Album of The Month
In Jockeyslut is DJ Shadow's "The Private Press" - :

"No parent likes to see their offspring led astray, but for a control freak like Josh Davis it must be doubly painful. He spent years fanatically grooming his unique vision of hip hop, yet when it finally stepped into the world, it wasn’t long before his beautiful child was molested. ‘Endtroducing’ completely redefined what music built from samples could be, but the afterbirth was a messy flood of ersatz imitations christened ‘trip hop’."

Dominic Smith, A&R, Ninja Tune Records:
"Much broader in style and feel than ‘Endtroducing’, this record sees Josh Davis explore his love affair with rock and funk sample architecture, the hallmark of his sound. Extending that thesis sonically to include more punk and pop than previously, there’s a genuine sense of humour in some of the tracks, and a new degree of complexity too. If ‘Endtroducing’ was a landmark of cut‘n’paste then ‘The Private Press’ shows us what happens when you throw away the knife and opt for a stick of dynamite."
