DJ Shadow a Sellout?

Upon the recent release of DJ Shadow's "The Outsider," I've heard some hating from various people. Hell, all you hipsters have to do is hit up Pitchfork to know that it ain't any good (5.8). OK, I truly I haven't listened to the album much, but I will agree that what I have heard is not at all the Shadow of yesteryear. A little more "mainstream" I guess some folks would say.

Well, whether or not Josh Davis is a sellout is for you to decide. I am only here to bring you what I know for sure is the good shit! So, here tonight I bring to y'all some old DJ Shadow, peppered throughout with other goodies, mixed by Diplo and Q-bert in the first hour and then by Shadow himself in hour number two. Check the tracklists (and be sure to comment on any mistakes and/or omissions):
