DJ Shadow and Cut Chemist give Australia the 'Hard Sell'



For all you fans out there, you’ll only have to wait until April to witness the DJ Shadow audio-visual spectacular again and better yet, he’ll have Cut Chemist by his side.

At this stage, we’re assuming the tour will be in support of the new 'Hard Sell' CD that was the result of a massive gig that Cut Chemist and DJ Shadow played together at the legendary Hollywood Bowl last year – the 16,500 capacity site has hosted infamous concerts from the likes of The Beatles and The Doors, and the boys were the first ever turntablists that were asked to play a headline show. And the 'Hard Sell' is a recording of the rehearsals for the massive gig: an eclectic mix of funk, hip hop, rock and a whole bunch more that utilises 8 turntables and 2 loop pedals, pushing the possibilities of what can be done with live turtablism.

It’ll no doubt prove amazing to see the results of the two of them hitting the stage together. So far we’ve only got details on the Sydney gig, but you can be sure there’ll be national dates to follow…

Dates so far:

Saturday April 19th - Luna Park Big Top, Sydney NSW
