DJ SHADOW'S 4-TRACK ERA COLLECTION (1990-1992)

Ok B-Boys and B-girls, here is a very fresh, very good taste of DJ Shadow's early work on the wheels of steel during his time at KMEL, one of the first Bay Area Station to blast real Hip Hop back in the day.

If you're a DJ, you totally need this. It is impossible to buy this boxset (unless you wanna spend stupid money on Ebay). There were only 200 of this beast produced! The individual components came as bonuses with t-shirts purchased from DJ Shadow's web store. So unless you were a voracious t-shirt fiend with a DJ Shadow fetish, or an obsessive trainspotter, you probably don't have this yet.

There is some very deft mixing on display here and a fine selection of those dusty, Golden Age jams we love so well. Grab this one for sure. Your Zune or your I-pod will thank you later.

Please support the Arts with your financial love. DJ Shadow has a damn fine web store. If you have downloaded his Music in the past, you should really show him some love. This message is especially directed at you DJ's out there who are making money playing this Music. Don't be an ungrateful little bitch, and never forget about Karma.

Stay Elevated!
