Death Waltz Announce Black Channels Debut

Three-track 10" from duo set for release next month

In March last year, we premiered a video for ‘Oracles’ from Black Channels, one of the two tracks from the debut single the duo self-released, which we described as tapping "the spirit of Broadcast and HTRK".

Now, they’re releasing the single as a three-track 10" via Death Waltz Originals. Still, little information is known about the pair thus far: only their names, Simon and Becky, and bases, London and Brighton. "The duo have been writing together on and off for the past few years and are sat like hens on hours of songs and sounds," reads a note accompanying the release. The 10" is out on July 17. To get more information, head here and take a look at their Tumblr page here. If you sign up to the mailing list on Black Channel’s website, you will receive a pack of free Buchla Electric Music Box ringtones created by Simon from the pair. Watch the video again above, check the artwork for the release below and pre-order the single digitally here.
