you end up having bad taste....

I dig DJ Shadow. Endtroducing is fantastic, the other stuff is good, and the Outsider just confuses me, still.

Also really like his stuff with Cut Chemist, the 7" sets. Brainfreeze, Product Placement, and the Hard Sell, if you haven't already.

^Yeah those are awesome. His early stuff with the Solesides Crew is also excellent and worth checking out: I love the beats he does to Lateef's The Wreakoning, for example.

The new album was a brave attempt

At least he's trying to move forward in new directions and make fun music still.

I agree, not too crazy about the most recent

Everyone goes on about entroducing, which is fair as it is great but I also love "The private press"

DJ Shadow is good stuff. His collaborations with Cut Chemist are
pretty good, esp The Hard Sell, though I don't really like Cut
Chemist. J5 is dope, though.

I've been trying to get David Holmes Bow Down To The Exit Sign
and DJ Shadow vs. Ian Brown "Dolphins were Monkeys" with not
much luck. Could someone possibly help me out?

DJ Shadow is the Greatest.
 

To all those hip hop fans out there! Just wanna share my undying love for DJ Shadow an' his music. I think he's a true genius, not just in the hip-hop (or some might argue the trip-hop or ambient) world but in music just in general.

I just saw his Live in Tune and in Time DVD. And it's mindblowing. The guy's a bloody genius.

One of ma favorite songs from him would be..

Blood on the Motorway .. and a more beatsy one would be Walkie Talkie.

DJ SHADOW RULES

Have any of guys heard his Essential Mix for BBC Radio One? I think it was in 2003.

It's crazy. That's how i first heard about him, so good..

only song of his I've heard is Organ Donor but I loved it
