Endtroducing - DJ Shadow
Fuct if I can think of 10 at this time of the morning, but glad someone's mentioned DJ Shadow.
Is this lad way too clever by 'alf, or just basically shite, a chancer who's got lucky? Finally stuck Entroducing, the Outsider and Private Repress on me iPod over Xmas thinking I was gonna be dead impressed but, whilst he gets a nice groove going on occasion, I found most of it just pretentious twaddle. Think I might be missing something amazing, but not sure I can give him too many more plays before he just gets boring? Possibly I just don't get it?
Maybe got lucky with "Entroducing"; thereafter it's pretty hit and miss (and mostly miss at that)...
I would add:
Cocteau Twins, "Victorialand"*
Tindersticks, "Tindersticks" (the first one, NATCH!)*
Kid Loco, "A Grand Love Story"
The Stone Roses' debut (a bit obvious, NATCH!)
Mazzy Star, "So Tonight That I Might See"*
(* - and, frankly, everything else they've ever done)
