*** 19.08.02 Solid Steel - Opportunity Rocks ***
On Solid Steel this Monday the 19th we have a tip top mix from up and
coming DJs Dax & Oddkidd. A mix cd was posted throught the letterbox of
the Solid Steel caravan in Bournemouth, we listened to it and we thought
'why the hell not!?' and decided to put it on air. You'll thank us as
it's superb. DK has washed his mixing gloves and is ready to try them
out and will have Mixmaster Morris alongside him; they'll be rocking it
like a musical Two Ronnies. We've heard a rumour that Jon More might be
popping in with a special mix of Arthur Russell tracks, he's the original
twisted disco king & founder of Sleeping Bag records (Arthur not Jon that
is). The competition is to win copies of the brill Urban Renewal Program
CD.
Extra!: Also included in this release is the 2nd half hour of Coldcut's
Arthur Russell mix that didn't air - cause there wasn't enough time in
the 2 hour show. But tronik presents it here, for you.

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. Solid
Steel is now happily ensconced in its new home on BBC London Live.
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, <http://www........>)
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)
