KID 606
 

Martel from U.K on 2001-04-25 13:49 [#00004573]



Does anybody know with Richard is producing work under the
name of Kid 606, on teh new Depeche Mode single Dream on,
there is a remix by Kid 606, this has got to be the twin,
sounds just like him, if it's not it's somebody who whould
like to be or is influenced by Richard


 

derrikkk from train on 2001-04-25 14:23 [#00004576]



Nah, Kid606 is an artist in his own right, owns tigerbeat
records, and is from the usa, his favorite colour is green.


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-25 14:55 [#00004581]



I was reading about Kid 606 in STUFF magazine.. [you know
they do MAXIM also]..anyway he was like number 7 or
something on their 100 most dangerous people of the year!
They said he was the "johnny rotten" of techno. So i dunno
what this means, Ive personally never heard him. Well im
outta here to go to school. :[


 

Martel from U.K on 2001-04-25 16:11 [#00004591]



Thank's for the info,


 

crapnose from Montreal on 2001-04-27 21:03 [#00004892]



Kid606 is the reincarnation of punk.


 

Netlon Sentinel from beyond on 2001-04-27 21:08 [#00004895]



doesn;t sound like aphex twin to me.


 

5is6 from centeroftheultraworld on 2001-04-27 23:11 [#00004904]



If Kid 606 is the Aphex Twin then he just lost a fan. Kid
White Trash is alright but hes no fucking Twin man. The
last alias the Twin has used is RDevine.


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-27 23:25 [#00004906]



who the fuck said he was aphex twIn? whoever brought that up
needs a smack!. ive seen his pics, heard his tunes and read
shit abuot him.. i don;t like his stuff...... its SHITE.


 

5is6 from centeroftheultraworld on 2001-04-27 23:34 [#00004910]



haha, thats funny REFLEX. Although I dont know if I have
such harsh words for Kid 606 unless of course you put him
and Richie up in the same catergory. Then its tapeworms and
stool for sure!


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-27 23:37 [#00004912]



5is6: nice to know someone agrees.. hehehe. I mean come
one... anyone can be a DJ! but to call im "the wonder kid of
techno" and that "he has brought techno to new heights" is
total SHITE... total, utter SHITE!


 

Ross from scatterheart0@mailcity.com on 2001-04-28 00:06 [#00004922]



i think kid 606s shite as well, all that ive heard by him
has been terrible


 

5is6 from centeroftheultraworld on 2001-04-28 00:23 [#00004927]



Plus he tried to rag on Luke Vibert. Had a track called :
'Luke Vibert is a white trash indie punk kid' or something
comprable to that.


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-28 02:06 [#00004940]



Kid 606 is total SHITE! fuck him! fuck him till he dies!
Fucker! Luke Vibert is the shit!. damn bitch!.... [kid 606]
hes the white trash piece of fucking shit!


 

ilikechainsaws from 8 to 9 on 2001-04-28 18:43 [#00004984]



i saw pictures of him.......
he looks like some kind of sunnyboyoyoyoyoyoy
...........
when you put sonnyboys and elecrtoclickcliackmusic
together
you get shittyshitshit music


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-28 19:24 [#00004986]



yes... well i tend to believe that as well. he looks like a
Æ’ucking idiot.


 

Ross from scatterheart0@mailcity.com on 2001-04-28 20:56 [#00004987]



i read this review on amazon, where someone said they used
to listen to aphex while making music and now they got rid
of their aphex cds and listened to kid 606s (or something
along those lines) is he trying to convert people?


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-28 22:01 [#00004988]



Ross: I don't know, but Ive heard a bit of his stuff, and
its boring shit. Whoever "converted" over, is a Æ’ucking
lamer [loser].


 

Ross from scatterheart0@mailcity.com on 2001-04-28 22:25 [#00004991]



yeah, no kidding


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-28 23:16 [#00004997]



yup, well this pretty much sums up this Thread... KID 606 is
over!@. fuck him.


 

Richard from Portsmouth on 2001-04-28 23:48 [#00004998]



Kid606 is ok. Try listening to his soccer girl ep.
He might not be the next Aphex but he is qwite cool.


 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-29 00:02 [#00005001]



I think ive heard some SHITE off of that..... Its not cool
in my books.. [in my opinion].. i don't care if someone
likes him.... whatever. I just think hes a Æ’ucking Ass


 

PostModernVancouver from Vancouver on 2001-04-29 00:38 [#00005003]



erm KID 606 is a waste of time in my opinion.
Erm,there hasnt been a wonder kid in all of electronic music
since Aphex Twin, everyone else are mere disciples of him.
Aphex still is the master of the whole dance/electronic
scene.
I think its funny, but a lot of people dont even know that
Aphex is regarded as the most advanced and talented artist
in the whole dance/dj/electronic culture.
Hes still leaps ahead of everyone!

Heres part of a review of some big festival in Israel a few
months ago.
Both Kid 606 and Aphex DJ's there:

An appearance by Aphex Twin at midnight ensures the tent is
customarily heaving on the final night. Before him, People
Like Us' Vicki Bennet weaves an alluring spell using field
recordings, folk records and synthetic drones. Next,
jetlagged San Francisco PowerBook jockey Kid 606, face
bathed in the screen's luminosity, spends an hour
reprocessing and dissecting vintage hip-hop, splicing glitch
after click into tracks by Detroit Grand Pubahs and NWA.

As thrilling as the Kid's set is, it sounds PREHISTORIC
compared to the music loaded onto Richard James' hard-drive.
Aphex may have the same records as everyone else - old skool
hip-hop, early jungle, deviant rave - but the ways in which
he plays them, his ability to forge new from old, never
ceases to amaze. Pity poor Expander, Lisbon's hottest techno
DJ, who follows him with a commendable effort. But by now
the tent is deserted. And the rain pours down once more.



 

[REFLEX] from Canada on 2001-04-29 01:15 [#00005007]



postmodernVAN: that was nice!.. hahahaha.. cool shit


 

Gerry Atrick on 2001-04-29 07:30 [#00005028]



IF there is a wonderkid ov techno, i would say that its
Ovuca....That kid is putting out as much as Rich use too,
And most of it is just as good as The Twins. Plus, his
remix on the migros album is really really good, if i sent
an mp3 of it and said it was aphex, you'd probably be
inclinded to believe me. I guess thats why rich signed him
to a contract.

Kid 606 mostly sucks, i kind of like the gq on the eq album,
but its more of a drone with melodies. Perhaps it is
because he uses the same program on every track whichs makes
it all sound alike.

oh yeah, that song was "luke vibert can kiss my indie punk
white boy ass"



 

PostModernVancouver from Vancouver on 2001-04-29 13:01 [#00005045]



Ovuca is good, but since some of it sounds like RDJ or is
inspired by him doesnt make him a so called Wonderkid by
any matter of means.
A true visionary and pioneer in any artform comes up with
something totally unusual and new.
Ovuca doesnt have that gift , as much as I like his music.
but it aint revolutionary.
The only true contender might be Squarepusher..


 

sic from netherlands on 2001-04-29 18:34 [#00005054]



Richard Devine isn't Aphex??? or am i wrong


 

Gerry Atrick on 2001-04-29 19:03 [#00005057]



Considering that most of Ovucas stuff on lactavent was
written before 97 should show that he has a pioneer vision.
Im not gonna float his boat, but thats because he doesnt
really need it.

One other person would be Global goon, Mainly because he
shows the same talent in his music. He also knows how to
make a good percussion riff,

These are just artist who make good music and shouldn't be
compared with anybody. They didnt get into music with the
purpose of taking over anyones spot.

And in the end, no person will be satisfied with the next
wonder kid until aphex himself says "this guy will give the
world something to talk about" ie mozart about beethoven.
So we should stop all communication about this, unless you
just want to have fun and toss thoughts around without worry
of being told you are wrong.

And richard devine is not aphex. Torley wong is though...


 

tune*mx on 2001-04-29 21:05 [#00005066]



no R.Devine is not Aphex... I saw his picture and a short
article of him in the last month's Urb Mag...


 

Ross from can. on 2001-04-29 21:43 [#00005068]



erm..what do you mean torley wong is..?


 

PostModernVancouver from Vancouver,Canada on 2001-04-29 21:43 [#00005069]



Ok, I know its silly debating this, but Ovuca couldnt have
made any of the stuff unless Aphex had been there before
him.
Same with Global Goon...
Aphex came up with that Ovuca 1997 stuff way back in 1995.
Ofcourse ya can compare, because its all IDM music of which
Aphex is the spearheader followed closely by Autechre and
Black Dog/Plaid, the rest of em barring Squarepusher and
U-ziq are all followers and almost Aphex wannabes who just
want to be on that same Rephlex label with the master
himself.


 

5is6 from centeroftheultraworld on 2001-04-30 01:30 [#00005094]



One would have to admit that alot of Aphexs better moments
were due to styles being partially created by others close
to him. I think thered be no HAB1 and 2 w/out Luke Vibert
and Tom Jenkinson for instance. Richard has the ability to
mimick, mock, and master the styles that his mates dabble in
making a more perminent wave for the rest of the IDMers to
ride. After all, surfing requires more than just sinewaves.



 

Martel from U.K on 2001-04-30 11:00 [#00005147]



Sorry Guy's to have sparked such a heated debate, and for
the responsibility of making KID606'S ears burn, with all
the slagging off that has been going on. I have been a big
Aphex Twin fan since early 1996.But just because this site
is dedicated to the genius that is Richard D James, I think
we should all show a little respect for other people in the
Techno game like KID606.After all they are trying to push
the limits of Techno, but just don't have the deranged
psychotic madness that is R.D.G.Long live the TWIN and Steve
Poindexter,the original master of computer madness.



 

Netlon Sentinel from beyond on 2001-04-30 11:24 [#00005153]



hey that's right! i'd rather have people imitate/be inspired
by rdj than 2 unlimited or something.
btw, i rather liked kid 606's remix of dream on.

so there.


 

Martel from U.K on 2001-04-30 11:37 [#00005157]



By the way just before you all start posting messages saying
R.D.G dont ya mean R.D.J Well it stands for Richard
Digeridoo Guru



 

Martel from U.K on 2001-04-30 11:43 [#00005159]



Well said Netlon Sentinel, I'm glad some people feel the
same. Respect to ya good self and long may your life be a
prosperous one.



 

Netlon Sentinel from beyond on 2001-04-30 11:56 [#00005160]



hola martel!!
live long and prosper!

:)


 

ross from school on 2001-04-30 16:40 [#00005178]



i didnt mind the collaboration he did with matmos (who are
great!) on the topic of electronic geniuses, im starting to
think m.o.m. are on a high level (not as much as aphex, but
i respect them quite a bit)


 

Martel from U.K on 2001-04-30 16:48 [#00005179]



Ya you are spot on there ross, APHEX will always be regarded
as a pioneer in the field of Techno as is is one of the
leaders of Industrial strength Techno. He has inspired may
to create electronic music and to delve the darker depths of
one's mind, in the process to create electronic madness and
visual imagrey.But there are a hell of a lot of good techno
guy's and girls out there who are hot on his heel's and
deserve there own individual credit.

I woke up one morning, and I was Richard! But then I called
my cell, and Richard answered! Then I looken in the mirror,
and I was talking to myself on my cell! Then I went to sleep
for 10 hours but still awoke as Richard...

I was so disappointed cuz I had just cleaned my room, and I
awoke to find it filled with so many machines...
