Kid Koala
- Editor's Picks
Ninja Tune's wacky turntablist-genius Kid Koala lands in Beijing for a solo show. Watch for the Koala's signature move: using the turntable to generate new melodies by speeding up and slowing down the track. RMB30 (presale)-RMB50 (door).

KID KOALA, the undisputable genius in the world of turntablism…
Since joining UK label Ninja Tune in 1997, Eric San aka KID KOALA has been leading a one-man-and-many-turntables revolution mixing traditional jazz, hip hop, blues, funk and ska with mind-blowing sound collages.
Making what is possibly the best use of coughing, sneezing and chicken sounds in recorded history, this Chinese-Canadian’s knack for comic sampling has become stuff of legend. Looking beyond the mere self-boasting scratching techniques, Eric’s focus on the overall listening experience saw him approach sampling with such unparalleled originality and geeky honesty that in no time he became one of the most blindly adored DJs anywhere.
Back in Beijing for a solo show where anything and everything is permitted, expect this Kid to have y’all style-bending somewhere between the chicken-shack and the hail-stack, up the groove, getting down and back. This is the Thursday party of the year y’all!
树熊男孩(Kid Koala),唱盘手世界中毫无疑问的天才……
自从1997年加入英国Ninja Tune厂牌,Eric San又名Kid Koala就引导了一场一人操作多个唱机的革命,用令人兴奋的声音抽象美术,混合了传统的爵士、hip hop、布鲁斯、放克和ska音乐。
可能是录音史上最好地运用咳嗽、打喷嚏、还有小鸡叫声的人,这个加拿大华裔凭借对有趣采样的熟练技术成为了传奇。Eric以优良无
