Back in 2001, Terry Tester, Buscrates and Ian Wallace sat in a van in Pittsburgh, PA bugging out over Pete Rock instrumentals. Since then, Buscrates (Bastard Jazz / Razor-N-Tape) has made a name for himself as a top shelf boogie craftsman and avid synth head, while Brooklyn’s Ian Wallace boasts a seemingly never-ending run of raw, soulful remixes with partners OP! And Nick Bike.
‘MK 3.5: Die Cuts | City Planning’ shows how Dom Maker and Kai Campos have grown over the past decade and demonstrates the two sides of Mount Kimbie’s aesthetic coin - each side produced entirely by either member. Dom’s side, ‘Die Cuts’, is colourful and melody-led, thriving on the spark of collaboration; Kai’s, ‘City Planning’, is tactile and unpredictable, the product of a deeply personal aesthetic voyage. The two sides complement each other through their contrasts. But in other ways they’re not so different. Both artists present a unique vision which stands apart from their peers; neither side could have been made by anyone but Mount Kimbie.
Exotic noise and uneasy ambience German Army is a two-piece from the San Gabriel Valley and one of the loudest voices in the underground tape scene.

When Middle Eastern heat meets Nordic melancholy… Trail of Ganoush are a London-based world music duo formed of Sass Hoory on oud and Andrin Haag on piano. The both multi-instrumentalists compose with influences from music cultures around the world, ranging from Middle Eastern music, North African rhythms to Scandinavian jazz elements. The instrumental pieces of Trail of Ganoush take you on an immersive journey with cinematic ambiance, lush vocal spheres and at times, intricate rhythm patterns. Their music style has been compared to the likes of Michael League & Bill Laurance of Snarky Puppy and Dhafer Youssef. Composers Hoory and Haag are in the process of mixing their debut album and have released their first three singles alongside captivating live videos.
