Book Reviews of DJ Shadow's Endtroducing... (33 1/3)

Book Review: An extended liner notes for one of the greatest albums ever created
Summary: 5 Stars

Endtroducing... by DJ Shadow is one of the best albums of the 20th century, period. A lot of words have been said about it, but it was Eliot Wilder who, through a combinations of interviews with the artist, was able to get a closer look and listen to an album that is still an intense experience from start to finish.

It feels like having an extended set of liner notes with you, as Shadow reveals facts about his childhood, his eventual obsession of all that is vinyl, and what moved him to turn that love of rap music into something he could add into the mix. He talks about his experiences with his early work, all of which contributed to what would become "the album". As with many artists, he does keep himself slightly guarded but Wilder is able to have Shadow reveal things about the album that even the most diehard fans might not have known.

Had I written the book, I would've went in deeper, much deeper, but Wilder's book is able to dig up as much as possible from the artist himself, who is open into sharing his experiences, dreams, fears, and outlook into a piece of work that he calls his album of hope, and he formally thanks in full everyone who made an impact on him and his debut album.

Summary of DJ Shadow's Endtroducing... (33 1/3)

What resonated about Endtroducing when it was released in 1996, and what makes it still resonate today, is the way in which it loosens itself from the mooring of the known and sails off into an uncharted territory that seems to exist both in and out of time. Josh Davis is not only a master sampler and turntablist supreme, he is also a serious archeologist with a world-thirsty passion (what Cut Chemist refers to as Josh?s ?spidey sense?) for seeking out, uncovering and then ripping apart the discarded graces of some other generation ? that ?pile of broken dreams? ? and weaving them back together into a tapestry of chronic bleakness and beauty. Over the course of several long conversations with Josh Davis (DJ Shadow), we learn about his early years in California, the friends and mentors who helped him along the way, his relationship with Mo?Wax and James Lavelle, and the genesis and creation of his widely acknowledged masterpiece, Endtroducing.
