Personnel includes: Kid 606; Mike Patton (vocals, keyboards); Brad Laner (guitar); Kevin Martin (saxophone); Dave Locust (drums); Cex (samples). Recorded between 1998 and 2000. Everything about the Kid conspires to brand him America's resident breakbeat brat. Miguel Depedro is young, talented, and impishly ironic. He has the goods, friends in high places, and a lot of hype to live up to. The deck is loaded. You can't dismiss Kid606, but just how seriously should you take him? DOWN WITH THE SCENE, a set of new material and Kid606 classics, states the case for maximum respect. "GQ on the EQ," "Buffalo606," "My Kitten," and "Luke Viberta" are among the Kid's grooviest mishmashes of weird-beard glitchtronica, scrappy breaks, and lo-fi hip-hop. In his sloppier moments, Kid606 mirrors the Berlin/London Digital Hardcore mindset, delivering punk tantrums of brain-clouding breakbeat and wanton FX damage ("Juvenile Hall Rollcall," "Kidrush," the almost-tuneful "My Kitty"). Collaborations continue to bring out the best in Kid606. He electro-fies Kevin Martin's (Techno Animal) sax squawks, bringing "Ruin Ita" to spastic life, and provides vocalist Mike Patton (Faith No More) with a cyber-R&B minefield--distant shades of Prince and "O Superman"--on the brilliant "Secrets 4 Sale." On "Dame Nature," Kid606 and guitarist Brad Laner (Medicine, Electric Company) wink at hardcore trance (Depedro formerly produced "indie gabber" tracks as Ariel).
