Mount Kimbie - Love What Survives - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Since 2009, Dominic Maker and his partner in Mount Kimbie, Kai Campos, have played a central role in forging a new form for electronic music. Their influence stretches far beyond the corner of the dance music underground that birthed them. They have repeatedly confounded expectations, transforming themselves from bedroom-studio producers to creators of one of the most fully realized electronic album-length statements of recent years and refining their live show to incorporate live drums, bass, guitar and vocals. With their second album, Cold Spring Fault Less Youth, finally completed, the perception of Mount Kimbie looks set to expand again.

Songs without words in the velvety smoothness of a splendid brass instrument this is what we are offered by the new GENUIN of the Duo GIOVIVO from Switzerland. Fabian Bloch (euphonium) and Muriel Zeiter (piano) take us on a journey through three centuries of masterpieces to which they lend a new voice. Beethoven's Ich liebe Dich and Kreisler's Liebesleid, Fauré's Berceuse and Bach's famous Wenn Schafe sicher weiden can be found here. With it's title Rather Romantic, much of the music on this album is not only genuinely romantic but also revolves around the eternal theme of love. As Robert Schumann's famous Widmung says, InchThou my world, in which I live, my heaven thou, to which I aspire...Inch

The musical duo Mount Kimbie present a the double album, MK 3.5 Die Cut City Planning, highlighting the individual work and production styles of Dom Maker and Kai Campos. Die Cuts showcases Dom's work as a producer; skipping between hip-hop, RnB, and electronic pop, the album combines high class songcraft with a delicate leftfield touch, and featuring a cast of vocalists. Kai's City Planning twists avant-garde signifiers into a deft and refined statement with sleek beats and stuttering arpeggios layered with scuzz and personality, making for an album that's warm and inviting even at it's most confrontational. MK 3.5 Die Cut City Planning shows how Dom and Kai have grown over the past decade, and demonstrates the two sides of Mount Kimbie's aesthetic coin.Die Cuts01.
