Kaleidoscope

A 12 track house album (47m 44s) — released November 21st 2011 on Poor Records

From the beginning, Kid Chocolat know his taste for films. After a first ep dedicated to Peter Sellers, the musician composed a tribute to the Italian horror master, Dario Argento. His first album released in 2002 is called "Life And Death Romano Poal" and tells the story of an imaginary musician and producer through music history. Recently, he tried to make the zombies dance in a funky ballroom with his album "Zombiparti!".

He released in 2008, in collaboration with video artist Pascal Greco, a double feature project including a DVD and an original soundtrack called "Super8°". If Kid Chocolat loves movies and quotes from the soundtracks by John Barry, Ennio Morricone and Henry Mancini and samples dialogues, he also directed a tribute compilation to the beginnings of Stephan Eicher and Grauzone and regularly collaborates with Asia Argento, daughter of you know who and french comic writer, Luz. It has musical preferences known to the psychedelia, the absurd, black and suspens.

Kaleidoscope is Kid Chocolat's third personal album. It revisits Northern Soul and psychedelic pop from the 60s. Kid Chocolat affixes to its references a pop electronic filter and replaces the use of the sample by real instruments. He works with many vocal collaborations throughout the album such as Tahiti 80, Land Of Bingo, Love Motel, Puma Mimi, Luz...
