Akkord reveal more music from forthcoming debut album

Shady Houndstooth-signed duo Akkord will release their self-titled debut album next Monday, November 25.

As we pointed out earlier this month, the group have been gradually revealing more and more music from the album in unconventional fashions, including a track playing on an Akkord hotline, a sticker in a flyer pack and more. Here’s what we posted at the time:

We’ve already had a cryptic countdown on the group’s Tumblr pointing to the album’s release date on November 25, and the months since have seen audio of ‘Conveyor’ revealed via a sticker in a flyer pack, album opener ‘Torr Vale’ available to hear by calling the a phone number on the group’s website (01618K0RDAK), and another track, ‘Smoke Circle’, debuted inHoundstooths’s takeover of Juno. You can also see a video for album closer ‘Undertow’ by clicking the track title on the Akkord website. Sure, it’s not quite Boards of Canada, but it beats the usual pre-release roll-out, right?

Since that post there’s been several more reveals: Jim Al-Khalili, theoretical physicist, spilt the beans on this track, while XLR8R and Pitchfork dropping ‘Folded Edge’ and ‘Hex_ad’ respectively. The last track from the album will be revealed through Rob da Bank’s Radio 1 show this weekend, before the campaign concludes with the full stream of Akkord on FACT on November 25.
