We've familiarized ourselves with Australian project merk over the past few months through various ways (his cover of Fazerdaze's "Little Uneasy" and single "Ash & Sand", just to name a couple), and, through these, he has proved the versatile, quality talent he has. Naturally, we've been excited to hear new material from the act, and, today, he's delivering just that. A ten-track endeavor titled Swordfish has been released by the Auckland native, and the project is packed with colorful, alternative vibes. The lively, unique synth progressions within provide for a serious experimental and lively flair, and, while all of his previous efforts including "I'm Easy" and "Manchuria" are included and featured seamlessly, from the new cuts we're getting here, we're finding much to enjoy as well. Absolutely, give these tracks a listen below, and, if you dig our top picks, make sure to check out the album in full on Bandcamp and/or Spotify.
