    I've heard lots of Trip-Hop, Chill-Out, Lounge, House, and DJ music...but DJ Shadow still proves to be my favorite of all.

    Now, I've only downloaded 4 other DJs, but they were alright.

    Does anyone know of any artists that play music very similare to Shadow's? Icey Urban Chillout Themes with an artistic feeling.

    I really wish they would make an Official "Urban Chill-out" genre, because I don't really like those female vocals a lot of times. It's gotta be pretty darn good, such as Thievery Corporation's "Holographic Universe" to catch my attention.
    I really like it when they bust out piano notes, such as "Mongrel meets...His Maker" or "Building Steam with a Grain of Salt".

    Shadow thinks he's gangster, but I think he's got a better seat in the art and film clubs. Too slick for rap vocals.

    hello mate have you tried dj yoda? not quite the same, more goofy but has the sam kind of ultra sampled feel, but shadows kinda in a leage of his own. also try LTJ bukem, orbital and aphex twins 'ambient works'. by tha way do you know any good torrent sites for dance music, every one i try seems to have a really limited amount, is EVERYone into fucking heavy rock these days?

    Don't be a snob.

    Listen to Building Steam with a Grain of Salt or Midnight in a Perfect World and you might understand why DJ Shadow is obviously an artist.
