This album is a classic. Made entirely of samples. Get this if you like good music.

I could not agree more with this man. This album is essential for all music lovers.

Totally checking this out because you've posted some good stuff before. Figuratively voting +

EDIT - no free download? :(

I just downloaded the album to check it out after reading this.

It was good, but it didn't really blow me away.
I like this style music, but the whole thing sounded a little flat IMO.

The again I guess the whole thing was made on an MPC, so I guess that should be allowed for.

All in all, 5-6/10

Takes a few listens to appreciate fully.

Building Steam With A Grain Of Salt and Organ Donor are da shit.

If you like this check out:

Haha, a convo a few hours ago with a friend whos a big fan was "Dling DJ Shadow - Entroducing, good?" "Yeah sick, Grain of Salt and Organ Donor are awesome."

They were my two favourite tracks actually.
I'll have a listen in the car tomorrow, where I most enjoy music :P

This is the only Shadow album I ever really got in to, Changeling, Building Steam With a Grain of Salt, Midnight in a Perfect World and Organ Donor are all great, the rest of the album is good, those ones just stand out to me.
