The Slew nennt sich das neueste Projekt vom kanadischen Turntable-Musiker Kid Koala. Deren erstes Album ist frei zum Download verfügbar, denn: Music is meant to be heard…

Auschnitt aus einem Interview mit Wired:

“We studied how many of our favorite rock records were produced, and adapted those studio techniques to the turntables,” he said. “I would play an E chord on a Hammond organ through a Leslie speaker to get that overdriven blues-rock tone, then we would cut that tone to record. Once it was on vinyl, I was able to bend it into any other key live, which gave it the twisted turntable sound which we liked. We would also plug turntables into amps and mike them, so everything was double-distorted, and use a lot of tape echos, spring reverbs and oil-can delays from that era. I think it helped to give it that dust.”
