‘Empty And Silent’ marks the second of two collaborations to feature on Mount Kimbie’s forthcoming album The Sunset Violent.
Mount Kimbie have shared a new single written in collaboration with British singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer King Krule.
‘Empty And Silent’ marks the latest preview of the British electronic outfit’s looming and long-awaited fourth album The Sunset Violet, which releases on April 5th through venerable independent imprint Warp. In addition to featuring two guest appearances from King Krule’s Archy Marshall the album – which is said to have been inspired by the alleged UFO sightings and desert landscape of California’s Yucca Valley where much of the track list’s writing sessions unfolded – is Mount Kimbie’s first full-length effort to materialise since expanding their studio lineup to a quartet configuration featuring drummer Marc Pell and keyboardist Andrea Balency-Béarn.
