DJ Shadow is currently previewing work from his upcoming new album via his website. A video for a track called '3 Freaks' is presently available to stream from http://www.djshadow.com.
On the website, Shadow explains how the new album differs from his earlier work: "Stylistically, it's very different from 'The Private Press'. Some have said 'Press' was an inward-looking album. If that's true, than this album is the opposite, and that suits me just fine. I've also stopped worrying if my changing taste in music costs me fans. You can't please everybody all the time, but you can please yourself."
On his upcoming live dates at Wireless, his first solo shows in more than three years, he added: "I think the time is right to scale back and concentrate on putting a show together that highlights what I'm doing now, rather than an exhaustive retrospective. Maybe after two more albums it'll be time for another super tour, but for now I think we'll keep it to a size we can all digest."
