Three decades following the film's initial release, The Folk Implosion's legendary film soundtrack is making a triumphant return under the title Music For KIDS. The album contains previously unreleased compositions, including a fresh take on Natural One; the surprise Top 40 hit single from the original film score.
“We did a lot of jamming in the studio… ‘Natural One’ started out as a jam,” says Barlow. Despite not actually appearing in the film, the bittersweet dissonance of Natural One clearly became the defining sound of the Kids' soundtrack – even peaking at #29 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Featuring an expansive 18-track selection, this reissue offers profound insights into a film that epitomized the mid-'90s New York City street culture zeitgeist. It vividly illustrates how Barlow and Davis fearlessly embarked on an experimental journey, crafting music with unbridled passion.
