Kid606, born Miguel Trost De Pedro in 1979, is an eclectic and innovative electronic music artist known for his genre-defying compositions and penchant for digital manipulation. Hailing from Venezuela before moving to the United States as a child, Kid606 became a part of the West Coast's burgeoning electronic music scene in the late 1990s. He gained recognition for his playful approach to music, which often includes elements of glitch, ambient, techno, IDM, and even noise. His irreverently titled releases, which combine a critical eye with an unmistakable sense of humor, reflect his outsider ethos in the electronic music community.

Throughout his career, Kid606 has consistently pushed boundaries with his releases, speaking to a wide spectrum of electronic tastes. Albums like "Recollected Ambient Works, Vol. 1: Bored of Excitement" and "Recollected Ambient Works, Vol. 2: Escape to Los Angeles" showcase his more introspective and tranquil side, delving into lush soundscapes and ethereal textures. Meanwhile, EPs like "Gimme Summer" and "LSDMTB303" dive into more uptempo and raucous territories. A notable release, "Songs About Fucking Steve Albini," wittily nods to Big Black's iconic album "Songs About Fucking," confirming Kid606's knack for subversive homage. His constant evolution and willingness to explore have cemented Kid606's place in the electronic music world as a fearless and inventive artist.
