Description

Episode 234 of Look At My Records! features an interview with Sun Kin. The Los Angeles-based project of Kabir Kumar just released a new record titled Sunset World, which has been years in the making. The record features songs written as far back as November 2020 and thematically, explores the dichotomy between the beauty and terror of the natural world and the convenience of the virtual. The album also features a litany of collaborators, including Kabir’s partner Nicole Levin, his bandmates in Guppy, Julian Fader of Ava Luna, Dawson Timpany of Plum, and Mark “Echo” Edwards of Cheekface. We chatted about all of this and more, including how the previously mentioned collaborations informed the record and how Khalid partially inspired the song “Water Turns Black At Night.” Plus, Kabir picked some awesome records, including choice cuts from Depeche Mode, Tele Novella, and Twin Sister. You can follow along with his picks via the official playlist for Episode 234.

Sun Kin will be celebrating the release of Sunset World this Saturday, April 27th at the Scribble Community Center in Los Angeles. Pacing and Preformer are also on the bill.

You can purchase Sunset World on Bandcamp. The album is also available on all streaming platforms. Keep up with the project via Instagram.
