[Rumori] DJ Food: Raiding the 20th Century

[Jon Nelson]

Hey Rumori - If you haven't already heard - Stictly
Kev (DJ Food) has just put his final version of
"Raiding the 20th Century" up at:
http://www.djfood.org/rt20c/

I'm listening to it right now and its awesome. I'll
just pretend y'all don't know anything about this and
give you the scoop:

the original "Raiding..." was released exactly one
year ago. It was his attempt to document the history
of appropriation in music, or "cut-up music."
Everything from the avant garde to bastard pop,
basically. The original was about forty minutes, this
remix is a bit longer and more comprehensive, and now
also includes recordings he made of a reading by Paul
Morley. Artists I recognize so far include:
Negativland, Big City Orchestra, Wayne Butane,
Osymyso, Evolution Control Committee, Wobbly, People
Like Us, James Tenney, Art of Noise, Steinski, Think
Tank, Buchanan and Goodman, DJ Shadow, Mr. Dibbs, Cut
Chemist, Invisibl Skratch Piklz, Cassetteboy, John
Oswald, Christian Marclay, Tape-beatles, KLF,
Emergency Broadcast Network... and of course a ton of
mashup artists (and much, much more - including a bit
from my interview with Steinski which originally aired
on Some Assembly Required in 2001!). And there's much
more information at the website...

this is an internet-only release. I'll be doing an
interview with Kev in a few weeks on Some Assembly
Required. In the meantime - go check this out!
