DJ Shadow, rightly regarded as one of the most influential and consistently innovative artists to emerge from music in the last 20 years, has four collections of his finest recordings released on September 25, 2012 via UMe. Reconstructed: The Best Of DJ Shadow<\/a> will be released on one single CD and double vinyl, while Reconstructed: The Definitive DJ Shadow<\/a> will be issued as a multi-disc box set. Limited to 500 copies worldwide, each set will be individually signed by DJ Shadow and will include 8 discs, 1 x 12\u201d vinyl record, as well as a booklet, featuring an essay by acclaimed music writer Dave Tompkins, and numerous photos, some exclusive, by long time Shadow collaborator B+. With stunning artwork and design by Trevor Jackson, the box set is the most ambitious and comprehensive retrospective ever assembled to represent Shadow\u2019s output. \u201cIt\u2019s never an easy task to sum up a career in one release,\u201d says Shadow, \u201cbut this box comes pretty close. This is the definitive, final document of the sound I\u2019m most known for.\u201d The box will be available exclusively from DJShadow.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

All the music across the three formats is drawn from Shadow\u2019s 20-year career – from the early pre-Mo Wax days, right up to the present and his most recent album, The Less You Know, The Better. Perhaps most exciting to Shadow fans is the inclusion of two brand new tracks, including the pop masterpiece \u201cListen,\u201d featuring legendary vocalist Terry Reid.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
