Two of California’s most cutting edge DJs

Two of California’s most cutting edge DJs, DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist have outdone themselves this time coming up with a new all 45 show titled The Hard Sell. The Hard Sell incorporates eight turntables and two guitar loop pedals, allowing tricks and complexity rarely attempted by two DJs.

As with their now legendary previous works “Brainfreeze” (1999) and “Product Placement” (2001), the pair prefers material from all eras and styles to their own music providing for amusing and provocative mash ups, rap mixes and fiddle music and everything in between, all while avoiding stuff you’ve heard from DJs time and again.

The Hard Sell was last performed at the Hollywood Bowl in front of a 15,000 strong crowd. This shows you it’s going to be special when they come to the London Roundhouse on March 13, 2007.
