Cashmere Cat

Magnus August Høiberg, best known under the artist name Cashmere Cat, is a Norwegian musician, producer and DJ/turntablist (representing Norway in the DMC World DJ Championships as DJ FINAL 2006-2009). He appeared on the international electronic dance music scene in 2012, with remixes/edits of Lana Del Rey, 2 Chainz and Jeremih. Cashmere Cat's debut EP Mirror Maru was released in October 2012 on the Belgian Pelican Fly label. Cashmere Cat's take on seductive R&B, futuristic hip-hop and bass music gained support from electronic music notables such as Hudson Mohawke, Rustie and Gilles Peterson. The EP's title track, "Mirror Maru", was included on the Grand Theft Auto V soundtrack in 2013. In October 2012, Cashmere Cat's edit of 2 Chainz' "No Lie" was ranked by the influential VIBE music magazine as #1 on a list of "25 Awesome Genre-Benders of 2012". Superstar producer Benny Blanco invited Høiberg to Los Angeles in January 2013, to collaborate on studio production work and to give his first US concerts as Cashmere Cat.
