Full disclosure. I'm a huge DJ Shadow fan that has never seen him live. I've discussed the reasons before. It's why I love finding gems like this so I can live vicariously through all the lucky people who have witnessed a live DJ Shadow performance. This one happens to be bonkers.

Back in 2002 Shadow released his third LP, The Private Press, which featured a limited edition version that included an additional single track CD. That song is what you see in the video above, Pushin' Buttons Live, which featured guests Cut Chemist from Jurassic 5 and DJ Nu-Mark.

This performance was also included on the live DVD "In Tune and On Time" which was also released in 2002. Click the video and enjoy those three banging on the Akai MPC samplers.
