Premiere: Kempt Share Commune (DJ IBG REMIX)

Kempt just released their new single “Commune” exclusively with The Hype Magazine. When talking about the track James Hanna says “Unapologetic dance pop fused with reverb-drenched dream pop guitars. Commune is Judd Nelson walking out of detention listening to Slowdive headphones.”

Last year they released a brand new EP entitled “Blissing?”. It was the first in a series of EPs from the newly formed duo of James Hanna (Asobi Seksu) and MC Wolfe (Dance for the Dying).

Kempt is James Hanna (ex. Asobi Seksu) and MC Wolfe (ex. Dance for the Dying). Formed in Brooklyn in the winter of 2018, the duo marries Hanna’s atmospheric and heavily layered guitar work with MC’s ethereal vocals over sub-heavy, goth-inspired electro beats.

Kempt ’s live show adds to the intensity with hypnotic strobe lights and video projections. Complementing the wall of textured guitar and haunting vocal harmonies which glide in and out of focus above their shimmering blend of Dreampop, Electro, and Noise.

Blissing? is the first in a series of EP’s written and produced by Hanna at his own Harm Reduction studios in Brooklyn.
