A collection of psychedelic love songs paying tribute to all things analog! Similar to older Kid606 releases like PS I Love You, GQ on the EQ, The Soccergirl EP, and Why I Love Life, this album was carefully constructed to be the soundtrack for the peak 72 minutes of your next trip. The songs all linger on just long enough. You hear voices you can t understand, but you will know what they are saying. Every track has its distinct identity and direction, to completely throw you from one headspace to another. All the songs on this album were created with analog source material. None have beats or percussion to weigh you down, and they are all love songs. Composed over the years in many different places, each song represents a phase of indulgent musical composition that only deserved to have its best parts represented on this album. After compiling and editing all the songs on a computer, they were mixed down and mastered through analog equipment to two-track analog tape.
2009 release, Kid606's most accomplished record to date, Shout At The D"ner combines all his usual brash and exciting plunderphonic and sampledelic elements with a whole new world of uncharacteristically musical and danceable hooks and styles both fresh and timeless. 17 tracks.
Aka vol.2, More shiz that didn't fit onto the 'Kill Sound Before Sound Kills You' album. Ingredients: two booming thematically linked neo-rave breakbeat tracks, one live acidhouse basement party jam, two rinsing ragga jungle slammers, four booty bass bouncers/two with vocals from sue cie of gold chains fame, one crunked up dj screw tribute, one unfinished cex remix, one sweet emo monosynth song kid did when he was 17 and in lots of pain after coming home from the orthodontist, one really good different version of a remix kid did for com.a, and 2 gabber blowouts kid made to finish live shows with to try and crush the soundsystem while still retaining a element of danceable fun musical enjoyment (you can decide how it all came out). Add all new artwork from joel trussell, the man responsible for the 3Illness2 video and the illustrations from ksb4sku and you've got the freshest kid606 joint in your hands! Valve. 2005.

Album Summary
Give credit to the Kid for this one -- when the original vinyl release turned up on CD, it became a full-on rarities collection, pulling together unreleased tracks and a variety of scattered one-off efforts as bonus cuts. The result is a nice overview of his work between 1997 and 1999, with his brand of extreme loop/sample treatments and glitch rhythms on regular display. The original EP tracks are enjoyable enough as they are; there are enough individual touches -- the wordless vocals on "My Kitten Went to London," the calmer distorted string/drone rumble of "Dandy," the almost shoegaze/blissout wash of "Take It from Me" -- to make it a worthy listen on its own. Beyond that, the other random tracks are an all-over-the-place delight, starting with the nicely titled "...Just Another Kool Kat Out Looking for a Kitty," which hits all the buttons from dank breakbeat noise to piano ambience and soft wordless vocal croons, usually all at once. In contrast to the often noisy way Kid606 has made his mark, "Nobody Wants to Be a Star Anymore (Toss It)" takes a completely low-key approach, with a quieter volume compared to everything else on the disc and a soft, sweet melody gently floating above a persistent but still pretty calm rhythm. "When I Want a Gun, Yeah" fits into that vein as well, but with more open clattering and sudden spikes in the volume to throw things even more off-kilter. Of three tracks from a split tour single with Lesser, "Relive Yr Unhappy Childhood" is the best, a dreamier but melancholy piece that's short but makes its effective point. ~ Ned Raggett, All Music Guide
