Well, this is an unexpected pleasure. A brand new DJ Shadow EP.

I still regard this tune as one of DJ Shadow's finest moments.

Definitely one of the highlights from the new album. It's an inspired collaboration.

DJ Shadow has a new album 'The Mountain Will Fall' coming out shortly and this is one of the first tracks released from it. It's a very glitch-hop heavy collaboration with classical composer and pianist Nils Frahm. I like it a lot but then again, I'm very partial to a bit of glitch-hop.

Still sounds so fresh, gotta love proper turntable scratching.

This has popped up a few times on my iPod recently and was a track that I overlooked to a large extent when I first heard this on the 'I Gotta Rokk' EP. Mainly because of the excellent title track and my favourite 'I've Been Trying' tended to see me rewinding back to the beginning at the end of these tunes rather than doing the whole EP justice. I've rectified this now but the oversight just goes to show how fickle I can be sometimes to my own detriment.

The song samples Edgar Varèse's 'Poème Électronique' and I'm very surprised to see that it's got a bit of a 'sample' pedigree with other bands who have also borrowed from the album including Meat Beat Manifesto, Herbie Hancock and Amon Tobin.

I haven't heard this in a while. It's a great tune and awesome video.
