| Kid Koala, is a Montreal, Quebec based DJ and turntablist.He is well known for his enigmatic style of turntablism, which uses an unusual collection of samples.He has been known to use samples of music from Charlie Brown television specials, old comedy sketch routines (including those which mock turntablism), people sneezing, and people reading a menu in Cantonese.He is well known for his cheerful demeanor at concerts and having a good sense of humour.San is also an illustrator and an artist, having designed all of his own album covers.Following this tour Kid Koala has performed DJ sets all over Asia, discovering new fans in destinations such as Iceland, Eastern Europe, Russia, and South America all the while working on a fresh new book (apparently about a mosquito trying to play a clarinet) and a unique puppet show set to take place in 2008.San popularized a method of playing the turntable like a melodic instrument, where a long, single note is dragged under the needle at different speeds, creating different pitches.San released a new Kid Koala album, entitled Your Mom's Favorite DJ (ZENCD127), on 25 September 2006."The new faces of music: Kid Koala's got all the technical moves but more important, he's making new music" The Vancouver Sun (British Columbia), March 20, 2004, Pg.External links
