In addition to his traditionally recorded material, Madlib was constantly in demand for his mixing and remixing skills. In 2002 the Trojan label gave him free rein to mix their classic dub and reggae catalog, and he produced Blunted in the Bomb Shelter Mix, a reference to his Bomb Shelter studio located in the basement of the Stones Throw office. Numerous artists, from Jill Scott to the Beastie Boys, enlisted his remixing expertise for their own records. His most notable remix project came in 2003, when jazz label Blue Note approached him to remix and manipulate much of their catalog. Having the utmost respect for the label's work, he took extreme care with Shades of Blue, which was released to critical acclaim.
