MICA LEVI (AKA MICACHU)

Mica Levi (aka Micachu)

24 year old Mica Levi – aka Micachu – has quickly set out her stall as one of the most original, challenging and unique new artists in the country: alongside the universally acclaimed debut 'Jewellery' (Rough Trade), Micachu has received commissions from the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the London Sinfonietta, and now the Barbican, and toured with Deerhunter, Arcade Fire and Spoon. Halfway through the making of 'Jewellery' which she worked on with Matthew Herbert, she joined forces with Raisa K and Marc Withasee to form Micachu and the Shapes, resulting in half that album being recorded with The Shapes and half of her own electronic solo work. Since then the band have toured extensively in the U.S., Europe & Australia.

Micachu & Raisa K remix under the guise 'M.A.T.H.E.S' for artists including The XX, Metronomy, Roots Manuva, Konono No.1 and Jamie Liddell. Micachu has also released four mixtapes available for free download: 'Filthy Friends', 'Kwesachu vol.1 w/ Kwes', 'Kwake Bass VS Micachu - Meat Batch' and 'Chopped&Screwed' mixtape.
