*** 22.09.03 Solid Steel - The Herbal Blend, The Director's Cut ***
We've got a bit of a special show for you this week (22nd to 29th).
The Herbaliser recently released the third installment of our 'Solid
Steel presents' mix CD series - inspired by this very show - and this
week we've got a special version of that CD for you. Jake & Ollie
have dug into their archives and produced a 'directors cut' version
of their mix with lots of tracks that didn't make it. Add to this the
ever excellent DK with Strictly Kev in tow then it's a bit of a
corker. Other highlights include a tribute to Johnny Cash (RIP) and a
preview of Mr Scruff's next single.

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)
