° VIDEO: Mount Kimbie – “Before I Move Off” °
by Chief

Mount Kimbie‘s Crooks and Lovers was probably the first album to make people take the term “post dubstep” seriously, and this Tyrone Lebon directed video for Before I Move Off is a powerful accompaniment to their sound. Lebon has done all of the artwork for the release, and I’m hoping to see a lot more from him in the future. You can find Crooks and Lovers on Amazon for less than $9.

by Danger

We at DID are big fans of Mount Kimbie, and naturally were thrilled to hear that they not only have a forthcoming EP, entitled Blind Night Errand, but that in anticipation of it, they’re giving away a free track, “Ruby”. I’m excited to hear anything and everything from these guys. You can download the track for free by clicking the link below, and be sure to check out Crooks & Lovers if you’re not already in the know.
