Vintage Solid Steel: DJ Food - African Steel/Dark Star Sci-Fi Sex Up
This time round we’re back in the mid to late 90’s with PC and Strictly, aka DJ Food as they take an hour each with very different paths. PC’s mix, labelled ‘African Steel’ on the DAT mixes all manner of percussion together, both old and new, traditional and contemporary. Burundi beats and thumb piano collide [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut, PC - Solid Wood
This week we take a more organic stance on proceedings with a little known treasure nicknamed Solid Wood by PC who, with Jon More, decided to present an entire show from a less electronic viewpoint. Jazz, African, Indian, classical, roots and world - or should that be ‘other world’ - music, all feature heavily instead [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Ken Nordine - Talking All That Word Jazz (2008 Edition)
“You may not know Ken Nordine by name or face, but you’ll almost certainly recognize his voice.” A very special outing for the Vintage Solid Steel collection for your listening enjoyment, originally broadcast in 1998 but extended and edited for 2008 by an exacting Strictly Kev who doesn’t know when to say ‘it’s finished!’ Also [...]
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: PC Via Josephine/Coldcut Meet Jean Jacques Perry
A mixed bag (aren’t they all ‘mixed’ bags?) here, but quality assured nonetheless. PC returns to the shores of bosbos.net yet again with ‘Via Josephine’, and we’re more than happy to accomodate him. And what’s this? Jean Jacques Perry turning up along with Coldcut for a natter? The only thing to improve this wonderful listening [...]
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 [...]

Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut - Best Of The K Mixes
Exactly how deep do Coldcut’s cavernous vaults go? Well If this Vintage Steel selection is anything to go by, you’d need a hard hat and a mining canary to detect for gas to tunnel on down there! Welcome to the ‘K mixes’, a truly eclectic blend of quality mind-bending mad mixes you’ve come to expect [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: J. Rocc - Syndromes 2
Not much time to spare this time round, but don’t think this entry from the Vintage Steel treasure chest is any less special because of it. Don’t take our word - just peep that deliciously funky tracklist! J. Rocc has been doing his hip hop thing since the mid-eighties; starting out with PSK, he went [...]
