The number of times @korrathekid brought in a new track and we stopped in our tracks to go, "What the hell is THIS??" is too many to count. Korra's set at Bad Idea on March 16 was absolutely nutty- thank god we recorded it 

Dive in for an hour of hyper-energetic, wildly diverse, and sinister-ly inspired Bad Ideas from Korra The Kid
