*** 06.09.04 Solid Steel - Nightmare on Steel Street ***
This week (6th to 13th) we have a long awaited mix from
Freddie Cruger. He slips into the chair for the first
session, and brings with him his very own funky selection
delivering us a fine hour with, amongst others, slices of
Latin and Hip Hop as well as some of his own productions.
Also known as Red Astair, this man has a slight bootleg
fetish, he brought us the classic "Follow me" which is still
setting dancefloors alight! The Solid Steel ship's captain
DK opens hour two with brand a new Stereotyp meets Al Haca
tune and stays in the dub vein whilst the weather in London
holds out. Watch out for a cheeky version of "The Message"
and some fine new cuts from the Ninja stable including an
unreleased Domu remix of the Cinematic Orchestra. It's a
choice half hour to close from the inimitable PC who weaves
delicately between Archie Shepp, Biz Markie and John Barry.
Delve into the diversity, embrace the broadest beats!

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.

your friends hear about it!" - Alan Cain (Listener)
