The Folk Implosion Announces 'Music For KIDS' Reissue

The Folk Implosion, Lou Barlow and John Davis’s recently reactivated musical project, will release Music For KIDS, a deluxe reissue of their original compositions that soundtracked Harmony Korine and Larry Clark’s 1995 cult classic film, on September 8th on Domino. Nearly 30 years after Kids’ seismic release, Music For KIDS compiles for the first time all of the songs the duo wrote for the movie, newly remastered, including B-sides and previously unreleased tracks. Many will be available on streaming services for the first time in a very long time, including the band’s most famous song, the surprise Top 40 hit single “Natural One.” The album also adds remixes by UNKLE (James Lavelle and DJ Shadow) and Dust Brothers and an instrumental version of “Nothing Gonna Stop.” 

Today listeners can stream both the original “Natural One” and the UNKLE remix of the track. The Folk Implosion also shares a live video of the track, recorded in March of this year at Mitch Easter’s Fidelitorium Recordings studios in North Carolina. Barlow and Davis are joined in the performance by Alex Lazara, Dariush Mirsajedin, and James Phillips.
