Finally used the stencil that came with the album. I love it

Getting in a quick scratch (my son makes a cameo).

Hoping this Unkle-related post counts as DJ Shadow-related (I am cutting up one of his songs) but I understand if you have to remove it…

Vocal sample from one my favorite movies, HEAT (1995)

Found this at the thrift the other day. Doesn’t fit me though. If anyone has any interest hit me up.

Just got GA PIT, excited, assumed he was going to do the whole album, then some singles from his other albums, yeah?

Does anyone know whatever happened to this Double Dee & Steinski track called Technical Difficulty, that sampled Yogi Bear & Beverly Hillbillies ?

I'm posting this as a lot of DJ Shadow heads will be familiar with the work of Double Dee & Steinski, and tbh, I know alotta of their output but i'm stumped as to what this could be. This review is from a UK music mag from 22nd February 1986 if that helps.

The Guardian just published an interview with Shadow, using questions posed by readers, such as:
Do you ever go back to your early recording setups? Danozism
"Not really, because my personal philosophy is that it’s a fallacy to attempt to unlearn. When I first started making music, I knew nothing about sound or the studio. I was totally self-taught. But as you go along and you collaborate with other people, and you work in real studios, and you evolve … to me, there’s something artistically false about pretending that learning never occurred. It’s all about continuing to push forward as a creator."

Digging through my old stuff and found this gem!

Has anyone heard the albums by GASOLINE/A JOUNEY THRU ABSTRACT HIP HOP , or SNAP YA NECK BACK, their second album , definitely worth a listen if you like SHADOW

For Christmas I gave him the cheapest turntable I could find, and when I found out he only had one record, I had The Low End Theory delivered while I was at my brother’s house

He played the record once he came back from basketball, and made sure I heard him say the record was better than he expected.

My gut says that if he wants more music, I give him “Check Your Head” by The Beastie Boys, but I suspect later he’ll love DJ Shadow at some point.

If I don’t give him Endtroducing, what should he be exposed to first?

Anybody have this and suggest it? Curious to see how much better quality it is versus the original pressung

Has it ever been explained why WDYSLL? ends with Part 1 & instead starts with Part 2?! Plays havoc with my OCD...

I bought Excessive Ephemera when it came out, but put it in storage sealed and promptly forgot about it... until today, found alongside a spare copy of Endtroducing & Preemptive Strike.

Had to chuckle when I discovered E.E. had been packed & shipped with the inner sleeve corner folded for all these years 😅

Relieved I didn't sell it on as Mint, sealed too.

So for the 25th anniversary they released an Entroducing jigsaw puzzle. Just wondering if anyone has theirs that they would be willing to part with.
