  • Sam Annand is set to release his debut album as Architeq later this year. The London-based Scotsman hasn't been particularly prolific over the past two years, but the tracks he has unveiled have already made waves with fans of both disco, dub, and wonky instumental hip-hop. Last year's Birds Of Prey EP may have been his debut single, but showed an admirable level of production expertise with his slow wiggling grooves and off-kilter funk. Three of the tracks from Birds Of Prey have found their way onto the full-length, which goes by the title of Green And Gold, but there will be ten brand new cuts for eager fans to get their teeth into, including three vocal contributions. The dulcet tones of Sunharbour vocalist Junior Williams sits atop the lilting "Nothing," Ilija Rudman gets on the mic for the electro-boogie of "Mind Games," and Angéle David Gillou compliments the strutting jazz piano of "Spinning Plates." Tracklist 01. Twilight 02. Krakatoa 03. Nothing (feat. Junior Williams) 04. Into The Cosmos 05. Dark Matter 06. Babylon 07. Spinning Plates (feat. Angéle David Gillou) 08. Odyssey 09. Sleeping Bear Lament 10. Meteorite Shower 11. Mind Games (with Ilija Rudman) 12. Fox Tails 13. Birds Of Prey 14. Birds Of Dub (Version) Tirk will release Architeq's Green And Gold on September 7th, 2009.
