DJ Shadow was amazing I am going to have to re-listen to a few tracks

If you're never watched/listened to the entire performance in London, go do it. I was in high school when it was published. Absolutely crazy what he did live. Nowadays most "DJ"s are just hitting play in Ableton.

    Which performance? It looks like there are a few.

    He's actually coming to my city on his current tour, but I'll be out of town on a work trip...

      OP is Undoubtedly referring to "In Tune And On Time"

      Live at the Brixton Academy, 2004.

      I have it on a DVD. I think it's all on youtube, but split into parts.

      One of my favorite live performance recordings out of many, many, many...

    I'm game. Where can we find it?

    Thanks for the tip.

    I didn't know until reading this that he was involved with U.N.K.L.E.

      For production, I believe only as far as Psyence Fiction. He was signed to James Lavelle's Mo Wax label.

It's such a great album. I'll listen to Building Steam With a Grain of Salt on a loop for an hour or two. I looked up tickets for the tour date closest to me but on the second cloudflare check I got annoyed and closed the tab before it finished.

I learned about this (great) album from a Flash cartoon on Newgrounds.

Missed opportunity to title article "DJ looks back, sees his own Shadow"

Why technology sucks in '26.

I listened to this album about a dozen times trying to like it over the years, but it's just so repetitive I could not like it. I think you could probably cut the runtime in half and not lose any discrete musical parts.
