DJ Shadow (born Josh Davis) is widely credited as a key figure in developing the experimental instrumental hip-hop style associated with the London-based Mo' Wax label. He worked his way through hip-hop's early years into the heyday of crews like Eric B. & Rakim, Ultramagnetic, and Public Enemy; groups which prominently featured DJs in their ranks. Josh "Shadow" Davis had already been fiddling around with making beats and breaks on a four-track while he was in high school, but it was his move to the NorCal cow-town of Davis to attend university that led to the establishment of his own Solesides label as an outlet for his original tracks. Hooking up with Davis' few b-boys (including eventual Solesides artists Blackalicious and Lyrics Born) through the college radio station, Shadow began releasing the Reconstructed From the Ground Up mix tapes in 1991 and pressed his 17-minute hip-hop symphony "Entropy" in 1993. His tracks spread widely through the DJ-strong hip-hop underground, eventually catching the attention of Mo' Wax. Shadow's first full-length, Endtroducing..., was released in late 1996 to immense critical acclaim in Britain and America. Preemptive Strike, a compilation of early singles, followed in early 1998. Later that year, Shadow produced tracks for the debut album by U.N.K.L.E., a long-time Mo' Wax production team that gained superstar guests including Thom Yorke (of Radiohead), Richard Ashcroft (of the Verve), Mike D (of the Beastie Boys), and others. His next project came in 1999, with the transformation of Solesides into a new label, Quannum Projects. Nearly six years after his debut production album, the proper follow-up, The Private Press, was released in June 2002. The following year Shadow released a mix album, Diminishing Returns and in 2004 he released a live album and DVD, Live! In Tune and on Time. In 2006 he released another long awaited full-length album "The Outsider," which featured rising Bay Area Hyphy rappers including Keak Da Sneak and E-40. "The Outsider" also featured a single with Q-Tip (of A Tribe Called Quest). Between September 2007 and November 2008 Shadow released the volumes of "4-track Era Collection," a series of his earliest recordings. The 4-Track Era project was exclusively available through his web store, ShopDjShadow.com. In the midst of all of these solo projects, DJ Shadow collaborated with fellow hip-hop DJ Cut Chemist. Together they created a series of mixes that fuse soul, funk, and rock, in the framework of a cohesive concept involving using only 45 rpm records (7 inches). These mixes include Brainfreeze, Product Placement, and The Hard Sell.

Egal ob die Temperatur draußen hier zu Lande immer weiter steigt oder fällt, bietet die Elektroküche wie immer am Wochenende ein heißes Programm! Es heißt wieder mal “Technotized“ in den heiligen Hallen des elektronischen Underground Club’s in Köln! Am 18.07. sind 2 Jungs aus dem Westwald zu Gast: Mika und Chief! Die beiden Veranstalten schon seit Jahren im Betzdorfer Club Help und anderen Locations der Region ihre Hyaene-Parties und überzeugen immer mit einer sehr angenehmen Mischung von Minimal House bis Techno, perfekt gemixt und vorgetragen! Aus dem Grund können sie eine große Fangemeinde ihr Eigen nennen und wir dürfen gespannt sein was die beiden für uns aus ihren Plattenkisten und Laptop’s zaubern werden. Außerdem werden die beiden E-Küche-Residents Dompe & Jagger ihr neues Projekt, COTEK vorstellen. COTEK ist das neue Produzenten-Projekt der rheinTime Records Crew (Jagger, Chisee & Dompe)! Die beiden werden an diesem Tag mit 2 Mixern und 4 Plattenspielern die Nadel und die Luft brennen lassen. Bequemes Schuhwerk wird empfohlen!!!

The Paleolithic hunters who painted the unsurpassed animal murals on the ceiling of the cave at Altamira had only rudimentary tools. Art is older than production for use, and play older than work. Man was shaped less by what he had to do than by what he did in playful moments. It is the child in man that is the source of his uniqueness and creativeness, and the playground is the optimal milieu for the unfolding of his capacities.
