Press Release from http://www.ninjatune.net/ninja/release.php?id=163 :
People, people, prepare to be aflummoxed and unbuttoned. Prepare to be larger than you previously were. Prepare. Prepare.
You see, everyone does mix albums these days and it doesn't seem all that interesting but oh, but oh, Solid Steel do it properly. This is not a mix to listen to while you eat Twiglets and pretend to be holidaying in Ibiza or Agia Napa or Perry Como's asshole. This is not a Wear-Purple-Spandex-While-Listening mix. This is a mix to listen to when you want to hear a superb range of music put together by skilled DJs in an interesting and perhaps even (ooh) provocative manner. Baby.
Solid Steel is a weekly radio show presented by Jonathan More and Matt Black (aka Coldcut). The show has been running since 1988, debuting on Kiss back when it was a pirate and anyone down there actually gave a fuck. With a good claim to be the first show to throw just about every genre of music into the
continuous mix, Solid Steel has innovated, shocked and, on occasion, annoyed (which is what the best radio is all about). Over its run the family has expanded. Since 1993, Strictly Kev and PC (who went on to take over the mantle of DJ Food) have been regular contributors and for the last few years DK (Darren Knott) has been heavily involved and now produces the show…
It's fitting, then, that these three youngsters should be behind the mix which kicks off this series. With a nod and a wink to Coldcut's classic Journeys By DJ mix of 1995 (voted Best Compilation CD Ever in Jockey Slut), Food and DK have cooked up a mix which actually rewards repeated listening. Drawing on a huge range of (mainly non-Ninja) music, obscure bits of spoken word, exclusively made sections and a whole panoply of derringdo and often seamlessly playing two, even three completely different records at once (check out Jeru Da Damaja versus Cinematic Orchestra, and Neotropic for proof…), these fellows have treated making a mix album like making any other album, so that the difference between the DJ and the producer is finally erased. Or something like that - it's a
blind billy of a bouncing baby of a record whether you want to get theoretical or not.
And this is just the start - both Mr Scruff (Keep it Solid Steel) and Kid Koala are racing to finish off their mixes for volumes 2 and 3 and Amon Tobin is on the cards for 2002. You never know...Coldcut may deliver us a 14th birthday treat…
