Kid Carpet – Olympic Salute

The Bristol star's unusual sporting video

Bristol electronic oddball Kid Carpet has released an unusual tribute to the sporting heroes on display at the Olympics…

The video features some famous clips of sporting events going badly wrong, a compilation of falls, trips and other disasters all set to a new track from the boy wonder. Kid Carpet is interviewed in the current issue of Clash Magazine, talking about his vast collection of children’s toys – which he uses to concoct such wonderful noises.

The new track is entitled “Failed World Record Attempt” and is a typically ramshackle yet endearing slice of self deprecating electro. Kid Carpet released his second album “Casino Royale” in June through Sunday Best, and this track is a great introduction to his music.

Watch the hilarious clip for “Failed World Record Attempt” below…
