Music : Body&Soul Main Stage 2011 : Mount Kimbie
The past year has seen new currents emerge in bass music. With familiar beats underneath otherworldly productions, Mount Kimbie are arguably responsible for the birth of the term “post-dubstep.” Glitchy, atmospheric producers such as James Blake have taken things down a notch, ending the bass wars with a period of blissed out silence.
London duo Mount Kimbie have sat at the centre of these developments. A string of EPs and 12 inches led up to their debut album 'Crooks And Lovers' last summer, which became a slow burning success.
Mixing post-rock atmospherics with post-garage beats, Mount Kimbie (Kai Campos , & Dom Maker) have won acceptance far beyond electronic circles.
