Project Details
Bio:
KID606 is dedicated to bringing his uniquely reckless fucked up and beautiful music to our fucked up and beautiful world. Insipired by the best of electronica, punk, jungle, hiphop, bass, dancehall and techno, Kid606 Fuses it all together with a love of pop culture that Andy Warhol would approve of. Apart from running the labels Tigerbeat6, Shockout, and Tigerbass, Kid606 has performed all around the world many times over, and released records on highly regarded labels such as Ipecac, Wichita, Mille Plateaux, Fatcat, Souljazz, and Carpark. His highly original productions helped spearhead and define the edgy and confrontational glitch and mashup styles that are now common in modern music production. His album "Down with the scene" (2000) was a landmark release for the burgeoning international electronic music scene, with everything from hardcore ragga jungle and serene ambient to abstract IDM and the dubby soul classic "Secrets 4 Sale" with Mike Patton. Things only got more exciting as Kid606 delved deep into the seedy overworld of mainstream music with critically acclaimed unofficial remixes that many people wanted to hear yet no one else was willing to make. All the while releasing his own original and diverse productions as well as official remixes for Amon Tobin, the Rapture, the Locust, Foetus, Depeche Mode, The Bug, Peaches, Dälek, Ellen Allien, Saul Williams, Super Furry Animals, and countless others.
His new album "Shout at the Döner" drops late April, and is easily his most accomplished record to date, it combines all the brash and exciting plunderphonic and sampledelic elements he is best known for with a whole new world of uncharacteristically musical and danceable hooks and styles which are both fresh and timeless. 606 draws on some of his biggest electronic influences like LFO, AFX, Mike Ink, Green Velvet, Mouse on Mars, the Prodigy, Daft Punk, Shizuo, Mr. Oizo and Giorgio Moroder, to make bold and powerful songs about the decline of America, leaving California, broken hearts,drunken hook-ups, social phobias, soulless partying, economic downfall, gnarly basslines, ego worship, moving to berlin, diva vocals, baltimore club, obsessive compulsive disorder, the best parts of horror movies, acidhouse, ADHD, shameless irony, speed garage, megalomania, LSD, satanism and the ever prevalent Döner Kebab, arguably europe's best late night cuisine to consume on the way home from from the club, (Especially if you had to much to drink!).
We think this release is the Kid's first successful stab at what we like to call "schizotronics" actually combining elements of many different Dance music styles into new songs without pretension,trying to hard to fit into any trendy genre, or losing the joy and energy of the driving beats and basslines that make music so fun in the first place. Maybe it's intelligent dance music for people who thought they didnt like intelligent dance music, Maybe it's unintelligent vacant technopunk trash, but you will definitely want to listen to it more then once to find out for yourself!

So who ended up winning and whatnot?
hey guys had a blast doing this track. tell me what you think?
and umm..... Get Down Mr. Wobbles!
whooo-128kbps low rate mp3s? a producers nightmare? remeber the tapes, the cracklin´needles, the noisy jacks?
YOU DON´T LIKE THE SOUNDS - MAKE SOME ON YOUR OWN!
Ableton Live 7 LE is not enough motivation?
DON´T JOIN THE SESSION!
thng- thanks for finding the bug, we will fix it right away! if anyone else is having a problem, please email us via info 'at' tracksandfields.com
thanks!
Oh I see, having apostrophes in the song title was killing the SQL. Bummer since the track is called Mr. Wobble's Nightmare. Anyway, not sure if my upload worked but hopefully it did. Full title is "Mr. Wobble's Nightmare (ASCDI's Funky Book Report)".
Wow dudes, this website is pretty rough. My first upload failed. Um ... I'm gonna try again.
After listening to the original track it is clear, that some remixing is required. Unfortunately the samples having ungly artefacts from the compression. Would be better to have wav files instead of this low-rate mp3s
Ahh... Just a comment... Live 7 LE isn't really a motivating price. And you'll probably know: If you want to pay peanuts, be prepared to get monkeys ;-)
Did i mention that i already own Live 8?
Could be a little more motivation to get e.g. a free cover design for the next cd or a free mastering - just my 2 cents.
We can not remix using 128kbps mp3 files.
Not if Kid606 and the others evolved expect some good and polish sound quality.
And what about de winner remix: the remixer will have to redo all the track!
We want wav!
yeah I am curious if we can get higher quality files as well, these 128 kbps mp3s are bleh. anyone ?
The origin files is mp3 128 kbps...
Why not a .wav? :-\
this seems to be a technical issues. you will be able to download the proper files asap!
yer whats with the 64kbps mp3s? are there going to be any better ones?
64kbps mp3s :?
It ll be a great experience to be part of this contest, keep rocking this fucked up world KID !!!!!
Respect;
Haru
