Saturday night, DJ Spooky That Subliminal Kid will be performing an all ages at the Cla-Zel Theater. Tickets are $10 at the door.

DJ Spooky, the stage name of artist, bassist, writer, and producer Paul D. Miller, has collaborated with artists like Korn and Metallica. Miller has also worked with music by Sonic Youth, minimalist composer Steve Reich and the avant garde work of Iannis Xenakis.

“He’s really unconventional,” said Tom MacLean, a senior computer art major and electronic music producer, “He really challenges the conventional idea of a DJ. … He coined a bunch of the terminology.”

MacLean, who is also a fan of Miller, said that on-stage Miller makes his work look very difficult.

Miller is currently touring behind his new remix CD Under the Influence. His is the first in a series of remix albums from Six Degrees Records. Artists on the album include Moby, Future Sounds of London, Emergency Broadcast Network, Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto, vocalist Sussan Deyhim and Michael Franti ‘ Spearhead.

According to his biography on Rolling Stone’s website, Miller is credited as being the most noted proponent of the idea of turntablism, which is when hip-hop and DJing ideas meet with the avant-garde. He has also written for publications including Vibe and The Village Voice.

When talking about what the audience could expect at the show, MacLean said, “They should definitely expect to be amazed.”
