Akkord

Akkord (sometimes stylized while Δkkord) can be an electronic music duo from Manchester, Britain, whose hard-to-pin-down audio traverses the range which range from sparse, experimental drum’n’bass to large, dread-filled post-dubstep. The duo was shaped in 2011 by Synkro (Joe McBride) and Indigo (Liam Blackburn), drum’n’bass/dubstep makers who got previously released many collaborative 12″ singles collectively. Akkord’s 1st two releases arrived by means of self-released white-label singles in 2012, both including highly comprehensive bass-heavy abstract dance music. The duo quickly authorized with Fabric sublabel Houndstooth, and released the dark, dubby Navigate EP in-may of 2013. Akkord’s self-titled debut full-length came by the finish of the entire year, discovering dark ambient textures aswell as mutated U.K. garage-influenced beats, placing them together with artists such as for example Demdike Stare and Objekt. The duo paid tribute with their jungle root base in 2014, you start with a divide 12″ with Paul Woolford’s Particular Request moniker where the two tasks remixed each other’s music. Akkord’s HTH020 EP, released the same calendar year, included breakbeat-heavy monitor “Continuum” alongside even more murky, abstract materials. Remix 12″ HTH030 completed out the entire year, filled with HTH020 monitors remixed with the Haxan Cloak and Vatican Darkness. Both EPs, along with remixes by Regis and Fis (afterwards released as another 12″), had been released as the Compact disc compilation HTH035 in 2015.
