A classically trained musician, they have broken onto the electronic music scene adapting customary practices to deliver a totally unique avenue within dance. Their breakout debut 'Breaking My Mind” released via the iconic imprint Hotflush was an expertly executed exercise in restraint and control. Featuring the self titled track along side "Ritual" and a Jacques Greene remix, the hypnotic club EP showed an adept knowledge of dancefloor culture. The EP received acclaim from artists such as Jamie XX, Jaguar and Sasha, whilst BBC Radio1's Jack Saunders proclaimed Kiimi as 'the future of electronic music’. Following on from this in November of 2021 Kiimi released their most accomplished work to date in the form of the two tracks ‘Trust' and 'Lanzarote Howl' which for the first time showcase their songwriting prowess, crafting electronic euphoria with a real emotional connection. The releases was again supported by the likes of HAAI, Scuba, Jamz Supanova and The Blessed Madonna, with the latter picking Kiimi as one of her artists to watch in 2022 on her BBC6Music show. Further to their production output, Kiimi who identifies as non-binary, has created the online network Hunni Sound. It is a platform for femme-identifying, non-binary and trans music producers & creators within audio tech. Partnering with Shoreditch House and Dalston Superstore the collective has hosted a series of events and aims to expand into workshops for the growing Hunni Sound community moving forward.
