A true musical visionary and illustrator, Kid Koala stands as one of the key figures who pushed the art of turntablism into wholly uncharted territory — radiating a singular, unmistakable originality even among the wildly eccentric, fiercely individual turntablists of the '90s and '00s — with records packed full of scratch ideas only he could conceive, fusing craftsman's technique with unbridled humor. Using the turntable as an instrument, he creates rhythms through astonishing scratching, dismantles and rebuilds mixes via cut-up and collage, and recorded the whole thing using turntables alone. Storytelling narratives were built by hand, DIY-style, with an 8-track recorder. Poised between experimental music and hip-hop scratch collage, chill-out, jazz, lounge and downtempo, this is the record of a quirky, delightful adventure racing through a warped yet brilliantly one-of-a-kind inner world. A fresh, elegant masterpiece album that will never fade. You can't help but fall for his skill, his sheer force and his unique charm. 14 tracks in all, plus a bonus 2-track flexi-disc.
