes, needle skips, sloppy scratches and bad sound quality (sound sources were from cassette or portable DAT generally). There were possibly around 500 copies made but I only had one myself. The audio for this rip was taken from the master DAT though and EQ'd and balanced in places to make it a nicer listen. The cover image of a John Coltrane painting was taken in Tortoise's kitchen in Chicago, one Sunday on a day off when PC and I were there with Bundy K Brown, hence the title.Sunday At Bundy's - DJ Food's Audio Scrapbook (side A.)

Tracklist:
1/ Starter  - (Liquid Rooms - Tokyo Nov '96) 
2/ Words I Manifest - (Liquid Rooms - Tokyo Nov '96)
3/ Here We Go, Are You Ready For Another? - (Stealth - Blue Note Dec '95)
4/ Ge' Down - (Krush & Food - Osaka Nov '96) 
5/ Don't Push Me! - (Koln '95)
6/ Give The D.J A Breakfast - (Liquid Rooms - Tokyo Nov '96)
7/ Electro Inferno - (Liquid Rooms - Tokyo Nov '96)
8/ Squarepusher vs. Strictly Pt.2 - (Solid Steel Dec '95)
9/ Crank This Mother - (Osaka Nov '96) 
10/ Idle Banter (Warwick '95)

DJ Food - Sunday at Bundy's (Side A.)

The Chemical Brothers (or Dust Brothers as they were at the time) live at The Albany, London.

Sunday 14th August 1994.

Recorded on DAT by Robin Turner.

The jump into Boops at 27.52 is because the DAT was removed in order for Tom and Ed to play music they'd made in the studio that week (instrumental of Life is Sweet often got played around this time). Any record jumps were caused by people banging into the decks, or pogoing! (I'm guilty as charged in Voodoo People). Last record cuts off due to the DAT running out. 

Big up all the Heavenly Sunday Social crew.

Enjoy x

Dj Kicks - Nightmares On Wax

For the second hour we welcome Gilles Peterson in the slot for the 25th Anniversary of Solid Steel, a DJ who (along with Coldcut) also presented a show in the 90's on Kiss FM. For this mix he's layed down a 'Brit Funk 1977 - 1982' mix, returning to a period of music that was an important part of his life growing up. Music from independent labels, some run by record shops, like the first track by Cache on Groove Records. This is followed by the classic 'Trip to your mind' by Hudson People, a record that a 15 year old Gilles Peterson caught from them in the crowd at a Purley all-dayer. Then it's more music from the likes of Freez, Atmosfear, Hi Tension, TW Funkmasters and Sun Palace, but to hear more about this mix from the man himself, check out this video he made for us- http://youtu.be/d9RU5Xmc0FE
