Ruckus Roboticus is HOT!!!
He is the 2007 winner of the world famous NINJA TUNE SOLID STEEL radio show!! When you realise that the worlds best most creative djs are competing for this title - you know he´s a bad boy, especially when he won the title in 2003 as well..
2007 also saw the release of his debut album - Playing With Scratches on Grease records and this year sees a world tour - you´ll be hearing more from this boy for sure! We´re just waiting for the moment when he´s in Europe and we can drag him to Contraflow in Barcelona.
If you like this mix then you can find out more information about the man from Dayton, Ohio as well as being able to buy the lovingly packaged, better sounding original mix cd at

I can also recommend you pick up The Record Playa mix as well, which was the mix that won the title in 2003 (you don´t know how many time´s I´ve listened to that mix - serious!)
