With DJ Shadow playing in Melbourne this week I thought it appropriate to post some work of his. This is the Walkie Talkie filmclip of DJ Shadows infamous album The Private Press.

Be sure to hear about his gig here on turntablism.com.au

Listen to the new Dialogue and Random Phase II right here on turntablism.com.au.

UPDATE: This new release from the Groove of Satyre is a turntablist / producers dream. This piece of vinyl is an outstanding scratch / production tool for turntablists, producers and any live DJ. The huge amount of samples created by live instruments make for excellent beat juggling and scratching.

This record will be available in Australia shortly, you will soon be able to purchase this vinyl (and more) from turntablism.com.au

Listen to Dialogue side:

Watch the all time master of turntablism tear it up for 8 minutes. The technique, the style…it is from another planet. I need one of those crystals.
