Mount Kimbie, released their acclaimed 3rd studio album ‘Love What Survives’ in 2017, which featured stand-out collaboration with the likes of James Blake, King Krule and Mica Levi. Since then they have featured on Slowthai’s ‘TYSON’ album, whilst Kai curated a DJ-Kicks mix which offered a prismic look at Berlin minimalism, snapping electro and pounding techno through the same restless experimental lens as their studio work.

Actress and Mount Kimbie have a long standing history and appreciation of each other’s work. In 2018 they embarked on a B2B tour and performed a rare NTS show together as part of Mount Kimbie’s residency in 2017.
