this is one the greatest moments in modern music history
well said
I actually cried seeing his live
wuss
Tard
most tasteful DJ on the planet. respect!
Seriously underrated. Kind of sad he isn’t mentioned in more “Best DJ’s” discussions.
becaus he is out of competition:)
i like the song, the idea but the execution leaves my to question why even scratch over it, just let it play this time
Those who know, know.
Genuinely.
Because he IS the best
who else you know who can remix a slow song like this? this guy is a God on the turn table
Good point taking a melodic AND slow song and mixing it is SO SO much harder, completely unforgiving... Like watch style dance, The slower it is the easier it is for people to notice your mistakes and the more it's related to Melody versus heavy beats when things don't pair it's so painfully obvious.
Listening because I miss my Mom. She died at age 81, from Covid, at 2:02 pm on Jan 21, 2021. Moms are magical. Spend as much time as possible with her.
Very sorry to hear that
Lost mine around the same time. Hope you're doing as well as possible friend
@@jaceshaffer8104 I'm so sorry. I hope the same for you.
Listening for the first time in a decade, my best friend showed it to me in highschool and passed about a year ago. Reminds me of him
@@leftovernoise I am so sorry. You must be heartbroken. My heart is with you.
how do you play a record like it’s an instrument? kid koala never ceases to amaze me. listening to his records always leaves me wondering how he’s doing what he does, but seeing it live only leaves me wondering even more, truly unmatched
Best video ever on UA-cam. I cried.
AndyCassrol same here.
Just saw this live last night. Incredible... Can't stop listening now
The guy's face holding the camera in the background says it all.
That's Alan this is in Madison for la Fett Musique electronique it's always a good time real good DJs every summer plus other gigs all year remain in night face book
Saw him perform Moon River in London in 2005...never thought I'd be listening to that at a gig! Unforgettable!
I think I was at this gig, wasn't he supporting and had none of his records, had to spend a day buying enough vinyl for a set?
This had me absolutely mesmerized... amazing.
So dope, saw him perform this live earlier this month. Was absolutely blown away.
Me too!
He was _absurdly_ good in Montreal at the Jazz Fest :)
lucky

Okay. He's using old records to manipulate and create new sounds which are reminiscent of genres such as post-rock with the crescendos and is making an ultimately unique and interesting song while still staying original to a song nearly everyone is familiar with, which, believe you me, is not easy. Plus the fact that this is entirely mixed live with incredible attention to detail and precise scratches that don't take away from the rhythm whatsoever takes serious talent. And it sounds good.
I come from 10 years in the future and even today this performance stands out from anything I've ever seen from DJs.
This is hands down the most beautiful and touching performance I have ever seen or heard on vinyl.
I'm literally weeping
T G T 💫 🙌🙌
110% A+greed
💫 🍃 💛💛🍃
I gave him a hug afterwards and was the best one ever
2023 and im weeping too. this was and always will be amazing@@develupa
you're so lucky
True art form of turntablism. No laptops (serrato) or any beat machines used for sampling. Just three turntables and a mixer. Real skill and on-the-spot mixing that not too many dj's these days do and that's why it is a classic
When we started turntabling we didn't have no fancy schmancy pitch controls. You had to spin the Schellack in the right speed. Kids these days are spoiled with their electricity and their "vinyls". If youre a real dj you only need two phonautographs a lead cylinder and some creativity.
it wasnt just 3 turntables and a mixer, he also had a reverb pedal. Still awesome though
That mixer definitely has some of the same effects
One of the best routine I’ve ever seen✨✨✨✨
I don't know how many times ive come back to this video over the last few years, this is one of my favorite moments on UA-cam, Thanks for capturing it Ankur!
This video is magical on acid. Thought he was an actual koala for a second.
Drugs are soooo coooool.
Broadening one's horizon is generally a good idea in my opinion. Maybe you should try it before you knock it :)
"With a bit of luck, his life was ruined forever.
Always thinking that just behind some narrow door in all his favorite bars, men in red woolen shirts were getting incredible kicks from things he'll never know."
MAAAAAAAAN
That’s what I was thinking when he started going crazy with the mixer lmao
Such a cool, happy guy. Every shot of him performing is a shot of him smiling, having a good time, playing for his audience enthusiastically.
Such an artist.
Koala puts the able in turntable.
Just saw this live in Victoria, astounding!
It really doesn't matter who likes or dislike his work, this man is really talented and passionate! and that, is over everything else!
This is amazing. He has got so much talent.
is impossible to watch this without crying, some people cries watching movies, I cry listening to music
Kicks so much ass even live... i love kid koala :)
Absolute skills, such a creative spin on a classic. Thx for the upload
Mindblowingly good.
Ηe is a fucking crazy dude,love this!
it sounds like when loneliness sing to the outerspace
and I cried
(sorry for my poor english I'm a fucking foreigner but try my best to connect to the world, to believe there is love and peace inside the human beings)
I felt like crying too
Wicked Rollin' & Scratchin'!
Fantano?
I too am here because of the Melon.
fantano
Yes
Forever
Where did melon boy talk about kid koala?
I just found kid koala 4 levels down from seatching for someone else, from Ingenuity fest in Cleveland Ohio yesterday. So blessed and grateful! At 70, a Mom and G-Ma, this is one of my favorite songs. I had no idea who he is nor what he does. I was literally blown away and my heart broke open and my eyes leaked. And then, his parting verbiage, " take care of each other" put me over the top! 💜🎶 🌟
Angels all around and Miracles Never Cease! 🙏
This movie nostaglia movie makes me smile!
wow !!!
oober cool fellow... your mamas favorite dj
that Boards of Canada shirt that guy is wearing though
...girl.. that's not his colour
If I'm not mistaken, he said it was number 93 yesterday in Paris (awesome show by the way).
10年前にこの動画を見つけてから何度も見てるんだけど、初めて観た時の感動は何度見ても色褪せないんだよな。最高だぜキッドコアラ！！ありがとうキッドコアラ！
There's DJs and there's artists, this guy is an artist, love the song.
Did time just stop, that was really fucking good.
Sync on point
DELTRON 3030!!
... Needs to give the Kid more props ;) But YEAH
Jacob Collier can't be compared to this version.
Koala's version is his own thing & still moves me in ways after almost a decade.
One can go into a loop for days by listening to both of these improvisations back to back.
In the end, it's a win for Team Music 🏆
DROP BEAR!! You know why.
He took that to a new level@that tone play solo?my head blew up!!BOOM!WOW!
and tonight he havnt said which show # it was but he still had the outfit
This is fucking magical
nuts nuts nuts
good ear on this koala
lmao
Guys I finally figured it out.....he's a wizard!
i know, and i also listen to music like Autechre, so i know... but Kid Koala is so good in what he does! Just miss a big Dj to put some funky and beats and make some noise!
that just brought tears to me eyes
Me too!
He was on storage wars lol
I don't know- the kid loves what he does, and loves his mother. He's adding a new sound to a classic song to show it to a different generation of people. I don't get how that's so hard to understand. I love my mother.
Seriously tho. Best song. I keep coming back to this. Koala, you rock! I wanna hear you do more super bittersweet mixes of oldies ... I would give my left nostril.
Those who listen to Kid koala have a genuine soul. That’s all I must say.
When I saw him live, he elaborated that his mom always urged him to be a surgeon because of how steady his hands were. However, in the end she wanted him to be happy and supported him.
the noises sound like the sounds in the line at space mountain
why does this make me cry so hard every time i dont know anythign about moon river or turntablism
There are times in your life when you have to stand in awe and just enjoy the moment for what it is. This is one of them.
Just saw him perform this at Dirtybird Campout. Made me shed a tear, so beautiful
Seriously, thank you for capturing this.
TURNTABLISM
I remember hearing Kid Koala back in 2001
killer vid... I wish it didn' t exist
wait.. what!?
Aske Floppykat too... beautiful
Brings a tear, easily one of the greatest out there.
smoothy
i personally believe turntablist 'music' needs to be seen.
listening their songs/albums is great and all,
but when you see what they're actually doing, even if you don't fully comprehend it,
it's like a hundred times better.
A collaboration with Dj Krush would be dreamy
To this day one of the greatest routines of all time. I feel so fortunate to have seen him perform this live (2013 in toronto) and to say it had an impact on the crowd is an understatement - legit a whole group of grown folk in tears. Salute Kid Koala
Kid Koala was dressed up in a Koala outfit as he had lost a bet with his manager the result of which he was supposed to do 100 gigs dressed up like that... this was I think show #50 with him wearing the suit so he should be getting close...
ok that was fucking talent full
dig the BoC shirt on the dood in the back
Reminds me of my grandma. Fucking love this.
God bless kid koala 🐨 peace forever
Koala is such a great turntablist. his stutter effect always fascinated me when i hear it on record. and hearing this is infinitely touching, as this was one of the last tunes my late cousin took the ride to at the place of rest, with a photo of beautiful photo of audrey hepburn by her coffin. a great tribute koala. thanks.
& no headphones? boss life
That instrumental part
in the middle made me cry
I'm kinda confused how he manages to do it without headphones. How does he know that the stylus is on the correct groove?
I assume he just eyes it using the tape on the record as a reference point, but tbh I know nothing about DJing.
Practice and experience I guess.He did so many things that I thought it would be a waste of time to listen previously with headphones.
Wow! Glad to see so many wonderful comments on this video... though fleetingly wonder about the couple of dislikes... what is not there to like about "the bear" as one of the fest compadres jokingly refers to the maestro as...
Melon sent me
Send this to space man 🤯
Still coming back to this after 12 years. Still a masterpiece.
Saw him when you high dopesmooker
FIRST! I can't believe this took place just 6 days ago! Kid Koala is the reason I am diving in to turntablism.
Долой Штолле!
solid!!!
Around 2:50 and 3:30 where he’s just moving the needle is awesome
This is pure genius! I love this every time I watch this video!
Still gives me chills
Wowww
so dope...i listen to this at least 2x year for at least 5years now.....
I got chills. That sound 3:53 how it fades. eehhuurrohhhhh its like outer space. So dope
Eeehuuurooooohhh 😀
look at 3:45, the fascination and the joy in the man's face in the yellow shirt, how respectful and emotionally touched everybody is, this is truly a unique unique masterpiece. So beautiful to look at ..
You're a f'n star. Don't let anybody tell you different.
Everything sounds like crap to someone, thats natural. To not be able to appreciate the skill involved reflects more on the listener than the musician.
Sooo Great on of the best DJ s in knowing Universe ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
tom green in the back
The most pure turntablism.... gets me everytime
fantastic!
This is great! And for the obsessed fan, better quality audio version at ua-cam.com/video/T2NMwRHO3oc/v-deo.html
