DJ Shadow - “Building Steam With A Grain Of Salt”

Grandiose.  Epic.  Anthemic.  Gigantic.  These words hardly describe the downbeat for this Godfatherly trip/hop and ambient composition.  It is truly bigger than that.  As soon as I hear it, I have the strange desire to stab my hands and arms into soft earth and dig.  Not so much fast or out of control, but deep, deliberately and with great care.  I dig and dig, and as I move past the mantle of our planet the song begins to engulf me.  At some point around 4 minutes, there is no Earth, no me, and no DJ Shadow.  There’s just the steam.
