Nufonia must fall

For a DJ who, in his early twenties, became the first North American to be signed to the highly respected Ninja Tune label, who now fronts a successful jazz band, and whose CV includes work with groups such as The Beastie Boys, Radiohead and platinum-selling Gorillaz, there might seem little left to accomplish.

Not so for the ever-inventive young Kid Koala - his latest venture inspired by both silent films and comic books and executed in beautifully shaded black and white illustrations, is the first publication of its kind.

Featuring a "soundtrack" with ten exclusive tracks composed and performed by the author, NUFONIA MUST FALL is the eccentric and touching story of a robot and his attempts to write love songs to woo the workaholic girl of his dreams.

With a touch of The Little Prince, a little Woody Allen and a hint of Gary Larson this fresh new title will appeal to Kid Koala and comic book fans as well as film buffs and music lovers.
