Matt and Kim are great people. From the moment you see them, whether they are taking the stage at Pitchfork or running in the nude from NYC police in times square (as seen in their video for “Lessons Learned”…I’m sure they learned something from that experience), they are bound to put a smile on your face. The Brooklyn natives have been making music for a while now, and they finally seem to be getting some mainstream recognition, although they have had an incredibly loyal fan base since their birth. Combining Matt’s messy voice and rapid synth melodies with the bang of Kim’s drum, the two have a system that has been working well for quite sometime. Although the second day of Pitchfork experienced generally gloomy weather, the clouds seemed to part just for Matt and Kim’s performance. They went into some dance party covers, including “Samir’s Theme”and “Hip-Hop”, keeping the crowd on their feet for the duration of their set. Kim even had a dance solo, where she tried to imitate Beyonce’s booty drop after becoming inspired at B’s Madison Sqaure Garden performance.
