Kid Koala is one of the giants in turntablism and is one of the most skilled DJs around.

Next week, he’s bringing his ambitious project The Slew to Nectar for a show next Thursday, September 24 that should be one of the best parties of the week. The idea behind The Slew is that Koala is spinning records from six turntables while being backed by the former rhythm section from the rock band Wolfmother. Even if with it being on a work night, I’m intrigued to check it out. I’ve enjoyed what I’ve heard from the album The Slew: 100%, which you can download from Kid Koala’s website.

Even better, we have a pair of tickets to give away to a lucky reader. To enter, you just need to be over 21 and send an e-mail with “TheSlew” in the subject line to tig@threeimaginarygirls.com before Monday morning (Sept. 21) at 9am. The winner will be notified shortly after that.
