KID KOALA Music to Draw To CAP UCLA Presents KID KOALA Music To Draw To SAT, DEC 5, 2020 AT 3 PM PST LIVESTREAMED FROM MONTREAL ART MATTERS NOW MORE THAN EVER WELCOME TO UCLA’S CENTER FOR THE ART OF PERFORMANCE UCLA’s Center for the Art of Performance (CAP UCLA) is the public facing research and presenting organization for the performing arts at the University of California, Los Angeles—one of the world’s leading public research universities. We are housed within the UCLA School of the Arts & Architecture along with the Hammer and Fowler museums. The central pursuit of our work as an organization is to sustain the diversity of contemporary performing artists while celebrating their contributions to culture. We acknowledge, amplify and support artists through major presentations, commissions and creative development initiatives. Our programs offer audiences a direct connection to the ideas, perspectives and concerns of living artists. Through the lens of dance, theater, music, literary arts, digital media arts and collaborative disciplines, informed by diverse racial and cultural backgrounds, artists and audiences come together in our theaters and public spaces to explore new ways of seeing that expands our understanding of the world we live in now. cap.ucla.edu #CAPUCLA CAP UCLA Presents KID KOALA MUSIC TO DRAW TO Sat, Dec 5 at 3PM PST Livestreamed from Montreal Approximate run time: 60 minutes, no intermission CREDITS: Eric San - Musician / Composer, Corinne Merrell - Visuals and Live Editor and Produced by Envision Management and Production MESSAGE FROM THE ARTIST Normally, we would host these Music To Draw To events somewhere cozy with everyone in the same room. It started in the winter of 2009 in Montreal at Théâtre Ste. Catherine. Each Monday, I would play a set of quiet time focus music and people were invited to come draw, write, code and study. We strung lights and set up seats and little drawing tables for everyone. The point was to create a cozy atmosphere for people to work on their own creative projects. Over the years, I started to improvise and create some original ambient pieces live. Several of which would become the skeletal tracks for the Music To Draw To album series which would start almost a decade later. Since 2009, we have been lucky enough to bring this event to several cities around the world. We also continue hosting them in Montreal every winter. It remains one of my favorite events to host. I’m constantly inspired by the range of projects that people work on at these sessions. Over the years, there have been many writers, painters, animators, sculptors and video game coders at the events. But there have also been filmmakers finishing screenplays, teachers finishing lesson plans and even designers bringing in looms and dress forms for their clothing/textile projects. I remember this one attendee was working on a laptop on what I thought was some wild 3D animation. I asked her if it was for a video game or music video but it turned out she was a neuroscientist studying CT scans. I love that! Everybody’s welcome! Bring your creative projects. Come join us if you need a little focus music or to get some (quiet) work done. Eric, AKA Kid Koala ABOUT THE ARTIST More than just a DJ, Kid Koala has established himself as a respected performer, film composer, theatre producer and visual artist. His career began as a scratch DJ in 1994, rapidly growing a cult fan base due to his virtuosic skills. Ever innovating, he quickly evolved into combining turntables with analog machines and visual storytelling devices to create his signature style. Kid Koala jumps effortlessly between genres as eclectic as hip hop, ambient, alternative, contemporary classical, blues, classic rock and traditional jazz. He has released 5 solo albums on Ninja Tune, and 3 albums on Arts & Crafts Records. He has also toured with Radiohead, Arcade Fire, the Beastie Boys, Money Mark, A Tribe Called Quest, Mike Patton, Jack Johnson, DJ Shadow and The Preservation Hall Jazz Band. He has collaborated with Deltron 3030, Gorillaz, Lovage, The Slew and the Afiara String Quartet. He has written and produced collaborative albums with vocalists Emilìana Torrini and Trixie Whitley and scored the multi platform video game Floor Kids. Kid Koala’s unforgettable live shows range from touring turntable carnivals like Vinyl Vaudeville, to immersive multimedia shows like Nufonia Must Fall, The Storyville Mosquito, Satellite Turntable Orchestra and his Space Cadet Headphone Concert; each of which express his unique form of storytelling with music, animation, film and interactive entertainment. He has contributed to scores for the films The Great Gatsby, Baby Driver, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Men Women and Children, Shaun of the Dead and Looper. He has composed music for The National Film Board of Canada, the Cartoon Network, Sesame Street and Adult Swim. He has also been commissioned to create music for runway shows for Belgian fashion designer Dries Van Noten. He has published the award-winning graphic novels Nufonia Must Fall and Space Cadet.

  • Kid Koala Featuring Emilíana Torrini Music to Draw To: Satellite Album Biography
    Kid Koala featuring Emilíana Torrini Music To Draw To: Satellite Album Biography Kid Koala’s Music To Draw To: Satellite is an uncharted musical journey for the legendary scratch DJ, producer, and composer. Eric San ’s fifth studio album is an expansive work of ambient electronic soundscapes and chilling dream-pop ballads sung by Icelandic artist Emilíana Torrini. Satellite is the renowned audio-collagist’s first non-sample-based record, with Kid Koala composing, performing, and producing with an array of synthesizers, keys, guitars, strings, turntables, noisemakers, and inventive recording techniques. This inaugural volume in the Music To Draw To collaboration series also finds Kid Koala contributing poetic lyrics to five of Emilíana Torrini’s seven vocal contributions. Created during the gelid Montreal winter, the eighteen movements of Music To Draw To: Satellite tell a tale of discovery and loss through the lens of lovers separated by an early Mars mission. Album opener “The Observable Universe” swells in a cycle of orchestral electronic ambience, a glacial and patient overture to Satellite’s 72-minute sonic expedition. On “Collapser,” San’s heartrending poetry is sung in Torrini’s spectral, icy style, repeating the song’s sombre mantra over a pulsating sequence of keyboards, analog synthesizers, samplers, and controllers: No plan, no map, at this rate, we’ll all collapse. About working with the vocalist, San says: “Emilíana is one of my favourite singers in the world. I’ve been following her work since her first album. She’s just got one of those singular voices that captivated me years ago. Even when she is singing at whisper quiet levels, it’s enough to crack your heart open.“ Following their meeting at one of Emilíana’s shows at Joe’s Pub in New York, the pair bonded over a mutual appreciation of one another’s work.

Each character lives in a separate world but authors a story about the life of another. The comic book artist, Emma, works by day at an artificial love doll factory, and is hoping to undergo a secret cosmetic procedure. Emma’s comic tells the story of Edward, a cocky film director with a debilitating secret about his anatomy. The director, Edward, creates a film that features Michelle, an aspiring novelist who escapes to Brazil and abandons her former life as a model. Michelle, pens a novel that tells the tale of Emma, who works at an artificial love doll factory… And so it goes..

Emma Baloka - Letís Love Each Other With this release, Comb & Razor Sound launches its exploration of the colorful world of popular music from Nigeria, starting with the post-disco era of the late 1970s and early 80s. The years between 1979 and 1983 were Nigeria’s Second Republic, when democracy finally returned after twenty-three years of uninterrupted military dictatorship. They were also the crest of Nigeria’s oil boom, when surging oil prices made the petroleum-producing country a land of plenty, prosperity and profligacy. The influx of petrodollars meant an expansion in industry and the music industry in particu- lar. Record companies upgraded their technology and cranked out a staggering volume of output to an audience hungry for music to celebrate the country’s prospective rise as global power of the future. While it was a boom time for a wide variety of popular music styles, the predominant commercial sound was a post-afrobeat, slickly modern dance groove that retrofitted the relentless four-on-the- floor bass beat of disco to a more laidback, upbeat-and-downbeat soul shuffle, mixing in jazz-funk, synthesizer pop and afro feeling.

Included is an examination of literature and creative work focused on the Golden Age of Hip-Hop that explores early sampling processes and techniques. Through original compositions and an exegesis, the study provides unique and significant contributions to the field including the identification of four approaches to the design and construction of sample-based composition and associated techniques for achieving them using contemporary music technologies. The Golden Age of Hip-Hop is presented as a historical period of musical significance, not only for defining new genres and sub genres of music, but because of the influencing factors that emerging technologies had on new compositional processes and outcomes.
