Hit: 3 Stars
Yeah, it's been years since any of you even thought of this guy... but, oh well, so I'm late to the party... I guess I just wasn't impressed back in the day when I was listening to techno by mr Shadow. His sound on this record is somewhat accomplished, very atmospheric, etc. It's kind of like an intersection between jazz and dnb. Unfortunately I'm not that into jazz, and the work contained here is rather on the slow-paced side. Interesting, and accomplished, no doubt. But the only song I enjoyed listening to was High Noon, a fast paced, weird show-down type rave song. Pretty fun. The production values are pretty high, so you might wanna give this a listen. The quartet `what does your soul look like' is pretty good, and atmospheric, but it just didn't hold my attention. However, it's better than a lot of dnb records, and possibly jazz records.
Preemptive Strike Poster
This set compiles much of DJ Shadow's pre-major label material in one convenient package in an attempt to foil bootleggers and bring new fans up-to-date in the curriculum. The results are naturally varied, but all point to a marvelous evolution of talent. The collection is kept together primarily by its propensity for jazzy beats and psychedelic loops. Shadow (n? Josh Davis) moves through everything from old school funk ("In/Flux") to grungy '60s-style guitar raveups ("High Noon"). The centerpiece of the set, however, is a four-part composition called "What Does Your Soul Look Like," which is likely to be the first ever entirely sample-driven rock opera. It's a brilliant piece of work, laced with intriguing sounds, sound bites, and a detectable set of motion. It is also quite possibly better than anything on the critically -acclaimed Entroducing. --Aidin VaziriDance & DJ Music CDs
