Mount Kimbie at Abbey Road

Listen: Mount Kimbie 'Before I Moved Off (Abbey Road Debuts recording)'

News by Sean Adams

T'other week, DiS was invited along to the legendary-doesn't-quite-cover-it Abbey Road studios, to see and hear the filming of a new TV show called Abbey Road debuts. And not just any ol' TV show that throws together a bunch of 'new' bands that no-one will give a toss about in 3months time (hello Delphic!) but a show that cherry-picks acts that are intriguing and genuinely special. The recording I bobbed along to was with Mount Kimbie and to say it was a 'bit good' is like saying an ice cold pint of bitter shandy is 'alright' on a sweltering day.»

Pretty mouthwatering all in all, including three bands who have produced fantastic records this year, two British, one Canadian. »
