Brought to you by the show's hosts, Coldcut - and often featuring a
fabulous line-up of guest mixes. Solid Steel is a 2 hour show in a
4 x 30 minute mixes format.

to broadcast arguably the most diverse selection of music to be heard on
one radio show. Where else can you enjoy anything from jazz, brakes and
beats, funky rock, hip hop, techno, drum and bass, soundtracks, world
music, poetry, electronic oddities and even a children's story. The
emphasis is on mixing seamlessly between styles with love and feeling
rather than being wilfully obscure. The show is sonically constructed
as a 'journeys by DJ' every week.

fantastic show. Enjoy!

*** 05.01.04 Solid Steel - Down Under ***
Strictly kicks off the new year show (5th to 12th) with an Antipodean
special using only records he acquired whilst on a recent tour down
under. Thank goodness there are brave DJs who can put up with all
that fun and sunshine on our behalf while we shiver in the UK winter.
A special guest 'mix within the mix' comes courtesy of Dave Tipper
with selections from his 'Cut The Jibber' CD that highlights his
scratching dexterity to great effect. The second hour comes from
Australian DJ Edseven with a fine mix that sounds like 'best of
underground beats 1998-2003' and makes you fall in love with dance
music all over again.

BIOGRAPHY - SOLID STEEL - (A BRIEF HISTORY)
Coldcut first started Solid Steel back in 1988 on the London pirate station
Kiss FM. Jonathan More had been involved with the station since it's
inception in 1985 hosting the Meltdown parties. Matt Black joined in early
1987 with his Mixmaster Dance Party. As Coldcut, they joined forces to
present the fledgling Solid Steel. It soon became a regular event as
listeners tuned in religiously to tape their weekly fix of audio madness.
Coldcut ran Solid Steel on Kiss FM right up until spring 1999, winning a
1996 Sony Award for Specialist Show along the way.
From its inception Solid Steel presented arguably the finest and most
diverse selection of music to be heard on one radio show. The emphasis is on
mixing many styles seemlessly, from jazz to electronic oddities, from hip
hop to poetry. There are no records or styles deemed unnacceptable, even a
children's story has featured in one particularly wigged out show. Another
unique element is the way 100's of spoken word samples are used to tie the
music together, a style often imitated but never bettered elsewhere on
radio. Each mix becomes a mini masterpiece.
Solid Steel has innovated, shocked and, on occasion, annoyed (which is what
the best radio is all about). Guests have included Jean Jacques Perry, De La
Soul, Tortoise, DJ Shadow, David Axelrod, Squarepusher, Company Flow and
Alec Empire (and people still get dewy-eyed over the historic Coldcut versus
The Orb special from back in 1992).
It's popularity and uniqueness has also led to radio syndications all around
the world. The show is currently broadcast in over 20
countries from Slovakia to New Zealand, from America to Poland, and
syndicated on the Student Broadcast Network across the UK. The show is also
available on the internet and there is a lively trade on the Ninja forum
(and other sites) swapping tapes of shows from all eras of the programme and
even websites devoted solely to solidifying steel. It is a beautiful and
edifying thing.
"SS is kinda like the big brother you want to get you into cool music before
your friends hear about it!" - Alan Cain (Listener)
