Listen : DJ Shadow + DJ Krush live @ Mo’ Wax Headz Tour, 1994
Listen to more than 1h30 of DJ Shadow & DJ Krush delivering a great and eclectic selection at the Mo’ Wax Headz night in Manchester, 1994.
Here’s the recording of the DJ Shadow & DJ Krush set recorded live at the Mo’ Wax Headz Tour night Sankeys, Manchester on 9th November 1994.
A large selection of US Hip-Hop form the golden era, Funk, early Mo’ Wax releases, a bit of Jungle… It’s all about eclectism.
All credit goes to DoodleBug, the promoter of the event, for this recording. They released it in 2009 I think. I just put all the parts together, added a short jingle at the start just for fun, and re-uploaded it for your listening pleasure.
Also I found in my archives the original flyer for the event, click to view full size.

Those were the days…
BBBBBOOOOOMMMM!!!! This is a pleasureable experience for the ear googles
I remember the Headz night at Sankey’s Soap well. I was at university in Manchester when the Headz tour came to town and already had some Mo’ Wax 12″s and some of the early LPs but had never seen any of the artists live. I saw DJ Shadow a few times after that but not many others. James Lavelle was a huge inspiration to me (I later set up a couple of small record labels myself). Have been loving the mixes on here and will pull out my Mo’ Wax collection when I get home. Keep up the great work!
Excellent mix! Thanks for the upload.. Can anyone tell me where to find the Ahmad ‘Back in the Day’ remix track? Sample is from ‘Windy C’ by 100% Pure Poison I believe.
Hi Mowax how do i play or download this mix?? forgive my stupidity and Thank you
Hi, no problem. If you can’t see the embedded Mixcloud player above you probably miss the flash plugin. Try the Mixcloud page here: http://www.mixcloud.com/dalecooper/dj-shadow-dj-krush-live-mo-wax-headz-tour-manchester-09111994

I was there that night too. I saw DJ Shadow at his first gig in the UK at Bar Rumba at the end of ’93.
