Input: DJ Shadow

DJ Shadow became an instant headphone hero in the ’90s with his debut album, Endtroducing…, a stone-cold hip-hop classic that set off nearly two decades of a scene swamped with imitative efforts by fellow sample slayers and turntable terrors. The man himself will be rocking his beats tonight as part of his All Basses Covered tour—yes, the very same tour that saw the iconic decksmith get booted from the booth of a douche bag Miami club last year. (By the way, you can find that night's set online, and it's fabulous.)
