Leading up to the inaugural Mountain Oasis Electronic Music Summit, we’re running a series of Q+A interviews with the festival’s artists.
Kai Campos of post-dubstep duo Mount Kimbie:
Mountain Xpress: If you could have another Mountain Oasis artist remix one of your songs, who would it be?
Kai Campos: William Basinski was a big catalyst for us cracking on with some of our early work. I would love to hear what he would do with the tapes for our record.
It’s almost Halloween — do you have a costume planned, or can you tell us about a favorite costume from the past? My favorite costume I made was to a “bad taste” party but I’m slightly apprehensive about talking about it in public! Ha, it wasn’t that bad.
Do you have anything special planned for your Mountain Oasis set? Well, it’s the last show of our U.S. tour, so expect three broken men giving it everything. I’m hoping to exclusively drink champagne for the last week of the tour so it’ll be glam.
Mount Kimbie performs Sunday, 9:15 p.m. at The Orange Peel. More info here
