ok, I know i've already said it, but it deserves another thread on it... DjShadows new album "the private press" is absolutly amazing. I cant get enough... Ahhhh -Zeus |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
really? I just bought Endtroducing the other day... so I'm just starting with DJ Shadow... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
introducing is great too... however, the first album i got by him was "Preemptive Strike" it was basically like, various tacks he did, but on one cd, to counteract bootleging (or so i've read), and the production on it is amazing, IMO, but the private press is soooo good. Great production, great songs. definatly worth getting -Zeus |
||||||||

|
|
private press has some good tracks, but i like endtroducing the most - it's so fucking wicked! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont know... entroducing has alot of good ideas... but im not crazy about the production. it seems kinda flat to me. the recording... but whatever -Zeus |

"fixed income" is just blazing, i can't wait to play that on my radio show in the fall. |
||||||||
|
|

Zeus: Can u share it on kazaa please? i didnt listen nothing of that album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IM NOT to into this NEW album...I personally think DJ Shadow is kinda overrated...Dont get me wrong, Entroducing is a TIMELESS album...BUt all in all the Private Press hasnt impressed me yet....=) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've listened to private press about 21 times now over the last few days, and though it has it's moments, the artistry isn't there as it is in entroducing. the production, however, is. i'm more concerned with the musik though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmmm... Gonna have to download this album. And put the 20 dollars I'm going to save in my ''buy a Gamecube'' fund. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah definately do NOT buy...DL fo sho |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed. but if you don't have entroducing, yr stoopid not to get it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you don't have any dj shadow album yr stoopid, c'mon.. it's not like this is britney spears, don't rip off dj shadow like that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i still stand by what i said before. the private press is amazing. buy it love it -Zeus |
||||||||

I actually bought the private press before entroducing. I had wanted to buy entroducing for a very long time but never got around to it. and I had enough $ on tuesday so private press conveniently came out so I decided to get it first. I thought it is a very good album and I just got entroducing finally today actually. I have to say I expected entroducing to be different than it is. they are both excellent but Im not sure which I like better yet as I have not listened to either very much yet. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
I don't know much about DJ Shadow - I got the mp3 of the XFM Superchunk thing he did, which I really like. Is this album just a mix of released tracks or does he make his own stuff? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he makes his own stuff, but its a collaboration of other songs.... but like its really made into originals its like a collage -Zeus |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Dj Shadow is quite the pimp. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
OK..."Mashin on the Motorway"...is fuckin brilliant.....=) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just bought it. I think its ok...good stuff, but entroducing is way better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not bad...my wife is thrashing it to death..I like some tracks more than others..but to me it's just uneven..doesnt flow together very well..there's his sad melancholy melodic stuff and then his other more fun stuff...they are decent in their own right but for me they kinda clash... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
still think its too mediocre for shadow... opinions? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Endtroducing is superior, but the private press is excellent nonetheless. Its hard for people to understand that Endtroducing was pretty much flawless, and was just one stage in DJ Shadows career. People base his (not to mention other peoples work) against that, and because of the quality of it, many are disappointed when the results aren't as good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
When it came out me and a friend sat down and listened quite intentely... sounded good at first but about half way through we both agreed it wasn't that great. I prefer Endtoducing mself. BUT it's not exactly BAD, just OK. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Of course Endtroducing... is better. It'll be hard for him to repeat another masterpiece of that calibre. But then The Private Press ain't too shabby, just a few unsure moments in there like Right Thing (although pretty fun) and some of the samples don't quite fit on Blood On The Motorway (a version he did for Radio 1 was way better). All in all Endtroducing... - 10/10 The Private Press - 8.5/10 |

some of you apparently weren't checking for shadow's work with unkle, latryx, and blackalicious, cos it's as if you were all shocked by the supposedly sudden shift between the 1996 debut and the 2002 follow-up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know very well all about the quannum project, with blackalicious, the solesides... but, well, I just wanted to know about the private press (now) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and of course I know about unkle... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
zeus, what's with the whole signing your name thing... it's not a postcard :P |
||||||||

I downloaded it a while ago and tried really hard to enjoy it, but I just cant get really into it. Its a good album, but I wouldnt call it amazing by any means. Six days is a nice tune, there are some nice ones on there, its just not something that really hooks me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
best albumn of 2002 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Private Press is amazing!! I don't much fancy Endtroducing anymore... I've only had it a few months, but still, I never put it on... BoC and DJ Shadow are very similar to me in one way... Both release debut albums which became classics, and then released second albums which I've thought were MUCH better... and I do... both The Private Press and Geogaddi exceed each artists previous album imo... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"Giving up the ghost" is great...the whole album is fukken brilliant! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is most certainly the finest disco album that i have ever listened to. endtroducing always sounded a bit flat to me, and after listening to the private press, i think i know why. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
private press is a nice album... better now afer a few months since I bought it... but come on man... endtroducing is way better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
since my last post... i now think entroducing is amazing and the best, preemtive strike is second, and private press is 3rd... but i actually like it less then i did when I first made this thread :-\ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my order of favourites is the same |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what other albums can i get from dj shadow? albums or eps really long |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, those are the only ones I have... but heres a discog from allmusic.com... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love all the dj shadow albums (Im not counting unkle or anything thats not strictly shadow) id say my order of preference is: 1) Endtroducing 2)Private Press 3)Pre-Emptive Strike |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Pre-Emptive Strike is only good for High Noon. The early songs suck a large one. I love the Private Press, but I agree that it is too confused, there are really beautiful tracks on there like Blood on the Motorway, but they clash too much with the crazy happy songs like Walkie Talkie etc. I think he should have compiled tracks with one consistent mood. Stilll, his album not mine. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
what you don't like in/flux, the remix of organ donor, or WDYSLL Pt. 2???? i hope shadow puts another album out next year, not every album has to be precious or a masterpiece. the problem w/ shadow is he thinks too much like trent instead of like amon tobin where there's a comfortable gap between albums but he doesn't obsess over every single moment on the album before releasing it. overthinking can be destructive! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there's a new single* with new remixes either this week or next. sorry i'm being really vague, ill find some info in a minute. *from the private press |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mashin on the motorway / walkie talkie CD & 12" next week. presumably there's something new on there somewhere... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mashin' on the motorway / walkie talkie double A-side single w/ remixes from z-trip and unkle featuring roots manuva (same tracks you can buy on The Private Repress) our "mutual friend" met with shadow over a year ago and told me he might remix a track but he never did.. what a dummy, coulda been something good |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
also a soulwax remix. and a dvd. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
right you are.. and once again all these tracks are on The Private Repress including the new music videos |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
'Blood on the Motorway' is just too damn good. Overall, I must say that I enjoy The Private Press the most out of all his releases. As for High Noon, get Juno's cover of that tune. Juno is an Indie Rock Band btw. Jeez I can't believe how well they pulled it off. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have the limited version w/ a bonus disc.. ..no worries. it only has one trac that's about 13 min long - you didn't miss much |
