Kid Koala Releases a DIY Cardboard Turntable Kit

Kid Koala, is a Canadian DJ, turntablist, musician and an author of graphic novels. Kid Koala didn’t just release an album this week, he introduced a whole new piece of technology. Technology that sort-of takes us back and also helps set his music in motion – a real working cardboard gramophone kit and flexi disc! This cardboard turntable and disc for mobile scratching is included with the first run of CD and 2LP of Kid Koala’s ’12 bit BLUES’ album.


Direction and Animation by Dale Hayward
Stop motion software: Dragon Frame

It works just like a real turntable as you can see in the video below, where you have your how-to put it together and use it guide.

Because it’s all about the music – here is a minimix by DK of Kid Koala’s ’12 Bit Blues’ album
