Mount Kimbie

Mount Kimbie is an English electronic music duo consisting of Dominic Maker and Kai Campos. They formed the group in London in 2008 and released their debut album Crooks & Lovers in 2010 to critical acclaim.

The band released their second album, Cold Spring Fault Less Youth, in 2013 through Warp Records.

History

Kai Campos is originally from St. Austell in Cornwall, while Dom Maker is from Brighton. They met at Southbank University in London, where Campos was having another go at university and Maker was studying film. They started making music together at a home studio in Peckham.

Arguably responsible for the term "post-dubstep", the duo has released a series of EPs and their highly praised debut album Crooks & Lovers. The Guardian described the pair as "leading an exploratory breakaway from bass-heavy dubstep towards a lighter, hazier style of electronica rich with drowsy ambience and chopped-up found sounds."

The band's debut album, entitled Crooks and Lovers, was released on 19 June 2010 in the UK to critical acclaim, and achieved a 7.9 ADM Rating on review aggregator website AnyDecentMusic?.

Blood And Form

by: Mount Kimbie

Been blessed and I've been cursed
I'm reaching passed the same grade
Get undressed 'cause I've been hurt
And I'm sure we're more alike these days
True to blood and form
These mistakes I would pay for
Taking good from scorn
I would want you to have more
Been warned of this habit
But I'll make what I can of this love
And they'll talk of the damage
And leave nothing at all to speak of
Been blessed and I've been cursed
Reaching passed the same grade
Undressed 'cause I've been hurt
And I'm sure we're more alike these days
Been warned of this habit
But I'll make what I can of this love
And they'll talk of the damage
And leave nothing at all to speak of
Thin air I'll share with those who care
Much less to stare
Poor form to poor scorn there
Thin air I'll share with those who care
Much less to stare
Poor form to poor scorn there
Thin air I'll share with those who care
Much less to stare
Poor form to poor scorn there
True to blood and form,
These mistakes I get paid for
Taking good from scorn
I know that I have more
True to blood and form,
These mistakes I get paid for
Taking good from scorn
