Kid Koala to Release Graphic Novel Soundtrack

Jul, 12 2011

Canadian turntablist and DJ, Kid Koala, is set to release the accompanying soundtrack to his new graphic novel, Space Cadet. The soundtrack (or “still picture score” as it is being called) will be released in mid-September on UK label, Ninja Tune. He’s touring behind the releases currently now. Kid Koala summarized the book’s plot: “[Space Cadet] is the guardian robot programmed to protect the sweetest astronaut on this (or any) planet. But when she blasts off on a solo mission of outer-space adventure, he is left to wonder… What now? [It is] a tomorrow-days lullaby about finding your place in the universe.” You can watch the Headphone Concert trailer for Space Cadet by clicking here. Kid Koala will tour with the picture show and provide a live soundtrack. Check out his website by clicking here. Kid Koala has enjoyed a promising solo career and is also 1/3 of the hip-hop supergroup, Deltron 3030 together with Dan the Automator and Del Tha Funkee Homosapien. -Court
