Kid Kenobi

Bio:

Countless accolades, awards, records, and firsts have been the hallmark of Kid Kenobi’s illustrious 13-year DJing career. Indeed it’s an impossible task trying to resist running them off. From being named Australia’s favourite DJ for a record number 3 years from 2003 – 2005, receiving an award for his first remix ever (of Green Velvet’s “La La Land’ ), to an ARIA nomination for ‘The Bump’ with Hook N Sling, knocking up over 20 remixes for some of the world’s biggest names in dance, pop and rock, being the first DJ ever to have a CD series named after him by Ministry of Sound, to having an itinerary that reads like a Lonely Planet guidebook to the best nightclubs around the world, Kid Kenobi has just about done it all. It’s almost become a cliché to say that there isn’t much left for him to do. And yet perhaps the Kids greatest triumph of all is his ability to keep on evolving and growing as an artist. Music trends come and go, clubbers retire, scenes change, and awards gather dust but Kid Kenobi, it seems, is here to stay. It’s little wonder then that 2009 is shaping up to be Kid Kenobi's biggest year yet. Fed up and disillusioned with the direction of dance music in 2007, Kid Kenobi realised his only salvation would come from taking responsibility for his own artistic journey and creating for himself the music he needed to hear. It was a great time of transition. Friends and family were replaced with solitude in the studio, partying was replaced with the gym and early morning starts in the studio, disappointment was replaced with inspiration, and a new chapter in the Kids career was born. Out of this transition was born Two Fresh – a new collaboration with his brother Hugga Thugg (together they have already remixed the likes of P-Money, Soda Boys, and Tone Loc), out of this was born Kosmic Kids – a new outlet for the Kid’s love of deeper sounds - out of this was born his first independent compilation ‘Klub Kids 01’, and out of this was born Klub Kids itself, Kid Kenobi’s own record label and new home to all the music he has and is yet to write. It’s perhaps another cliché to say the future looks ‘bright’, but there seems no other word to describe that, which lays ahead for the Kid. Having achieved so much already, one seems a fool to expect anything less from the next phase of his artistic journey.
