The label that first brought DJ Krush to U.S. attention, New York's Shadow Records intends to "push the envelope of the indie sound past the place where hip-hop, abstrakt, ambient, alternative, and electronica collide." This 14-track compilation meets that criterion with groovable enigmas: DJ Cam's scary-pretty Hindu-hop cut "Lost Kingdom," Diferenz's jazz-hop swirl on "Poppin' Ya Head," Da Germ's piano-and-turntable collage "Physical Chemistry," and Sharpshooters' fey Euro-rap on "Spirits Unseen." The American arm of Britain's progressive Ninja Tune label, Shadow lacks a single artist as visionary as Ninja's Amon Tobin or DJ Vadim, but its organic trip-hop aesthetic--part slacker, part beatnik, part B-Boy--comes through with all the clarity of a Miles Davis horn blast on this cool collection. --James Rotondi
