Björk mixes music from Death Grips, Kate Bush and a number of Tri Angle artists in DJ set recorded at Tri-Angle's fifth anniversary party in New York last Friday; hear it below

On Friday night, Tri Angle took over a basement at J.P. Morgan’s old headquarters in New York’s Wall Street, in connection with RBMA, to celebrate their fifth anniversary. The night opened with a surprise DJ set from friend of the label Björk, and she has just uploaded audio from her set, via Soundcloud - that’s it above.

The upload was accompanied with the following message from Björk herself: “i would like to wish tri angle label an incredibly sublime birthday and thank for having been invited to dj at their party . couldnt possibly been more honoured than to play in that company !!! the mix i played was my present to them : merging together some of my fav beats last year with some of my fav vocalists doing some of their best songs!!! this is my tune-tinder !!!” The mix features music from Death Grips, Kate Bush, Cut Hands and Tri-Angle signees including The Haxan Cloak, Vessel, Rabit and Lotic, among many others. Björk released her latest album Vulnicura earlier this year and is set to tour the album this summer, playing a number of festival shows accompanied by The Haxan Cloak.
