Off kilter rhythms and neck snapping instrumentals, the latest episode of Disconnecting The Dots spotlights the wonky scene that emerged in the late 2000's. Taking influence from hip hop, dubstep, electro, house, Etch provided two hours of music with tracks in the bag from the likes of Flying Lotus, Sumgii, and Hudson Mohawke.

Kola Nut Bio

Greg a.k.a. Kola Nut began playing computer games at a young age, mastering ‘Bubble Bobble’ and completing the Bitmap Brothers classic ‘Gods’, where the player is cast as Hercules in his quest to achieve immortality. He showed potential and his talent was obvious.

He was given a Megadrive by Santa Claus on the 25th December 1994. Playing games like 'Theme Park', 'Street Fighter 2', ‘Altered Beast’, ‘Cyborg Justice’, ‘Cool Spot’ and 'Fifa 95' he soon built his finger strength and hand eye co-ordination skills. Later in life 'Tekken 3' on the PS1 enhanced his ability even further learning all Yoshimitsu's moves and ten hit combos.

This dexterity and skill combined with his love for jungle music lead him neatly into the world of bedroom DJing in 2001.

He has since collaborated with scene honchos such as Law, Wheeler, Tim Reaper and more.

Along with having releases on Repertoire, R-Whites, Future Retro, Meditator, Context Audio, 7th Storey Projects, Silent Force and Sonic Force Recordings his other crowning achievements have been singing Christmas reggae at the Geneva Cyborg Convention, drawing a picture of a shopping centre and occassionally becoming MC Det.
