"I’m old enough to know that when 99% of the population is marching lockstep in one direction, sometimes it’s wise to break rank and go the other way." In an incredibly bold move, DJ Shadow whines about how people don't buy his music anymore. |

He's a cock! It's all crap if you bother reading it. |

I did end up reading all of it. What an incredibly lame guy :) The bit about him feeling his music has value, and thus monetary value, is just sad. I really must hate myself and my music if I keep on spreading it for free all over the internet. |

Midlife Crisis. This made me laugh: "Music can only suggest sex and violence…the Internet provides both, full frontal and full strength, 24/7. Maximum dose. " Link please!?!? |

Haha! He should be a headline writer for the Daily Mail. |
||||||||
|

I read it all and quite a few of the comments. I'm glad that the comments actually tell him how stupid his opinions are. Also his 'Crate digging' activities never went to the 'Artists', supported a few thrift stores though. |

heh. he probably had an enlightening chat with Bono. |

Ha! I've not seen that since it was last on a proper glowing television (not like these bullshit GARBAGE plasma screen lcd I DON'T KNOW Future Televisions showing Internet Idol) ... I'm not going to ask how what search you used to find that "West Country Accent Sexy Rabbit Caramel" |

I never knew it was her... hmm, slightly put a dampener on it. Though I would still do her. If she dressed up as a rabbit. |

Maybe not with music. But i do wonder for other areas where you actually really need money to produce something. Ok i'd gladly see the current blockbuster movies die out but i'm glad some films are financed and the time is taken to make them. I dunno. He's being self-righteous and devoid of any subtlelty but surely we've all thought about it a little bit. Good thing is there's a lot more musicians doing great stuff with what they can. Nothing is dead. |

Remember Metallica going all scared they wouldn't be raking it in anymore? The drummer was nearly crying. |

I found one of in a shop that's in Salts Mill, the gallery owned by David Hockney. It's all updated to HDTV and HDMI and all that bollocks but it is a really comforting watch! |

"When was the last time you saw a ‘new,’ post-record company artist headline a major music festival? At this rate, we’ll be stuck with Coldplay for decades (no offense intended)." No offense intended, lads, just saying you're fucking dreadful! "And much like the TV of the ‘60s and ‘70s, you will NEVER hear or read anything negative about the Internet ON the Internet." I think the only website he browses is his own. Mr Shadow seems to like capitalising every alternate word, as if he's recruiting for some sort of cult of musicality. |

I know we're not there yet, but ideally, by being a little thrifty and if people are willing to help, if they actually want to make a film instead of doing a job, a film should hardly cost anything at all, especially since the advent of digital cameras. We'd need a pretty huge societal shift so it's a bit silly, but at least money is not an absolute necessity. Or we can just not care and drop anything that costs too much to make, because there are other, more practical way to do things. |

Oooh nice,just think though that DJ Shadow's probably trying to keep warm huddled round an original one of those, thinking about how costly it's been "keeping it real" all these years and sobbing into a limited edition japanese baseball cap. I saw a crappy portable b/w telly outside a junk shop today on my way in the BITING COLD to the pub at lunchtime (much like DJ Shadow as he makes his way to the studio, with the soles of his shoes flapping and his coat lined with second hand record inner sleeves) and I thought I could maybe watch on VHS tapes on it. |

You need time. You need food for the actors, maybe even pay them so they can pay their rent etc .... You're right, we're not there yet. I want to be there though of course. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha! Shoes flapping! You should get that telly! I love watching local news on it, then going to the pub just next to BBC Leeds and checking out the Weather girls. |
||||||||
|

I stopped reading at "short-sided". |

What's your view on file sharing jivver or is it best not to ask :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What an enchanting scene. Can we get DJ Shadow to come down off of Mount HipHop and learn to love again the simple joys of pub, telly, and the weather girls? Or is he TOO FAR GONE? |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||

God that makes me feel tiny again. |

I am now imagining your avatars are weather girls on their day off. |

his last album was so gash, i felt ripped off downloading it for free. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's probably not best for me to answer! I download shit loads of music and films etc. I buy loads of music and films too if it's convenient and I really want it. I always buy software though, I don't know why, I just feel I should. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
He thinks he should be Pink FLoyd. Wrong era, mate. You don't need to pay for a studio and waste record company money anymore. Especially with what he does. I don't think i've ever heard Madlib or someone of the like moan. I think DJ Shadow's problem is Entroducing sold way too many albums. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I spend most of my disposable income on music and films. Mostly ones I would not have taken a chance on if I hadn't downloaded them first. The internet is great. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hang on, weren't his last few albums shite? Perhaps this is why he's not getting all the money he thinks he deserves. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the private press wasn't so bad. a few of the tracks i really liked, though admitably it was the beginning of the end for him. the outsider was just a joke. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's his albums are shite, plus, Dj Hero bombed in the gaming market. He's probably got some limited edition Japanese shoe laces on order that he can't pay for. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Outsider my arse! He made tracks that were like a Coldplay/James Blunt inspired act. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No offense intended. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes! What was that back tracking about! Say it or shut up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Say what? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Not you!! I thought you were referring to Shadow saying 'we’ll be stuck with Coldplay for decades (no offense intended)' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha, yes, I realise that now. To say "no offense intended" after something, is to say "I've an opinion here, you may not like it, but don't hate me for it, I'm DJ fucking Shadow!" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No offense intended to DJ Shadow. |
||||||||
|

i wonder how dj shadow's investment portfolio is doing these days. |

"20 years from now, it will be interesting to see what hindsight reveals. I predict a flag on the time-line: when we moved closer to becoming a passionless, listless, hollowed-out society, one in which art and nature could no longer provide the psychological shock to the system required to endure another harrowing day of terror alerts and super-bugs. Music can only suggest sex and violence…the Internet provides both, full frontal and full strength, 24/7. Maximum dose." right. what |

that was a sad read. |

the comments are great |
