Uploading bootleg edits of Jeremih and 2 Chainz, and doing an official remix for Lana Del Rey, Cashmere Cat quickly gained thousands of cat-loving listeners online and support from DJ´s like Hudson Mohawke, Rustie, Brodinski, Baauer, Busy P, Nguzunguzu, Sinden, Flosstradamus, Kito ++.

The cat´s take on seductive R&B, futuristic hip-hop and bass music caught the attention of Paris Social Club residents Pelican Fly Records, who released his debut EP “Mirror Maru” in October 2012, which got a strong viral buzz – even stayed number 1 in Hypem most popular charts for 3 days straight.

Behind the razor-sharp-but-soft-and-furry paws of Cashmere Cat hides Magnus August Høiberg. The Oslo-based producer used to lurk behind the scenes of disco and house-music, previously working with labels like Kitsuné and Ninja Tune. As Cashmere Cat, a project that is little over a year old, he embraces his true love – gritty R&B and slow jamz.
