His first record, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, sounds like a dance club on Sesame Street. Kid Koala is a rare thing: a DJ who just wants to make you smile. With Adira.

Monday night's Kid Koala show was on the other end of the "change" spectrum from last weekend's Jamie Lidell show. While the Lidell show was about how things stay the same (although a good same), the Kid Koala show was all about change (or at least doing things differently). While most people were in attendance for Kid Koala's playful DJing, Seattlest was most intrigued to see openers Fog, who have made a huge departure from their original sound.
