Josh Davis, the brain behind DJ Shadow, began making original electronic music in 1991, and grew into an influential collaborator in the hip-hop scene (he works with Nas, Danny Brown and Oscar-winning composer Steven Price on his latest EP, The Mountain Has Fallen). But two decades later his legacy is still defined by 1996’s Endtroducing…, the seminal album that earned him accolades as one of the 100 best albums of all time by TIME magazine and Rolling Stone, and an entry into the Guinness Book of World Records as the first album to be recorded using only sampled sounds.
