Mixed Bizness/Kid Koala, The Arches, Glasgow, May 6

Kid Koala capitalises on the success of his Your Mom's Favourite DJ album by bringing his decks, fx and funnybone to The Arches for a one off show with Boom Monk Ben (Mixed Bizness) and human beatbox, Monkey Moo. With album titles and imagery culled from the Encyclopedia of Esoteric Wackiness that seems to be Ninja Tune's bible, The Kid's psychedelic, bong-friendly sets are as much about the joyous comedy as they are about grooving along. A deck-wrecking turntablist of the highest order, The Kid shouldn't be missed. Hell, this guy could spin 20 minutes of my Gran reading the agricultural section of the Cumberland and Westmorland Herald, and still make The Bug look like an amateur. Previous shows have seen him drop everything from Wagon Christ, to Monty Python's Holy Grail theme tune, to his own classic Fender Bender, said to be the secret to success at Pacman. He's even managed to make crowds move with a crushingly gnarly version of Genesis' Land of Confusion! Get down there and get moving. Up, down, left, right and watch out for that Ghost. [Liam Arnold]
