Knife Party have had two more singles leaked off their upcoming album “Abandon Ship“. And the duo have turned on their “Boss Mode” for the first one. The single starts off with proper dubstep elements, a sound that Knife Party has been come to known for, but they surprise us with the breakdown, which takes a surprising turn towards Trap, with synths similar to Dillon Francis and DJ Snake‘s “Get Low“.
Though the single was leaked, Rob Swire shared the link through Twitter, acknowledging the fact that probably someone at iTunes, Beatport or Spotify could have leaked it.
(oh, and the actual master sounds 20000% better than that MP3
)

The second single to have been leaked from the album is “Begin Again“. The single relies on heavy synths, a distinctive percussive line and Rob Swire‘s vocals, giving it a quite different sound to what Knife Party are usually known for. The track has received airplay on Zane Lowe‘s radio show on BBC Radio 1, and even going on to become the “Single of the Week“.
