Killa Kela, Reading Rooms, Dundee, 22 Sept

Killa Kela, the legendary beatboxer from West Sussex, is coming to Dundee's Reading Rooms on 22nd September. His unique sound incorporates a mix of drum and bass, hip-hop, scratching and MC-ing, and having been praised as one of the best beatboxers in the world, Killa Kela's show promises to be a superb, one-off experience. Previous live gigs have seen the audience stand back in awe of Kela's vocal skills. On stage he puts on a fantastic show, making heavy use of hand gestures to imitate hitting the drums, scratching and changing the pitch, and vibrating the microphone to echo his vocal percussion. Kela even has the ability to sing at the same time (much like celebrated US beatboxer Rahzel) resulting in a "one-man orchestra." Joining him on the night will be Spider and DJ Skeletrik (Spit Kingdom) and Jon Keneddy (Tru Thoughts, Grand Central). [Karen Taggart]
