New York, NY (Top40 Charts) DJ Shadow has unveiled a new single, "Bergschrund," from his forthcoming album 'The Mountain Will Fall' (Mass Appeal Records/June 24). The song is a pulsating, icy collaboration with Berlin-based musician, composer and producer Nils Frahm. Listen here: https://soundcloud.com/massappealrecs/dj-shadow-bergschrund-feat-nils-frahm
DJ Shadow will also appear with
Run The Jewels on The
Tonight Show with
Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday, June 14, to perform "Nobody Speak," their collaboration from Shadow's new album. "Nobody Speak" hit #1 on Spotify's US Viral Chart and #5 on Shazam's
Future Hits chart, was featured on HBO's Silicon Valley and deemed "brassy and bruising" by Rolling Stone.
A North American tour in support of the new album has been announced for
September and October including two nights each in LA (Sept 28+29/Teregram Ballroom) and NY (Oct 14+15,
Music Hall of Williamsburg). See below for full tour dates. Tickets go on sale this Friday, June 10.
Says DJ Shadow on the "Bergschrund" collaboration: "Nils Frahm is an insanely smart composer. He created a sinewy, gated vintage synth line which I then expanded upon, hopefully to complimentary effect. Our track is called 'Bergschrund,' an obscure German word for a particular type of crevasse, or ice cliff, usually found on mountains at very high elevations."
DJ Shadow will host three Beats 1 shows this year, the first of which will air June 23. The show will be called DJ Shadow Presents: #radioface. His BBC Essential Mix will debut on July 2 and he created a radio station for Pandora, the Producer's Who Inspire Him Everyday: https://pdora.co/25IhBgI
'The Mountain Will Fall' is DJ Shadow's first full-length release since 2011 and finds the groundbreaking artist shifting further toward original composition, experimentation, and live instrumentation.
