First Word Records is very pleased to welcome back Werkha!
Following on from his EP 'The Rigour' from early 2020, the Mancunian musician returns with the first taste of his new material, and what a taste it is!
'Battered Mars Bar' is some shuffling chippy-inspired uptempo breaks, accompanied with squelching synths and a seriously funked-up bassline courtesy of Tom Driessler, who's worked with the likes of Adele, Yussef Kamaal, Rosie Lowe, Tom Misch & Jordan Rakei. Short and very sweet, and containing more fat than is probably deemed healthy, this one is just a vibe.
MUCH more to come from Werkha on First Word in the coming months…

"For the fifteenth instalment of this compilation series I’ve picked one track from each of the year’s releases (including selections from our sister label Excursions) with a couple of exclusives added, rounding it out to 17 tracks of soul, hip hop, beats, jazz and bruk. "
Name a price for a finest selection ! K.Rise
