This Tribute Mix To Beck’s ‘Odelay’ Is Incredible

Breaking it down sample-by-sample...

It's now 20 years since Beck released 'Odelay'.

Then known for his anti folk work, the songwriter charged head-long in a fresh direction – with more than a little help from the Dust Brothers.

The hip-hop production team re-configured Beck's work, with their labyrinthine array of samples resulting in one of the decade's most striking albums.

DJs Moneyshot and Cheeba have joined forces to steer a new mix, exploring the influences, samples, edits, and remixes that would craft the 'Odelay' universe.

It makes for fascinating listen. Part of the always-reliable Solid Steel mix series, you can tune in below.
