Jean-Yves Prieur, a.k.a. Kid Loco is a French electronic musician, DJ, remixer and producer.[1] He was born on 19 June 1964 in Antony, Hauts-de-Seine, France. Allmusic considers his style to be similar to Air and Dimitri from Paris. His best-known album is A Grand Love Story (1997),[1] and he has also compiled and mixed a DJ mix album for the Another Late Night series on Azuli Records.
