Mount Kimbie are back with new music ahead of an upcoming North American tour and they’ve enlisted James Blake as the vocalist on ‘We Go Home Together’.
The short song is a continuation of the atmospheric vibe of Cold Spring Fault Less Youth (which came out in 2013 and was my album of that year) and features Blake in a higher register uncharacteristic of his timbre.
It’s accompanied by a short film directed by collaborator Frank Lebon. Mount Kimbie have an NTS residency, starting this week and to include interviews and guest appearances from Julia Holter, James Blake, Actress, Oumou Sangare, Connan Mockasin, Savages, Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Moses Sumney and Ash Koosha amongst others.
