Next weekend, the Ninja Tune magical mystery tour rolls into the States to celebrate its 20th anniversary with shows in New York (10/28), San Francisco (10/29) and Los Angeles (10/30). To celebrate, ChinaShop is giving away a ridiculous prize package of Ninja Tune essentials, including Volumes 1 and 2 of their 20 Years of Beats & Pieces 2CD compilations (4 CDs in total), a copy of Stevie Chick’s paperback retrospective, Ninja Tune: 20 Years of Beats & Pieces, King Cannibal’s The Way Of The Ninja mix disc, and a limited edition Bogus Order t-shirt. Oh, and if the winner happens to be in spitting distance of Manhattan or Los Angeles, we’ve got a pair of tickets to the Ninja Tune 20th Anniversary show in your area. All you have to do to be eligible to win is “like” us on the old Facebook by Thursday Oct 28th at midnight PST.
Once you’ve professed your unending “like” for us, drop us a comment to the effect that you WANNA WIN! If you are savvy enough to like us already, well done you! All current friends are eligible as well but you too have to tell us you WANT to be a winner. I don’t want to gift these amazing goodies to the undeserving! We will announce the winner by Noon on Friday Oct 29th.
We also caught up with four of our favorite Ninja Tune artists—Kid Koala, Amon Tobin, Ghislain Piorier and Eskmo—to see what they’ve got going on these days, and what it’s like being a part of one of the coolest and most groundbreaking independent labels on the planet.
