Mount Kimbie recently played at the Belgian festival, 10 Days Off showcasing new tracks from their fantastic album, “Crooks & Lovers”. This live performance is part DJ set meets live electronics with guitar- a very tasteful and delicate way of bringing their gorgeous music to a live environment. I will definitely be at their Brooklyn show, check out their North American tour dates here.
Here is a live unreleased track from Phoenix that they played at the Southside festival in 2005, Jetplane. It was slated to be on It’s Never Been Like That but didn’t make the cut. It is definitely a different vibe for them and a b-side sounding track. Thomas Hedlund (drums) channels his Steward Copeland at some points in the tune to give it a very Police-y sound. Thoughts?

Phoenix was amazing on SNL last night. They got to play 3 songs too! Phoenix is definitely trying hard to win over the American market. The drummer is such a beast.
