BUY KID GINSENG TRACKS
In 1997 Kid Ginseng started as a hip hop DJ concentrating on electrofunk from 1982 to roughly ‘89.
In 2000 he began to make megamixes that he imagined would play at the Funhouse (circa early 80s NYC.) He threw in short bursts of favorites by the likes of Jonzun Crew and HASHIM. He was also inspired by Eddie Def to use samples from comedy records, scary stories, and video games.
In 2001 Ginseng and partner Jonny Steady made a kut and skratch song under the name KRAFTJERKZ for bay area label, Hip Hop Slam. It was a favorite on hip hop slam’s Scratch Attack radio show. It ended up featured on the vol. 1 compilation of the same name. By the time Scratch Attack vol. 3 came out, Ginseng’s name had shared the credits with others such as DJ Quest of the Space Travelers, along with Shortkut and Qbert of the legendary Invisibl Skratch Piklz.
During the ‘02 Ginseng made some bizarre synth music on an ancient 4-track. nice and compressed:) also during this time Ginseng toured as DJ for The Tom Tom Club (Genius of Love.) By ‘03 he had done two Tom Tom Club tours in addition to touring and recording with Mad HaPPy.
Fast forward to now. Kid Ginseng has made three solo EP’s. The third was titled “BLESSE” for dutch label, La La Land. The EP was released in Den Haag just before a performance sharing the stage with Chicks On Speed, playing to an audience of over 900.
since then he has played in Belgium and toured as Tom Tom Club’s DJ playing in such places as the UK, Spain, and 2 shows in Japan. Now with countless shows under his belt, Ginseng is gathering new material while playing shows to rowdy followers. Also, in ‘07 Ginseng began Kraftjerkz records, releasing numerous 12”s of electropunk, acid, and bassline house. In the next few months records will be released faster and by elite producers from around the world.
