The velocity control on this performance was ill. None of the others have I seen him match this one. As a comparatively whack turntablist, some days you’re in the zone and he was definitely in one that day! Legendary performance.

-continued due to character limit- Scratching is not as easy as chucking a record on a turntable, going nuts with the crossfader and spinning the vinyl back and forth in a rapid motion. Every sound he cuts, scratches, mixes and juggles, is spot on. Step out of the box man.

Be nice! Koala is one of the coolest guys I know and if you knew him, you'd say the same. It's easy to observe his insane talent, but he surpasses his talents with much awesomeness and is a serious fan of music. Criticism totally validates his pure genius.

Saw him open at liberty state park NJ for Radiohead. Just 4 weeks later half of the stages background would have fallen on 9-11-01. And the grass where we stood and saw Kid Koala amaze us would be a M*A*S*H unit. That only made that concert with him more amazing. I loved seeing him here live. I was right up by the stage at liberty so we saw him close. And on two giagantic Screens that belonged to Radiohead.

As a matter of fact, he would most certainly have. He, like the others, has used existing material, and have played other musicians' creations, which is understandable if you look at the names of the ones he's been playing with. Instead of proving - again - that you don't know what you're talking about, I would recommend that you have a llok at his biography. And maybe, at a jazz-history book as well...

oh, c'mon! by "sample" i mean one particular sound. Like one note played by trumpet/piano/guitar. Many of this kind of artists use those "samples". So its like u would say, that Mozart used someone else's work, because he played same notes as his predecessors. There is a proverb in polish language: "O gustach sie nie dyskutuje", meaning: "It's pointless to argue about tastes". I like it, you don't - it's ok, as long as we can discuss with no hate. Oh - and it sounds great. :D

You know, being close-minded and reactionary doesn't make you part of any elite (especially when we talk about music, and even more about Jazz), it just shows that you don't know what you're talking about... Oh, and if a DJ is not a musician (as you said, he's playing something that "isn't even technically an instrument."), then I assume you don't consider conductors as being musicians either?

It takes a lot of skill to be "playing jazz on a turntable like that"? How sad: To work that hard and sound so terrible. He's got a recording of a "swing" rhythm section 'backing' him, and he's 'freestyling' (whatever that means) jazz, so he should swing. Especially if they're using other peoples' work--and not playing something that "isn't even technically an instrument."
@tangneyk16 жыл бұрын
Ok... so he worked hard at it. It still comes down to whether it sounds good or not. And I'm sorry to say this does not. He's trying to sound like a jazz musician, and failing horribly. The articulation is not right. His sense of swing is way off. And his ideas are pretty lame.
