Erol Alkan included Mount Kimbie in a mixtape for XLR8R as one of his current favourite tracks of the moment. Mount Kimbie is a London based duo that produce simple, minimal thoughful tunes that are very visual. They evoke rainy images of the UK but in a very epic and hopeful way not like Burial’s dark, melancholy way. There are also a few moments that are reminiscent of Prefuse 73/Savath & Savalas. Speaking of Burial, his collab with Four Tet is amazing. Wolf Cub / Moth via GvB

“Fresh new talent, fresh beats—pretty much fresh everything.” – Erol Alkan

Whenever I listen to Duke Dumont I feel super chilled out or like I am a bunch of pills. I love what Duke Dumont does to this Lily Allen track. Definitely a track you play on the way home after a long night. Duke Dumont’s productions are super visual sounding, very similar to Burial.

Foamo provides a re-edit of Skream’s remix of La Roux’s In for the Kill. Foamo turns the track into a Burial-esque sounding track with a little more kick, definitely an end track to a rainy night. Speaking of Burial what is he up to I want more music from him.
