DJ Shadow + Cut Chemist April 18, 2008

Californian DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist come to Australia for The Hard Sell Tour, and will play at Metro City in Perth on Friday 18 April 2008.

Their new, all-45 show, entitled “The Hard Sell” incorporates eight turntables and two guitar loop pedals, allowing tricks and complexity rarely attempted by a DJ duo. As with the two previous sets, the pair elude their own material in favor of a conglomerate of music from all eras and styles, providing for amusing and provocative mash-ups; rap mixes with fiddle music, doo-wop with new wave, and everything in between…all while avoiding the obvious, “been there, heard that” stuff you get from most DJs.
