From what I know Shadow Rec. was only releasing stuff from different (European) labels in the US, thus not really worth to mention.

does shadow evew have any of their own acts? i've picked up quite a few of their releases (glad to be able to get all that ninja stuff), but lately they just seem to be releasing bland comps and boring jungle. some good stuff from shadow: ninja stuff dj cam cujo probably some others, and i should probably try to sell some of them. and whatever you want to call it, the asphodelic comp is really nice. just a good listen the whole way through. has anyone heard the badawi album? sounds really interesting. alan!

Shadow hasn't owned the rights to any new Ninja Tune releases from the last 2 1/2 years. Although they still own the rights to some of our records, we are no longer associated with them , despite what there inclusion of numerous tracks from our back catalog on their various comps might suggest. As for Trip-Hop...name invented by journalist, but if pressed I would reckon that the main people that laid the seeds of what came to be various forms of 'trip-hop' would be Grandmaster Flash, Double D & Steinski, Coldcut/DJ Food, Depth Charge, 9 Lazy 9, DJ Shadow, DJ Krush, Massive Attack, Bomb The Bass, MARRS, and any other cut & paste/heavy sample based producers from late 80's/early 90's. I also figure that, more so than others, ourselves and Mo Wax probably put out the most records that were considered 'trip-hop' back in the day. But alas we all move on into more variations of genre defined silly ness. Jeff
