About DJ Shadow celebrates 30 years of Endtroducing.....
DJ Shadow is the Northern California producer Josh Davis. Endtroducing....., released on James Lavelle's Mo' Wax label in 1996, was built largely on an Akai MPC60 sampler and a pair of turntables, from records he dug out of second-hand bins, and it was later recognised as the first album made entirely from samples.
Tracks such as 'Midnight in a Perfect World', 'Building Steam with a Grain of Salt' and 'Organ Donor' moved instrumental hip-hop toward something slower and more cinematic, full of film-score strings, drum breaks and stray spoken voices. This anniversary show returns to that record and the methods behind it.
