DJ Shadow hasn’t had a new record since 2006′s The Outsiders (or, for a lot of you, since 1996′s Entroducing …..). He’s marking his return with two new tracks from his upcoming album, due sometime next year. Both “Def Surrounds Us” and “I’ve Been Trying” are available from djshadow.com as free downloads for today only; next week they’ll be on sale as digital downloads. You can try to get them right now, though his site’s been slammed all day. Or you can listen below:

Really liking Def Surrounds Us. Sounds like a dark Private Press track. I’ve Been Trying sounds too much like an inoffensive Outsider b-side though. Still, as long as he stays away from hyphy, I’m pumped for this new album.
