Vintage Solid Steel: DJ Food & DK - “Now, Listen!” (The Director’s Cut)
The year is 2000 and Ninja Tune is a decade old. To celebrate, a new compilation of the Ninja Cuts series is in production, featuring tracks from artists past, present and future. Also in the planning is the first volume in a new mix CD series based around Coldcut’s Solid Steel show, to be included [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut - Essential Mix
The clocks just went back, so what do we do here? Send them forward! We’ve pulled out a more recent show to add to the Vintage Steel selections, but recent doesn’t equal bad… far from it. When Coldcut were offered up a 2 hour slot for the BBC Radio 1’s Essential mix in 2006, they [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: DK - More From The Vaults
Time is precious as they say. We say - never a truer word spoken. We’re keeping it direct and to the point this time round, not too much in the way of reading material (from the worldy wordsmith Strictly Kev, as always)… but it’s about the tunes, you all shout! Good show, as DK’s back [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut - Best Of The K Mixes Part 2
We return to the K Mixes archive this week and dig out four storming sets from Coldcut and PC including Old School Hip Hop in the disco rap mould, cut ups galore as only Coldcut do, a Jazz Rap, a Native Tongues era Hip Hop mix and a Go Go session from PC. All I [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: DJ Food Vs DJ Vadim
Vintage Steel brings vintage DJ Vadim. A big-hitter on the dusty beats and breaks scene back in the mid 90s, Russia’s finest carved a niche for himself early on by utilising unique sounds that other producers hadn’t thought to load into their samplers back then - it seems Vadim had a lot of squeaky door [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: King Megatrip - I Must Insist You Eat Steel/Coldcut - Planet Of The Apes Special
(Introduction courtesy of Strictly Kev) For this week’s vintage session we turn the tables over to Solid Steel’s US ambassador: King Megatrip. For those who don’t know, Megatrip has been first a fan, then a show archivist, amassing possibly the world’s biggest collection of past Solid Steels. He has also had guest mixes featured [...]
Mr. Magic - Girls (mastermix series #12)
Mr. Magic was a DJ from a time before hip hop was making it big on the airwaves. Magic was one of the pioneering early radio DJs to make the transition from disco and soul, taking hip hop from it’s early roots of block parties and clubs and putting it out there for a wider [...]
Colin Faver: Kiss FM Hardest Mix (mastermix series #6)
The mastermix series rolls on. A short and sweet effort this time, with the personal touch from Rich Color:
“London’s Kiss Fm began broadcasting illegally on 94fm in October 1985 and soon Colin Faver played this mix late one evening. It blew me away. Some correspondence to Colin followed and by special request he played it [...]
Fresh Steinski mixes for your ears
Following on from this week’s earlier news, it gives me great pleasure to offer up some choice sounds courtesy of Steinski. Steve has kindly permitted a couple of his mixes to be co-hosted here at bosbos.net - Live From The Basement and Shop & Shop. I’ll let the man himself take to the virtual floor [...]
