Kid606 is the stage name of Miguel Trost De Pedro, an electronic musician who was born 1979 July 27 in Caracas, Venezuela, raised in San Diego and later moved to San Francisco. He is most closely associated with the glitch, IDM, Hardcore techno, and Breakcore scenes. Kid606's music is similar to the work of his friend and colleague Lesser, as well as hardcore and IDM acts such as Atari Teenage Riot, Autechre, Mr. Oizo, Pan Sonic, and Matmos. He is primarily inspired not by his electronic contemporaries, but by his love of the Industrial music, Death metal, and Industrial metal of the 1980s and 90s, particularly bands like Godflesh and Napalm Death. His music is known for its high tempo breakbeats and liberal use of noise and sampling, as well as its punk aesthetic, uninhibited genre-mixing, and irreverent sense of humor. However, he is equally adept at creating more serious tracks that often reside in the realm of ambient and glitch ( "Parenthood" from Kill Sound Before Sound Kills You and the entirety of P.S. I Love You being good examples).
