DJ Shadow at 1015 Folsom

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 imitative efforts by fellow sample slayers and turntable terrors. The man himself will be rocking the decks this weekend as he tours behind a new album, The Mountain Will Fall, which trades ’90s turntable sounds for contemporary Ableton production.
