Solid Steel Radio Show 27/1/2012 Part 3 + 4 – Pepe Deluxe by Ninja Tune

Es mag Zufall sein, dass „The Search Engine“ wie eine Mischung aus dem Intro von DJ Shadows „The Outsider“ (seiner vielleicht schwächsten Platte) und einem Ian-Brown-Stück auf dem legendären U.N.K.L.E.-Album beginnt. Abgesteckt wären die Leitplanken des ersten DJ Food-Longplayers nach elf (!) Jahren damit aber in aller Deutlichkeit. Vorbei die Zeiten, in denen Strictly Kev mit den legendären „Jazz Brakes“-Veröffentlichungen den Sound des Ninja-Tune-Labels quasi als Blaupause in die Welt trug, jetzt wird gerockt. Natürlich in übertragenem Sinne und mit illustrer Gästeschar: Natural Self, JG Thirlwell und Matt Johnson (The The) sind dabei, wenn Food die fordernde Quere der Vergangenheit gegen durch und durch kickenden Dancefloorsound eintauscht. „Wie Fatboy Slim mit Restwürde“ denkt man erschrocken beim Achteinhalbminüter „Giant“ (mit besagtem Matt Johnson als Dämon am Mikro), der in seinen Grundfesten ganz deutlich von den Charlatans gemauert wurde. Strictly Kev will jetzt und hier ganz deutlich an die Fleischtöpfe. Könnte ihm gelingen, denn hochwertiger hat in den vergangenen Monaten keiner schmutzige Coolness in den Rachen der „Solid Steel“-Gemeinde geworfen.

“The Search Engine” erscheint am 13. Januar bei Ninja Tune/Rough Trade.

In 2010, DJ Cheeba’s first audio visual mix ‘The Reels of Solid Steel’ set a new level of progression for DJs. Now in 2011 he returns with the next episode… ‘Revenge Of The Nerd’. A quick fire, attention frying, mash of sure fire club hits, stone cold classics, countless acapellas and turntable tricknology, all set to a visual feast of music videos, pop culture cameos, kung fu interludes and cinematic delights. Mixed with incredible flair and imagination, this is another bench mark in contemporary DJ culture. As Cheeba puts it… “It’s cut and paste sound and pictures for people with open minds and short attention spans.”
