Saw the at the WHP fairly recently. They were really good, and it was really weird seeing them before loads of DJs essentially playing straight up dance music. Their set wasn't so much like that. It was a really cool live show though, I didn't know what to expect and wasn't at all disappointed, really enjoyed it. Some people were disappointed though, probably because it wasn't so much like the stuff they've released in the main. Might be a good idea to check out some of their live stuff on youtube or something.

Amazing duo. The "Sketch on glass" ep takes me strange places.
I missed a rare opportunity to see them (and Four Tet!) live last summer which was quite a bummer as I don't live in the UK...Hoping to catch a show someday.

I think seeing them is a must then!
I quite like it when you see 'acts' or 'duos' etc doing dance music instead of just DJ's..
I saw Four Tet at Glasto last year, was on the sunday night when I was fucking shattered and it completely mellowed me out! Was amazing.

fucking love mt kimbie. great live show. great tunes.
Wow, those videos were very impressive. I really want to see them perform now. Very fluid; they should probably release a live album as they get their live set a little tighter.

Not quite a live album or anything, but one of the tracks on this 12 is live, and very good
