Kap Bambino is a French electronic music duo created in 2001 by Orion Bouvier and Caroline Martial in Bordeaux, France.[1][2][3]

Style and themes

The group is known for Caroline Martial's wild vocals, Orion Bouvier's intense electronic beats, and their exciting live performances. In 2001 Martial formed the group's own independent label, "wwilko". They performed at the festivals Dot to Dot in 2007 and ZXZW in 2009. They have been featured in NME, Another Magazine, Dummy Mag and Dazed & Confused. The group was featured in Matt Irwin's 2007 film for Armani Exchange. Caroline was listed among the "hottest young models in London and New York." The group has independently toured all over Europe, Japan and Latin America. In 2009, they were a part of SXSW, and their single "Dead Lazers" made BIGSTEREO's May 2009 charts for top downloads, placed number 8.

The two have separate side projects outside of Kap Bambino, Bouvier is "Groupgris", and Martial is "Khima France".
