Radar: DJ Shadow

What: Back with a bang, a bump and a bit of a grind, DJ Shadow has definitely rediscovered what he lost on The Outsider, and returns to form - and to the city - this December. His new set, The Less You Know The Better features a dizzyingly eclectic roll call of contributors - our favourite is his turn with Tom Vek (who, incidentally, is heading to The Masque on 11 November - and is always well worth a trip) on the ripped up, guitar-fuelled monster, Warning Call. Check it out, then buy your tickets for a night of beats that are in tune and on time.
