Marc Pell: Last News

Micachu And The Shapes are back! Kind of. Five years on from their third album, ‘Good Sad Happy Bad’, they have returned under the new name – coincidentally – Good Sad Happy Bad.They actually announced the name change in 2016, but whatever, we were distracted by band leader Mica Levi’s burgeoning career as an in-demand Hollywood soundtrack composer back then.

Mount Kimbie have teamed up with their longtime collaborator King Krule on their latest single ‘Empty And Silent’.The six-minute track is the latest offering from the group – comprised of Lynchpin duo Dominic Maker and Kai Campos alongside Andrea Balency-Béarn and Marc Pell – forthcoming LP ‘The Sunset Violent’. ‘Empty And Silent’ follows the previously released single ‘Fishbrain’.‘Empty And Silent’ sees King Krule – real name Archy Marshall – sing over a bright, picturesque beat featuring a pulsing bass line, clean guitar riff and crisp drumming. Directed by Gregory Prestön, the track’s accompanying visualiser features clips of the sky, highways, flowers and tiles.Mount Kimbie and King Krule have previously worked together on the group’s tracks ‘You Took Your Time’ and ‘Meter, Pale, Tone’ from their 2013 LP ‘Cold Spring Fault Less Youth’.
