Title:  Div/Orge Series #4 Artist:  Kid606, Kid Commando Various Artists Label:  Ache Format:  7" Price:  € 5.80   Mp3 samples: none

Title Description:
When a human arrives to a foreign land, often the natural fauna are extremely tame, sort of a Mars Attacks syndrome in which they have not evolved a healthy fear of the invader. Classic evidence is the Dodo bird. When another, more advanced culture arrives the results can be devastating, as in the case of Pizzaro and the Inca. But this is Kid versus Kid. Neither have distinct advantage; rather both endear a set of cultural traits so diverse that both are mutually destroyed.
Anthropologists have managed to recreate the death knell of the Kid Commando culture . Crashing cymbals, droning repetitive guitar, distorted vocals representative of a northern climate. Hailing from the icy waters of Sweden, the Viking influence is apparent, as is the sophistication of European aesthetics. The grind and clang of one thousand years of technological advancements storming across the Pacific in a Viking warship; the slave master pounding frantically on his drum.
Kid606 of course has a much more soulful Island sound. None of this cold Scandinavian business. This is due to the hot Equatorial climate and a more sedentary, subsistence lifestyle. The result is a warm laidback sound indicative of the ritualistic nature of less advanced cultures. But, after the arrival of the Europeans, the Kid606 culture flourished and began producing some of the most sophisticated minimal dancehall techno there is.
