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

*** 14 MAR 2005 Solid Steel - Now break it down! ***
This week (14th to 21st) Spring has sprung in London and fittingly our
guest mix is from the Fluid Ounce record label's very own Mark
Springfield. He lays down a fine selection including music from Minus 8,
Good shine, and then a classic from Stevie Wonder. Cut Chemist also
features before ending with the exclusive Quantic remix by Dave Da Gato.
The second hour is spent in the company of two Solid Steel members,
firstly Hexstatic weigh in with music from the legendary Hex hard
drives. Watch out also for tracks from Evil Nine and New York Pony Club.
Trainers on and dance like nobodies watching! J.Mountain slips into the
hot seat for final session and it's all about music on the LA tip.
Quasimoto, Dwight Trible and The Life Force Trio, Platinum Pied Pipers
and Daedelus all feature with a few choice pieces of spoken word thrown
in to break it up. Now break it down!

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)
