#DJShadow’s not about to slap his face on an album cover and call it a brand. He’d rather rummage through old 8-tracks like forgotten diaries, drag Timothy Leary into a track, and remind you that The Mountain Will Fall only because he lets it.

“If your music becomes backward-looking, that’s when people start complaining about ageism,” he says. And yet here he is, living proof that sometimes the past is just raw material for the next wave.

#nowplaying DJ Shadow - Preemptive Strike

That _other_ DJ Shadow album. Personally, I like this one more, mostly because of the consistency of the beats and general flow. "Hindsight" is just so, so *crisp*.

"The tracks go off in this direction..."

DJ Shadow's album "Preemptive Strike" playing on a Denon DP-30L turntable. The cover is abstract face-like shapes in black lines and off-white and brown flats.

Maravilloso video. A veces cuesta apreciar la genialidad y la inspiración que conllevan ciertos tipos de géneros musicales. Desconocimiento de técnicas y tecnologías que se alejan mucho de los instrumentos y las partituras "clásicos" pero... vean, disfruten; un alineamiento astral irrepetible, puro amor a la música más como escuchante que como músico del genial Dj Shadow.

The uncropped cover of DJ Shadow’s first album features a blurry cat in the foreground.

Photographer Brian Cross meant to focus on the record store kitty—but accidentally measured in feet instead of meters.

Instead of a cat, we got this iconic shot of Chief Xcel and Lyrics Born (in a blond wig) on the cover of "Entroducing".

A man browses records in a store, with two others nearby and a blurred cat resting on a stack of records in the foreground. The store has dusty vibes and looks like dream location for vinyl lovers. A cropped version of this panorama photo was used on the front cover of DJ Shadow's "Entroducing" album.

Inland Empire is in the same genre as Endtroducing.

Now playing the excellent UNKLE album Psyence Fiction... well, officially it's an UNKLE album but it's pretty much a DJ Shadow album really, isn't it? 😉

Not sure how I also ended up with the Japanese edition, the completely different artwork it pretty funky, though.

#NowPlaying #UNKLE #PsyenceFiction #DJShadow

The cover art for the limited edition Japanese CD of the album Psyence Fiction by UNKLE. The cover art has two illustrations of pointy alien figures that are mostly black with neon coloured outlines. Behind them is a grid and some blocky Japanese test which I assume is the artist and album title. The large japanese text at the top is also neon coloured outlines like the figures. It's all very Tron-looking.
