What do you guys think of DJ Shadow? More broadly, what's

> I'm too autistic/egotistic to find someone to add poetry to my mediocre beats, so I'll just release them as is!

Friend introduced me to him in High School, been a fan ever since.

The Private Press is still a favorite album of mine.

Jay Dilla and Nujabe are better rappers.

I'm studying poetry and you're a moron.

>>53101226
I knew about Nujabes, but I wasn't familiar that the reason people liked Shadow was because of his rapping talent but rather his sampling talent.


[spoiler]I personally prefer UNKLE though[/spoiler][spoiler] post-Psyence Fiction[/spoiler]

>>53101285
>studying
So you're a high schooler who just read Emily Dickinson.

Hip hop isn't poetry, it's drivel.

Endtroducing..... is a masterpiece

Private Press is a solid album

everything else is pretty mixed though

oh and UNKLE is decent

>>53101524
My favorite poet is Robert Frost :^)

There's no doubt that Endtroducing..... is his best album, though What Does Your Soul Look Like is a fantastic EP on the same level. The Private Pres sis alright and everything else can be disregarded, though I haven't listened to anything by UNKLE.

>>53101611
UNKLE is pretty good, Psyence Fiction is a great blend of some of Shadow's stuff plus more traditional styles of music.

Anything post-Psyence Fiction is pretty different though since Shadow left after that, though it's all still good.

>>53101586
An American, how sad.

>>53101158
>ruining amazing music with a shitty rapper over the top

Preemptive Strike introduced me sample/beat based music outside of regular hip hop

Changeling is on my top 5 tracks of all time to be stuck on a desert island with

>>53101142
I prefer instrumental hip hop, these rappers can't even rap nowadays.

>>53101142
Love it

Shadow, Krush, UNKLE, Nigo, Major Force West, Mike Boo, Kid Koala, P-Love, Blockhead, Around 7, Cut Chemist, Kenichiro Nishihara, Ricci Rucker, Wax Tailor, Kenmochi Hidefumi, Birdy Nam Nam, DJ Cam are a few favourites

This. Madvillainy Instrumentals are one hundred billion times better without MF DOOM over the top with his shit flow talking about literally anything.

>>53102701
I disagree. Madvillain is nowhere near as enjoyable without DOOM over the beats, they're meant to complement one another.

>>53102747
Yet they completely ruin perfectly great music.

>>53102747
The entire project hinged on Madlib's stellar production. DOOM's raps had zero continuity and rarely had anything to do with the theme of the album.

Fuckin love Nujabes

More shit like this?

>>53104161
DJ Krush.
That's the guy Seba Jun was trying to imitate

>>53101142
Who?

But is that a Mesa Boogie Cal .50? Do want.

>>53104142
>The Audience's Listening
great album

I really liked him before I got into producing.
Now I just find him boring. But I can admire the use of the limited technology and effort at the time.
Like Boards of Canada and Aphex.

>>53104142
hey dude i'm trying to find that Rob Swift album with that one song with a raper super hero ? colour man something like that?

do you know maybe?

>>53104815
nvm found it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26fSUWNr_z0

rest of the album is very different

>>53102881
HAHAHA

Yeah, they're great beats. But the beats are only half of it. That album wouldn't be shit without Doom spitting some of his best verses on them. If you can't appreciate the raps, you probably need to pay more attention.

>>53104142
>cage
What type of bait is this?

Personally cant stand the sound of scratching so it's all just shite to me.
Seems like just a single rhythmic element with a single unbearable sound at different speeds and mostly random and uninteresting intervals.

are dj's Qbert ''Wave Twisters'' the endgame of DJ'ing?

>>53105029
It's literally when I stopped listening to all scratch records, which I used to love (I'm an oldfag), so maybe. He's the buckethead of DJs

Endtroducing is the only trip hop album that I've actually enjoyed for an extended period of time

>>53105029
Prefer Demolition Pumpkin Squeeze Musik

>>53101158

You don't need anyone rapping when you have an infinite amount of samples
