Solid Steel -- Herbie Hancock


some great shows from Solid Steel... it's hard to keep up with them every week!

oct 03 - DK dons the silk jacket and steps up to the mark. Straight out the box hip hop releases from Murs and DJ KO on a soul tip, with a little help from Zulema. EPMD get the Duke Dumont treatment whilst The Heavy get "jungled" by Rhythm Beater alongside bangers from Drumsound and Tantrum Desire. All neatly wrapped up with a tribute to Messer's Whitfield, Moulin, Palmer and Newman. Beat broadness!

Hour two sees the welcome return of Ghislain Poirier presenting his Cosmopolitan Bass mix. Hip-hop/ragga/bass and more from the world over: Montréal, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Jamaica, Sweden, France, Burkina Faso, South Africa, Haïti, Barbados, Trinidad, UK, Senegal all feature in this epic audio journey. Now pop that in your podcast and flex it!

oct 10 - This week - Killer Tomato back on Solid Steel with a broad selection! Push back the sofa and get the plastic cups out because its party styles to the max! Everything from Bowie to Simian Mobile Disco to Grace Jones.

We take a trip down memory lane at the top of the hour with a Solid Steel classic. The Herbie Hancock Interview from April 2002. Strictly Kev & DK meet and question the legendary Herbie Hancock about his extensive career from his Blue Note days in the 60's, to his electronic jazz-funk of the 70's and his B-Boy inspiring hit Rockit from the 80's, along with a lot more in between. Legendary! You can catch the second part of this classic series with the David Axelrod interview at bosbos.net. Go there now!
