Mount Kimbie - Flux
"Flux" sounds like the title, and sounds too like the EP it comes from, "Carbonated." Mount Kimbie is, without a doubt, the go-to group for headphonophiliac, non-Euclidean sound geometries; lots of discontinuous functions in their songs, gaps in the domain, surprising outputs and results. Their music does some of the same work as Black Dice's--it's adventurous, but not recklessly so. There's still a vague relationship with familiar forms. I feel like they're one of those groups that will so transcend whatever scene they started in (dubstep, kind of) to the point where you forget their history entirely (maybe close to the way people don't really talk about Radiohead as brit-pop band or U2 as a post-punk band).[Buy the Carbonated EP]
