Δkkord - Navigate
HTH005
Available from: bit.ly/11AO1rN

Initially conceived as an outlet for a collective of like-minded artists from the rural outskirts of Manchester, Δkkord have already achieved more than the sum of their parts. Having self-released two long sold out records and with their ‘Surge’ track gracing the first ever 12” from the label arm of the incredibly well respected Electronic Explorations; they’ve achieved something of a cult following completely on the merits of their output. Bringing together their collected musical experience, Δkkord channel a sound that’s a hybrid of the electronic musics its members were raised on and their four track debut EP for Houndstooth is a further distillation of their passions for sonic minimalism and sound design.

Tracklist:
A1. Navigate
A2. Compound
B1. Destruction
B2. Title Sequence

this piece was delivered yesterday along with four other plates and I have to say: what a beautiful record. I made a mistake, though: I played it first, which made all the other records sound pale and boring. I can't name a tune I wouldn't enjoy. and that "Sequence" track... pure fire. it certainly takes things a bit slower and tones 'em down a bit, really dubbed out, spacey and warm vibes all over the place, yet so energetic...
in my opinion, it's the best 12" that was released so far (in 2013, that is).


big ups Rob and Akkord.
