Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut Meets The Orb
Welcome to the very first Vintage Solid Steel, brought to you by bosbos.net in conjunction with Ninja Tune’s ‘Solid Steel’ radio show. Solid Steel has been delivering the broadest beats for 20 years, resulting in a hefty archive to mine for some classic shows to listen to and enjoy. Thanks to the efforts of DJ [...]
Controller 7 - BUMPS
BUMPS is a mix which, to quote Controller 7 himself, ‘…was put together in my spare time as an attempt to keep myself entertained’. If everyone else had this kind of forward thinking approach to boredom, we’d be overrun with quality creative efforts! As such, C7 gets digging in those old skool hip hop crates [...]
Ghislain Poirier - Blazin’ (Modeselektor Remix)
Today sees the release proper of Ghislain Poirier’s Blazin’ on Ninja Tune, a hot new 12-inch banger featuring Face T to promote Ghislain’s recently dropped (well, in Canada at least) longplayer No Ground Under.

New York Scratchmasters - Scratchmaster’s Jam #2 (mastermix series #13)
The mastermix is back. After languishing away for some time, the series is being resurrected and we’re back on track with the New York Scratchmasters.

Neon Neon - Stainless Style Influences
Everyone loves the eighties! Even the kids of today who weren’t even born then but suck up it’s cultural influences like it’s going out of fashion.

Daft Punk - Electroma (Unofficial Soundtrack)
Daft Punk’s Electroma truly is one of those films that you either love or hate with all your being. With it’s premiere screened at Cannes, reviews were mixed with a near-equal amount of both praise and indifference. A complete lack of dialogue isn’t the first step towards endearing your audience to your live action cinematic [...]
DJ Krush - Suimou Tsunenimasu DVD review
When is the best time for an artist to be retrospective about their work? In most cases, it’s usually linked to the impending close of a recording label contract, when a lazily packaged ‘greatest hits’ compilation falls into place in the absence of any new material. For some, it can be a chance to cast [...]
DJ Krush coming live & direct
With a career spanning twenty years, it’s fair to say that DJ Krush knows his stuff when it comes to hip hop. Since forming ‘Krush Posse’ back in 1987, Krush (real name Hideaki Ishi) has consistently turned out many a diverse album; from his soulful debut Krush (1994), his many releases for the Mo’ Wax [...]
Les Adams - Doctor’s Orders (mastermix series #10)
Les Adams - forever legendary for being the first UK club DJ to perform an entire live show… using Minidisc. Err, nice one Les! To be fair, Les Adams has a lot more strings to his bow, and has made his fair share of contribution to the world of music in one way or another [...]
DJ Undercover - One Time Mix (mastermix series #9)
Westwood on the rewind, baby! By which I mean, here’s another choice snippet from the big dawg’s early days. Not an awful lot of info on this one, but as usual Rich Color fills in the gaps:
“Tim Westwood broadcast this on his LWR hip hop show in early 1985. It’s a live scratch mix taking [...]
