Mount Kimbie Announce New Double Album, Share Two New Singles

English electronic duo Mount Kimbie have announced the release of forthcoming double album MK 3.5: Die Cuts | City Planning, just weeks after the release of two double singles. The record is scheduled to arrive on Friday, 4th November.

Alongside news of the release, Mount Kimbie – Kai Campos and Dominic Maker – have also shared a double A-side single. The first track, ‘f1 racer (feat. Kučka)’, was produced by Maker, while the second, ‘Zone 1 (24 Hours)’, was helmed by Campos. Both tracks follow the release of non-album track ‘locked in (feat. Maxo Kream & Pa Salieu)’.

Campos and Maker explained in a statement that two other recently released double singles are “parts of individual projects” influenced by two years of working separately in Los Angeles and London.

As it turns out, MK 3.5: Die Cuts | City Planning are indeed two separate projects presented as one, with the record showing how the pair have grown over the past decade. Die Cuts was produced entirely by Maker, and is described as “colourful and melody-led, thriving on the spark of collaboration”. City Planning, the Campos-lead half of the project, is summed up as “tactile and unpredictable, the product of a deeply personal aesthetic voyage”.

“It was a really interesting time of experimentation and it’s fed back in to the work we’re doing together,” the pair said of the creative process. Mount Kimbie’s last full-length record was 2017’s critically-acclaimed Love What Survives.

MK 3.5: Die Cuts | City Planning is scheduled for release on Friday, 4th November.
