(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2010-08-28

We're still celebrating 20 years of musical activism from the english label Ninja Tune! The huge boxset is now coming out very soon... Parties in Paris and London are starting to get sold-out quite fast, and french magazine Trax has released a special (Ninja Tune 20 Ans...), in which I've written 3 articles. The first one is about 20 of the rarest pieces of wax released by the label. The second is a selection of 20 astonishing or stunning remixes, you might have downloaded its soundtrack for a deeply blunted evening by now... The third is about the dark side of the label, with a selection of 20 psychedelic albums. Here's the soundtrack to this article: the dark side of Ninja Tune!!
