Burial accidentally releases new 'Young Death' record

While notoriously elusive producer Burial is known for his flash-release stunts, this year's highly-anticipated new record was put on sale by mistake last week, and has caused the producer and his label Hyperdub to take evasive action.

12" records featuring two new songs, 'Young Death' and 'Nightmarket', were accidentally sent to Toronto-based record store Sonic Boom Records in an unmarked box last week, and were put on sale for Black Friday. As it turns out, the box of records was never intended to be shipped and now Hyperdub are speeding up the release, having listed the 12" on Discogs, with it set to go on sale on Wednesday 30th December.
