DJ Food is often assumed to be a single person, when, in fact, it is not–though it was formed originally by Coldcut, two DJs who collaborated together in the early nineties. These were two guys who shared a simple love for jazz and the steadily-evolving genre that was modern hip-hop. What DJ Food really is, or has become? A collaboration of DJ minds from around the globe who’ve cobbled together breaks, beats, and rhythms of all different kinds into samples for all aspiring musicians–DJs and non-DJs alike. With such huge hits as Jazz Breaks Volume 3, the stage was set and Food became more of a full-time project, and Coldcut decided to move forward in more of a remix direction, featuring poetry, hip hop and more jazz breaks that helped establish the Ninja Tune label early in the last decade.
