Mount Kimbie – “You Took Your Time”

King Krule Joins the South London Drifters on a Journey Into the Edgelands

"Where should we escape when we have no place to go?” muses Swedish director Marcus Söderlund of his new video to introspective electronic duo Mount Kimbie’s sweeping single, “You Took Your Time,” filmed on location just outside London in the marshy, urban landscape of Tilbury, Essex. “In a more equal society, the suburbs wouldn’t be places you have to leave.” The director is best known for his iconic monochrome video to The xx’s, “VCR.” “I love color. But I also find it really calming to work in black and white, it’s like your senses becomes sharper once you desaturate.” The song features the hostile vocal flow of 23-year-old rapper, King Krule aka Archie Marshall, and is taken from Warp Records-released Cold Spring Fault Less Youth, Mount Kimbie’s follow-up to the acclaimed debut Crooks & Lovers.
