So I was in Sam Goody today and I was browsing through their CD racks when I finally came upon DJ Shadows Endtroducing. It took me almost a year to find this record. So I plopped down my $20 for it and hastily bought it. Well, let me tell you that its like a mind trip for your brain without drugs. Seriously. I could listen to this album all day and be in a utopia all of its own. Hands down this has become one of my favorite records ever.
Metroleum Records:
DJ Shadow is an essential artist and this is a must-have album. We're talking brain food. Shadow is a master at laying down complex sonic combinations - lyrically, a William S. Burroughs of music. He has a distinct style that comes through the music. I hate to refer to a specific song like I'm writing a thesis - but the line that sums it up is "The music's coming through me."

I would really suggest going out and buying the record. Even if you don't like the type of genre.
