MP3(s) of the Day #824: Delphic
What timing. Their ears must be burning. Ahead of my holiday in Manchester this weekend, Delphic have released a new – and entirely free – mixtape for your delectation. I use the word ‘delectation’ because it is quite a tasty offering, which I’m pleased to say after our disappointment in last year’s ‘Collections’.
It’s called ‘Get Familiar’, which seems an entirely appropriate title for the sevensong-strong set. It seems to be the missing link between their brilliant 2010 debut album and hit spawning ‘Acolyte’ and 2013’s confounding experimentation. ‘Colours of the Day’, previously only heard as a demo in 2011, has been fleshed out to great effect. Quite possibly the best track in here is ‘The Giver’, which sees the band go back to what we loved about them in the first place: their effortless combining of electro with rock to make a wholly danceable tune. Good showing.
