DJ Yoda

[Amelie]

Anyone heard this blokes stuff?

I listened to a few live shows, just bits and peices and was quite impressed, yet when i bought 'how to cut and paste' it was average. It was a little too erm, well sampled if that makes sense. It made quite hard listening.

I love the likes of The Scratch Perverts, QBert etc, and find them easy to listen too, but this i guess its more of an audience thing, you know like his ability is worth watching more so than it being easy on the ear whilst your making your dinner.

Did i get the wrong thing, any suggestions?

 

[blue jammer]

I didn't like it, as it was too cut and paste.

I don't like a lot of these things though, the Too Many DJ's thing and Cassette Boy just don't do it for me.

I'm sure I've seen Yoda live, as I tittered at the name, fully expecting a big eared puppet to come on stage

johns_ar, I think posted about a mix that tickled my fancy, so I downloaded it:

01-va-fabric_live_14_(mixed_by_dj_spinbad)-2db.mp3

Dunno if you use soulseek, but it's on there, and I think you have broadband? get it snaffled

Excuse his somewhat daft name Spinbad, but his mixing is spot on, timing wise, and there's old and new on there, so it's a nice mix, and one I've found "work friendly" with folks at my work...

Here's a few recommends I think you'd like:

I posted something about this a couple of months back, it's tagged as Dangermouse's Grey album as it's a blend of The Beatles White album and Jay Z's black album, very inventive don't you think. First few tracks on it are awesome.

Gave Yoda a quick listen a year or two back, I didn't listen again although I think I probably should.

As Jammer has said anything Coldcut rocks, I've been collecting their Solid Steel radio sets for a year or two now. The DK ones are something else.
Also recommend checking the Food and DK Now Listen! album, head straight for the mental mix with The Beat's Mirror in the Bathroom, proper quality stuff.

You can get a small dose of Solid Steel here www.ninjatune.net/solidsteel

Shut your southern fakkkkin gob! No, as it goes i have wireless broadband, and as i am in the middle of renovating the dining room, my 'office' has been moved upstairs. So i do not want to load the broadband onto the new pc until its in its new home. So at the mo i am on old pc which can only run dailup.

Cheers though for the reccomendation, i shall grab it tomorrow in my dinner hour.

And thanks too to wildpich, i shall hunt your down too.

(lol too many too's there :$ )

Don't know if it's available on soulseek etc.. or not, but Yoda's Fatlace mix tape always does the business. I think it's about 5 years old, but it just puts the how to cut & paste stuff to shame.
Another one that I love & have discussed on here before is the DJ Woody- Bangers N' Mask mix- which is basically 1 mix of 80s/ (90s??) UK hiphop- I have never seen a tracklisting of it- so can't vouch for the exact dates.

going back to the original start of this thread, I have quite a few of DJ Yoda's stuff, I think it is quite cool. I like the cut and paste format, the 80s stuff was sweet. Although I am a big fan of 80s stuff so I may be a bit biased.

The DJ Spinbad Fabric Live CD is quality as well, excellent hip hop from start to finish old and newer stuff, great scratching though, especially Mystical - Shake ur Ass into KRS-One - Sound of da Police
