Review

Spin (9/00, p.193) - 7 out of 10 - "...The Kid rocks like a woodchipper....an exciting antidote to the ascetic tweakery of the headphone set and the self-important politics of digital hardcore..."
Q (5/01, pp.112-4) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...What music in the an information-overloaded culture is meant to sound like..."
The Wire (1/01, p.34) - Included in Wire's "50 Records Of The Year".
The Wire (8/00, p.48) - "...A Tourette's syndrome psychosis that responds to the obsessive accumulation of information by screaming OVERLOAD!....a collage of epic proportions...that makes cryptic sense of this info-trauma....its absurdity is hilarious..."
NME (Magazine) (7/15/00, p.33) - 8 out of 10 - "...The stuff of rancid, virus-riddled programming....[He] is the 'enfant terrible' of laptop geek-chic techno-terrorism....Sick, twisted and very, very wrong, few records this year can be more heartily recommended."

Title Note

Personnel includes: Kid 606; Mike Patton (vocals, keyboards); Brad Laner (guitar); Kevin Martin (saxophone); Dave Locust (drums); Cex (samples).

Recorded between 1998 and 2000.

Everything about the Kid conspires to brand him America's resident breakbeat brat. Miguel Depedro is young, talented, and impishly ironic. He has the goods, friends in high places, and a lot of hype to live up to. The deck is loaded. You can't dismiss Kid606, but just how seriously should you take him? DOWN WITH THE SCENE, a set of new material and Kid606 classics, states the case for maximum respect. "GQ on the EQ," "Buffalo606," "My Kitten," and "Luke Vibert…" are among the Kid's grooviest mishmashes of weird-beard glitchtronica, scrappy breaks, and lo-fi hip-hop.

In his sloppier moments, Kid606 mirrors the Berlin/London Digital Hardcore mindset, delivering punk tantrums of brain-clouding breakbeat and wanton FX damage ("Juvenile Hall Rollcall," "Kidrush," the almost-tuneful "My Kitty"). Collaborations continue to bring out the best in Kid606. He electro-fies Kevin Martin's (Techno Animal) sax squawks, bringing "Ruin It…" to spastic life, and provides vocalist Mike Patton (Faith No More) with a cyber-R&B minefield--distant shades of Prince and "O Superman"--on the brilliant "Secrets 4 Sale." On "Dame Nature," Kid606 and guitarist Brad Laner (Medicine, Electric Company) wink at hardcore trance (Depedro formerly produced "indie gabber" tracks as Ariel).
