📖 About this album

DJ Shadow debut album, released in 1996. Built entirely from samples, it was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the first album composed entirely of samples. A pillar of instrumental hip-hop and experimental electronic music.

📝 Our review

Endtroducing is an album that changed what was understood as possible in electronic music. DJ Shadow built an entire album from samples, the first to do so this radically and coherently. The result is dark, melancholic and deeply cinematic. "What Does Your Soul Look Like" in its various parts still functions as a total listening experience. One of the most influential records of the nineties.
