“Ten Strikes” is the new single from O’Spada which sounds very similar to their previous one “Time”. Thankfully, Keith Thompson & Zach Curd of Desktop stepped in & twisted the song.

O’Spada | Desktop

Desktop is Keith Thompson from Electric Six & Zach Curd from The Pop Project.

Desktop is unlike Curd’s & Thompson’s other projects, meeting somewhere between Stevie Wonder, New Order & 80s Detroit techno. Thompson’s thick & driving bass lines & Curd’s rich, reverb-drenched harmonies stand out as highlights of their debut self-titled EP. The EP was completely collaborative from the onset, with Thompson & Curd constantly revising each other’s contributions, at all times pushing for the goal of a better song. Thompson & Curd developed the recordings completely via the internet, never actually working on anything together in the same room.

The EP is available for free on Desktop’s official site. A very limited run of 200 12″ with letterpressed jackets will be available via Suburban Sprawl Music/Quack Media on September 29th.
