Kish Mauve 'Morphine' Video

Whether your DAB is tuned to Radio 1 or you listen to bootlegged tapes bartered for in a Timbuktu bazaar, chances are you will have already heard a Kish Mauve song.

Far too impressive to leave nestled deep among tales of formative gigs and favourite films, Kish Mauve’s debut EP (of 2005) featured a certain ‘Two Hearts’, the hit song that crashed into our collective cranium when sung by Australian popsicle Kylie. If that isn’t enough to tickle your pop loving ears, which, c’mon, it must be, Kylie returns the favour on Kish Mauve’s forthcoming debut album, ‘Black Heart’. The impish pop star has co-written ‘You Make Me Feel’ in something that Jim Eliot and Mima Stilwell, the duo behind Kish Mauve, call a “pop swap.” It’s a damn sight more impressive than any Panini sticker swap, we think you’ll agree.

Whether you want to call it reflective club music or pulsing electro-rock, Kish Mauve’s is an elegant, silver-plated mix that just a few months into their return has already seen Kate Moss pout along to their songs in a Rimmel London advert, and hit American TV show ‘Dirty Sexy Money’ use a couple of tracks.
