This week we welcome in the guest spot Killer Tomato with a fine selection of broad beats. Music off the shelf from Cymande, DJ Kentaro feat Spank Rock, The Police, High Contrast, Jean Knight and more from across the spectrum. All neatly pick 'n mixed for your listening pleasure.
In hour two we return to the vaults. With the Iraq war reaching it's 5th Anniversary, it seems timely to broadcast Strictly Kev's 'War Is Not The Answer' mix from 2003. With an hour of war-themed tracks for the show, some are commentary on previous wars, some poke fun, some are there purely because they have a war-related title but all stick to the central theme. DJ Shadow, Marvin Gaye, Chris Morris and Public Enemy all make their point. Sad then that 5 years on this senseless waste of life continues.
Check out www.bosbos.net for the second chapter 'War Is Stupid'.

Eighties funk by Prince, city love by DJ Krush, all or nothing from Finland, Italian all star jazz piano sounds by LTC. A project called The Black Feeling by The Bamboos' Lance Ferguson that is all about taking it back to the source. Dimitrov and Adnan feeling me on, Bitman & Roban's answer to the beat, Benedic Lamdin's little steps, I'm wishing Lorez drops by more often, planetary sounds by Funki Porcini and Cibelle's poern.

Music on offer here from Jay Shepheard, Hashim, Scott Wozniak, DJ Tamiel and Mash to name but a few. Lully Jully! Something tasty for the bank holiday weekend? Keep it Steel!

This week on Solid Steel, we welcome DJ Craze, the turntablist champion with a mix promoting his recent Fabric mix CD. Tracks from Swizz Beats, Gaz, Blaqstarr and Freez showcase his skills to perfection. Joining him him in the first hour are Caspa & Rusko with a taste of their Fabric mix with tunes from Wonder, Benga & Coki and the men themselves.
Hour 2 delves into the vaults unearths a Solid Steel show from November 1993. Periodically in the early to mid-nineties Coldcut would give up it's traditional format of talk and adverts and morph into a Sphinx for two hours. They were sprawling soundscapes inhabiting similar territory to the Orb and FSOL at the time. Unfortunately we have no track list, but this show takes in Jazz from Ricardo Marrero, Latino Hip Hop from Kid Frost, thunderstorms, Steve Reich, storytelling, The Irresistible Force, cicadas and the Orb on one of their remix excursions.
As always more vintage Solid Steel at bosbos.net and not forgetting the podcasts of course!?
This month I've posted up an older mix from the Megatrip Archives (2003). This one is called "Relaxed, But Ever Alert". It's a downtempo chilled affair. Hope you like it.
