He's a bit more eclectic than that, but if you had to pigeon-hole him, that would be a reasonable label.  If yo haven't, try to see a live show.  He's very diverse, and brings a proper skills based performance in this day and age of DJs who are all style and no substance.

Love the Shadow. More (anything?) from Endtroducing would be ace too. Or, dare I suggest (it's long, but awesome), the "What does your soul look like" EP.

I probably don't know your cousins over here, but plenty of people get this sort of dance/trance stuff on the left side of the Atlantic - maybe not a whole lot who listen and/or post on RP, though.  Maybe it's largely a generational thing in the US - who knows?

A song and artist I first heard on RP . . . a song I now own.

Amazing how that happens, eh?

Shadow's a talented guy, but I fear that he peaked with Endtroducing.

Reggae is fine for coding.
Sometimes I even find myself in the mood for classics (Mahler, Mozart) while I'm coding (C#).

Thanks for your reply on the question, 'who the heck is Mongrel?' Deadline, though it's "a little" (three years after I asked that question) belated

I find it quite boring; what,what... and play no video games, by the by. I would classify this as noise and not music.

Actually, I'm quite fond of DJ Shadow. And while this isn't one of my most favorite tracks (Uptown Bollywood Nights probably holds that honor), however it's still got a bit of chair-dance quality.
