About

If DJ Shadow ever aspired to be the Ennio Morricone of beatmakers, <i>The Mountain Will Fall</i> shows he’s already there—innovating and executing with style and precision. The album consolidates the Northern California DJ's many personas—found-sound scion, musical adventurer, rap DJ—into a cohesive whole. Run the Jewels runs riot over Shadow’s blueprints on the political “Nobody Speak.” He puts it down for his home state on “California,” uncoiling bass like a cobra striking in slo-mo. “Ashes to Oceans” is the album’s signature beat suite that stands among his best—conveying emotion and drama with the deftness of a classical conductor.
