Originally produced by Coldcut on the Ninja Tune independent record label, the DJ Food project started in 1990 on the premise of providing metaphorical "food for DJs". DJ Food released the Jazz Brakes series, with Jazz Brakes Volume 3 being the most successful. The records consisted of collections of breaks, loops and samples, ideal for mixing, remixing and producing the trademark Ninja Tune blend of jazz & hip hop.

  • Originally produced by Coldcut on the Ninja Tune independent record label, the DJ Food project started in 1990 on the premise of providing metaphorical "food for DJs". DJ Food released the Jazz Brakes series, with Jazz Brakes Volume 3 being the most successful. The records consisted of collections of breaks, loops and samples, ideal for mixing, remixing and producing the trademark Ninja Tune blend of jazz & hip hop. Volumes 4 and 5 of the Jazz Brakes series, co-created with DJ / producer PC transcend the breakbeat compilation format to stand as artist albums in their own right. The later DJ Food albums have developed with shades of Latin, dub, techno, ambient, and Jungle flavouring the funk. The 1995 album, A Recipe For Disaster was a conscious move away from the Jazz Brakes volumes to form more of an identity as an artist, and a remix album of tracks from all 6 LPs, entitled Refried Food was released the following year. Their last release, Kaleidoscope, featured guest artists including Bundy K. Brown (formerly of Tortoise, Directions in Music, Pullman) and voiceover artist and jazz poet, Ken Nordine.

  • DJ Food is een belangrijk afgezant van het Britse label Ninja Tune. In de jaren '90 had hij samen met Coldcut een wekelijkse radioshow (Solid Steel) en produceerden zij in dit samenwerkingsverband verschillende albums (Recipe for Disaster, Journeys by DJ, ColdKrushCuts, the Blech mix compilations op Warp Records). De muziek, die overwegend technologisch is, kenmerkt zich door vele akoestische en realistische geluidseffecten en kent naast dominante hiphop en breakbeat een verscheidenheid aan invloeden zoals jazz, funk, latin, maar ook dub, techno en ambient. Het vroegste succes was het door Coldcut geproduceerde album Jazz Breaks Vol. 3, gevolgd door 4 en 5. De in totaal 5 volumes en het daaropvolgende album a recipe for disaster werden in 1996 in een remix uitgebracht op het album Refried Food. Zijn laatste album is Kaleidoscope. Matt Black en Jonathan More (alias Coldcut) begonnen met DJ FOOD-serie Jazz Brakes. In de loop van de jaren '90 ontstond een hechte samenwerking met Patrick Carpenter (PC) Paul Brook, Paul Rabiger, Strictly Kev en Issac Elliston.
