Listening because I miss my Mom. She died at age 81, from Covid, at 2:02 pm on Jan 21, 2021. Moms are magical. Spend as much time as possible with her.

Okay. He's using old records to manipulate and create new sounds which are reminiscent of genres such as post-rock with the crescendos and is making an ultimately unique and interesting song while still staying original to a song nearly everyone is familiar with, which, believe you me, is not easy. Plus the fact that this is entirely mixed live with incredible attention to detail and precise scratches that don't take away from the rhythm whatsoever takes serious talent. And it sounds good.

True art form of turntablism. No laptops (serrato) or any beat machines used for sampling. Just three turntables and a mixer. Real skill and on-the-spot mixing that not too many dj's these days do and that's why it is a classic

Seriously underrated. Kind of sad he isn’t mentioned in more “Best DJ’s” discussions.

this is one the greatest moments in modern music history

This is hands down the most beautiful and touching performance I have ever seen or heard on vinyl.

Such a cool, happy guy. Every shot of him performing is a shot of him smiling, having a good time, playing for his audience enthusiastically. Such an artist. Koala puts the able in turntable.

I just found kid koala 4 levels down from seatching for someone else, from Ingenuity fest in Cleveland Ohio yesterday. So blessed and grateful! At 70, a Mom and G-Ma, this is one of my favorite songs. I had no idea who he is nor what he does. I was literally blown away and my heart broke open and my eyes leaked. And then, his parting verbiage, " take care of each other" put me over the top! 💜🎶 🌟 Angels all around and Miracles Never Cease! 🙏

I don't know how many times ive come back to this video over the last few years, this is one of my favorite moments on KZfaq, Thanks for capturing it Ankur!

I actually cried seeing his live

There's DJs and there's artists, this guy is an artist, love the song.

most tasteful DJ on the planet. respect!

how do you play a record like it’s an instrument? kid koala never ceases to amaze me. listening to his records always leaves me wondering how he’s doing what he does, but seeing it live only leaves me wondering even more, truly unmatched

The guy's face holding the camera in the background says it all.

that just brought tears to me eyes

This had me absolutely mesmerized... amazing.

who else you know who can remix a slow song like this? this guy is a God on the turn table

Just saw this live last night. Incredible... Can't stop listening now

Best video ever on KZfaq. I cried.

It's still the most amazing DJ this world has ever graced us. Happy Mothers Day 2024.

There are times in your life when you have to stand in awe and just enjoy the moment for what it is. This is one of them.

To this day one of the greatest routines of all time. I feel so fortunate to have seen him perform this live (2013 in toronto) and to say it had an impact on the crowd is an understatement - legit a whole group of grown folk in tears. Salute Kid Koala

Absolute skills, such a creative spin on a classic. Thx for the upload

Brings a tear, easily one of the greatest out there.

He took that to a new level@that tone play solo?my head blew up!!BOOM!WOW!

Seriously tho. Best song. I keep coming back to this. Koala, you rock! I wanna hear you do more super bittersweet mixes of oldies ... I would give my left nostril.

Jacob Collier can't be compared to this version. Koala's version is his own thing & still moves me in ways after almost a decade. One can go into a loop for days by listening to both of these improvisations back to back. In the end, it's a win for Team Music 🏆

10年前にこの動画を見つけてから何度も見てるんだけど、初めて観た時の感動は何度見ても色褪せないんだよな。最高だぜキッドコアラ！！ありがとうキッドコアラ！

So dope, saw him perform this live earlier this month. Was absolutely blown away.

Just saw him perform this at Dirtybird Campout. Made me shed a tear, so beautiful

Koala is such a great turntablist. his stutter effect always fascinated me when i hear it on record. and hearing this is infinitely touching, as this was one of the last tunes my late cousin took the ride to at the place of rest, with a photo of beautiful photo of audrey hepburn by her coffin. a great tribute koala. thanks.

Still coming back to this after 12 years. Still a masterpiece.

so dope...i listen to this at least 2x year for at least 5years now.....

it sounds like when loneliness sing to the outerspace and I cried (sorry for my poor english I'm a fucking foreigner but try my best to connect to the world, to believe there is love and peace inside the human beings)

Cant help but shed some tears every time I see this preformed..... so beautiful...

Pure Love

i personally believe turntablist 'music' needs to be seen. listening their songs/albums is great and all, but when you see what they're actually doing, even if you don't fully comprehend it, it's like a hundred times better.

Such a lovely tune. Thanks.

I don't know- the kid loves what he does, and loves his mother. He's adding a new sound to a classic song to show it to a different generation of people. I don't get how that's so hard to understand. I love my mother.

One of the best routine I’ve ever seen✨✨✨✨

So beautiful it makes me cry

So so beautiful!

This is pure genius! I love this every time I watch this video!

Saw him perform Moon River in London in 2005...never thought I'd be listening to that at a gig! Unforgettable!

Just saw this live in Victoria, astounding!

look at 3:45, the fascination and the joy in the man's face in the yellow shirt, how respectful and emotionally touched everybody is, this is truly a unique unique masterpiece. So beautiful to look at ..

Beautiful

When I saw him live, he elaborated that his mom always urged him to be a surgeon because of how steady his hands were. However, in the end she wanted him to be happy and supported him.

This is amazing. He has got so much talent.

God bless kid koala 🐨 peace forever

I love it so much

that is the most beautiful thing i've ever seen

i'm melting!

Seriously, thank you for capturing this.

Sooo Great on of the best DJ s in knowing Universe ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

One of the most musical turntable performances ever.
