DJ Shadow

With a new album that mixes hyphy with indie rock and his trademark cinematic instrumentals, Josh Davis looks to expand his audience

In April, DJ Shadow unveiled the first taste of music from The Outsider, his first album in four years, and some longtime fans scratched their heads. The track "3 Freaks" found Shadow flanked by hyphy stars Keak Da Sneak and Turf Talk for a banging hip-hop track--far removed from the cinematic instrumentals of his past work.

50 Cent


Rapper pulled over in a silver Lamborghini near Madison Square Garden, arrested and cited for four moving violations.
If 50 Cent is going to release his long-rumored album later this year, the prerelease marketing buzz looks to be in full swing.

50 Cent
The rapper--real name Curtis Jackson--was arrested today near Madison Square Garden in New York City after being pulled over for allegedly driving his open-topped, silver Lamborghini erratically and without registration or insurance and with an expired permit.
The 31-year-old rapper and G-Unit Records mogul was pulled over by plainclothes officers in an unmarked patrol car. At first he refused a police order to get out of the car, instead making a call on his cell phone, a tourist who filmed the incident told Reuters.
"Eventually the cops opened the door...He just got out of the car and put his hands on the car and they put the cuffs on him," the tourist, Ian Parvess, told Reuters.
With the flashy car drawing onlookers in Midtown Manhattan, a crowd quickly formed, according to the Associated Press, with Fiddy fans cheering the rapper and booing police as they handcuffed him and put him in the back of a patrol car.
50 Cent, wearing a black baseball cap over a white do-rag, a shiny silver necklace, and a white T-shirt, was cited for making an unsafe lane change, driving with an expired permit, driving without insurance, and driving without a vehicle registration, a police spokesman said. He was taken to a police station and released at around 3 p.m. after being given four summonses.

Mixmaster Mike

Mixmaster Mike, like many turntablists was inspired by “Grandmixer DST”, the DJ behind Herbie Hancock’s 80’s hit “Rokit”. He was fascinated by the sound of the scratch and how the turntables were being used as an instrument to create a melodic tune. “I was so hypnotised by the art that I just wanted to take things into my own hands.” That’s exactly what he did and the rest was history. Mike is the DJ for ‘The Beastie Boys’. “I don't think I'd do it for any other band besides the Beasties because I've been a long time fan of the Beasties Boys, and when that opportunity came it was like a blessing.” For Mike the breakthrough came when he met MC A ‘Adam Yauch’ at the Rock steady anniversary show in NY. “When he wasn’t home I would leave scratch messages on his answering machine which started the whole shit.” And it was definitely a perfect match with them both having mutual respect for each other. Coming from the old school the beasties would constantly highlight the DJ in all their shows and Mike would always perform a mind blowing solo set. “Big respect to those guys you know, they really appreciate the workings of what's going on and they provided me a great platform to do what I do and kinda preach the art and show the kids that don't know what the turntable is capable of doing.” Even though Mike has retired from Battling, he continually contributes a great deal to the progression of the turntablist scene and gives respect to all that plays a role in it from the past to the present. “In order to know where you're at you have to know where it started. Peace to Kool Herc, Grand wizard Theodore, and Flash. Man if it wasn't for Herc, we wouldn't be here. Look how far we’ve come. Mixmaster Mike will be performing with the Beastie Boys on Friday 28th January at The Hordern Pavilion.

History-house techno electro

House, techno , electro and hip-hop musicians owe their existence to the pioneers of analog synthesizers which enabled a wizardry of sounds to exist, available at the touch of a button or key.Although many people believe house music to have originated from Donna Summer's "I Feel Love ", fully formed electronic music tracks actually came before house. Early American Sci-Fi films and the BBC Soundtrack to popular television series Doctor Who stirred a whole generation of techno music lovers like the space rock generation during the 1970s , influenced by the psychedelic music sound of the late 1960s and bands such as Pink Floyd , Soft Machine , Amon Dььl , Crazy World of Arthur Brown , and the so-called Krautrock early electronic scene (Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze ). Shunned by many as a gimmick or children's music, it was a genre similar and parallel to the Kosmische Musik scene in Germany . Space rock is characterized by the use of spatial and floating backgrounds, mantra loops, electronic sequences, and futuristic effects over Rock structures. Some of the most representative artists were Gong and Hawkwind .The late 1970s saw disco utilize the (by then) much-developed electronic sound and a limited genre emerged, appealing mainly to gay and Black audiences. In 1977, disco music crossed over into the mainstream American culture, following the popularity of hit film Saturday Night Fever and its accompanying soundtrack. As disco clubs filled there was a move to larger venues. "Paradise Garage " opened in New York in January 1978 , featuring the DJ talents of Larry Levan (1954 1992 ). Studio 54 , another New York disco club, was extremely popular. The clubs played the tunes of singers such as Diana Ross , CHIC , Gloria Gaynor , Kool & the Gang , Donna Summer , and Larry Levan's own hit, "I Got My Mind Made Up." The disco boom was short-lived. There was a backlash from Middle America , epitomised in Chicago radio DJ Steve Dahl's "Disco Demolition Night " in 1979 . Disco returned to the smaller clubs like the Warehouse in Chicago, Illinois .Opened in 1977, the Warehouse on Jefferson street in Chicago , was a key venue in the development of house music. The main DJ was Frankie Knuckles . The club staples were still the old disco tunes but the limited number of records meant that the DJ had to be a creative force, introducing more deck work to revitalize old tunes. The new mixing skills also had local airplay with the Hot Mix 5 at WBMX . The chief source of this kind of records in Chicago was the record-store imports, etc., where the term "house" was introduced as a shortening of Warehouse (as in these records are played at the Warehouse). Despite the new skills, the music was still essentially disco until the early 1980s when the first stand-alone drum machines were invented. Disco tracks could now be given an edge with the use of a mixer and drum machine. This was an added boost to the prestige of the individual DJs.In Sheffield , England the industrial band Cabaret Voltaire is often considered to have pioneered their own version of the "house sound" as early as 1981 with tracks like "automotivation". Some recordings of The Clash have also been seen in a similar light.
