Post-hip-hop abstract turntableism. This kid has mad crazy turntable skills, and he uses a mixture of scratches, samples, and music to create sound collage. Each song is constructed around a theme. Often quite witty, Kid Koala uses a wide range of amusing samples to illustrate the point. This is really wild, man. Check out tracks 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, and 13

6 (1:58) *Nice music, pickup line samples, amusing
7 (3:47) **Man beatboxing mixed w/ dialog about getting up plus a beat
