British experimental funk, world-music and industrial outfit formed in 1979, notable for fusing Gamelan and African instruments and influences with Western funk.
Key acts associated with 'post-punk', 23 Skidoo's influential releases include the albums "Seven Songs" and "Urban Gamelan" as well as the club singles "Last Words" and "Coup".
Often-sampled, the band's single "Coup" was adapted by Chemical Brothers on "Block Rockin' Beats".
