I could listen to James Lavelle talking about anything and everything that interests him... for hours! He's an encyclopaedic bundle of enthusiasm. His music has taught me so much about everyone else's music for 25 years now, and I owe him a lot.
same here.
The UNKLE album _Psyence Fiction_ is bloody brilliant. I miss Mo' Wax Records something fierce.
Cal Wiggums: So many killer good trax on that album -- especially the instrumentals or non-vocal sound-collages!
@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown That secret track on the CD with the VU sample is cool. Press play & hold down index
still cannot wait for the boxset reissue of psyence fiction
You can thank DJ Shadow for that. Levelle had very little involvement in that album. All the songs are written and produced entirely by DJ Shadow. Lavelle was more like the creative director and consultant, being that he was the founder of the label for that album, Mo'Wax. He also hired all the guests and features on the album.
@@informationnotfound The Elba show Hijack features a song off that as its theme.
"James Lavelle was one of these guys who was a nerd but managed to turn it into cool. I think of him as a breakbeat version of Quentin Tarantino. A guy who built a whole aesthetic around nerd knowledge, the kind of guy who has a huge collection of Star Wars memorabilia and vintage sneakers. The Mo’ Wax records were very stylized and well-packaged."
- Simon Reynolds
Wow, this legend opens up with "Heat" right off the bat. Of course.
Greatest film ever made. Bar none.
Chills every time I hear the opening beats of Entroducing... Absolutely one of the best albums ever released, and a desert island disc, no doubt.
Thanks for THX1138 very cool film ...
I love how he goes into all the different tangents with respect to Neneh Cherry.
Unkle 'Psyence Fiction' is hands down one of the greatest albums of all time, Period ( and it's in my personal Top 5 favs )
What are the other four?
I’d put the Road Part 1 up there too 😎
My favorite episode.
His comments on Watchmen were spot on.
MINE TOO MAN
James Lavelle may never get the praise he truly deserves. The most underrated ear in music, art collector, track selekta as a DJ, and head of UNKLE, pure underground bliss.
I'm in the middle of an UNKLE retrospective and came across this.
Lavelle is so eloquent about his influences and loves. Brilliant episode.
I love the production and storytelling of this video. I knew of Lavelle mostly from UNKLE, but how vividly he describes both music and film is equally lovely.
James Lavelle was a hero of mine in the 90s as a teen. I meet him once at Bar Rhumba when Shadow was spinning soul 45s. He was the coolest. 20 years or so on, Lavelle remains a true gent with a real head for knowledge and sound that's so evident in this video. What a G.
A telling (see also; warts’n’all) doco was released about James a while back called ‘The Man From MoWax’. Seek it out. Well worth your time. Fascinating geeza.
James Lavelle is one of the greats. Genius is an understatement. Listen to Unklesounds: Edit music for a film, or Do androids dream of electric beats. Call me back when your mind gets un-blown.
DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC BEATS❤❤❤
hey i listened to it round 10 years ago. it REALLY changed my music perseption
Dude could be a film reviewer
James Lavelle, is just legend man. I love his work, he always brings quality and a uniqueness to his work.
I could talk about tons of things James has done for culture but I just want to thank him for releasing dr octagon on mo wax for the English market !!!! The triple vinyl packaging and artwork is pure beauty!!!!
I love finding out where his inspiration and influence comes from.
Me too !!
Its incredible. I've been listening Unkle (and Dj Shadow) all my adult life and I think it's the type of music that never ages. His tracks and records sound as great today as they did during release. Somehow I never got interested in James private life. And now here it is, first interview i see and he mentions his favourite movie (in my Top 3), Watchmen (i own original printing) and od course Dj Shadow. How amazing is that?
He seemed really relaxed and able to talk , reference shadow with respect and pride, totally cool with it all and happy with where he is at the moment, sure, he had it all , but he paid the price and reinvented himself.man from mo wax!!
Heat Rules
De La Soul 😍😍😍😍
Midnight in a Perfect World is my favorite song ever.
Thank you for this one, Amoeba!
Finally someone worth watching again, it's been a while. Thanks Amoeba.
Ending with Endtroducing. Perfect. You rock James. I Miss Mo'Wax! So glad I have original pressings of Endtroduing and Preemptive Strike. Which I bought from Amoeba Berkeley I might add.
What a great interview and expertly edited. 👏👏
Another great one.
God Bless to James Lavelle everytime...
One of the best videos yet!
Finalmente ENDTRODUCING... 😍😍😍😍😍
Amazing and very different choices. I love Unkle
English folks romanticize Los Angeles through Michael Mann films...that Psyence Fiction record was fire back in the day.
It was this TH-cam video that made wanna watch Heat (1995) although i wouldn't see the movie yet until several months later after this video uploaded, and i loved the movie.
great pics. some of Lavelle's productions are personally important to my life.
UNKLE "Never, Never, Land" - a masterpiece
Just hearing him say shit like “ me and shadow where just driving down the road” is crazy to me cheers James you the man!
After tomorrow he will play here in Budapest… can’t wait
Solid all the way through. Choice cuts and no ego stance. Love!!!
The Road Part 1 is one of the most brilliant albums of our time
They got comics, movies, and records!! I'm in!!
Some Okie Dude Three of my favorite things
@@brownyuio Same here chief.
Loved Jamesy since the Rabbit in your Headlights days... absolutely brilliant mind on that boy.
Great episode.
Yes! I am in love with DJ Shadow!!💛
Great minds think alike. Heat is a masterpiece!!!!! Michael Mann is the man!
Unkle stirs my soul and ❤

Love it !
Bless you and fair play
Your War Stories album. I mean..How the f.. If I had to listen to only 3 albums for the rest of my life, it would be one of them. Pure genius.
Yay finally James !
Tremendous choices 👍
Not sure when that piece was recorded ....Basquiat - Rage To Riches on DVD can be bought in England . Also its been on TV a few times on the BBC .
Excellent!
Midnight in a perfect world got me into techno and brown paper bag got me into drum & bass
awesome, each record has a story for him.
I think he's a nice guy. Could you do an episode with Jim Jarmusch?
That would be excellent
That maze is sweet.. Thanks
I'm lucky to see him performed live
He just blew my mind. I never knew "Buffalo Stance" was a redo or that her Neneh Cherry's husband put out a record.
cameron mc vey (ncherry's husband) co-wrote and produced a lot of her music as well as some early massive attack AND the sugababes' overload which I think is a really really great track
woah - legend, THX1138 is one of my fave films. Not that many people love it - nice 👍👍
I love James
More people should see this
Yep. Killed it.
Spot on about the times we live in.
legend
Oh my god, he's really cool. His influencies come from everything
I want James Lavelle to tell me stories of music❤️
James lavelle doesn’t get the respect he deserves,great dvd by the way.I remember when my wife Rebecca left me,I wasn’t happy.Good work amoeba.Stay strong.
hes soooo coooool
What a legend. I'd sacrifice a nut to see an episode with Shadow or Run The Jewels.
You are not alone.
BEST YET.
I pretty much just bought every one of these albums that I didn’t already have.
Soo goooood
Such an underrated musician
*mo' wax forevah!*
great taste; honest choice.
War Stories is exceptional.
God I love Unkle
Not a huge fan of most his music picks, but most of the movies are top-notch picks! :D
Heat is one of my very favorite movies ever.
I'm guessing many of those picks are also based somewhere in his mind about how he could dice them into his music. Minds like his are always thinking creatively and big picture. It's fascinating to watch what's probably going through his mind as he speaks.
What a cool guy, what a cool video.
Dante Spinotti was the director of photography on "Heat" -- but agree that it is Michael Mann's finest film, just head of "Thief."
Yes thief is a great film. Another I'd mention is collateral. I'm still waiting on Mann to put out another epic. Supposedly they're working on a heat sequel/prequel.
WHY ISN'T SOMEONE ASKING ME IF I BUY VINYL
Do you buy vinyl? *DO DO DO DOO DO DO TEE DO DEE*
HOW DO I KNOW IF THEY DON'T ASK ME!?!?!?
Especially in that super douchey effeminate hipster voice.
because vinyl sucks
Derek January..what's in your bag?
talented musicians have interesting taste in culture and art :D
Guys all over the place, I like it :)
A need one hour of this. why 10 min?
Maybe my favorite episode of WIMB.
Tin Tin, Moebius, Storm, XIII, Asterix, Blake and Mortimer, Alex, Luc Orient etc.
Well I guess I'll watch Heat tonight. Been a while.
Chris Grady “the action is the juice”
San Fran Disco!
DJ SHADOW & JAMES LAVELLE.... DRUMS OF DEATH Y'ALL.....
What's the music playing over The Watchmen? Not the Bob Dylan track.
Hey, I STILL BUY VINYL YOU KNOW!
I like unkle up to when he did album with Thom York (rabbit in the headlights?) and Ian brown , however, after that it was law of diminishing returns regarding creativity and quality.
Nice guy though.
Hello mate you’re looking well x
We are 138!
i honestly feel i've just been on a journey
*SAAAAAAAAAAAAY UUUUUUUNKLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*
Boom ........Shadow.........
James please allow US dollars for The Road: Part II / LOST HIGHWAY Vinyl when the album comes since I'm from the US
We have it on order at Amoeba! It's out 4/12 in the States. You can get the LP from us online if you don't live near one of our stores.
Oh thank the Lord thank you so much you guys are gods
What’s the name of that intro tune ? Sounds familiar !!
