Sampha - Dual

We first heard the voice of Sampha Sisay on SBTRKT ’s celebrated self-titled debut record- the South London R&B crooner was featured heavily on SBTRKT , appearing on five of the eleven tracks. Since then, he’s showed up on a number of collaborations, working alongside the likes of Jessie Ware and, most recently, Drake .

Now, Sampha has come through with news of his first solo project: an EP entitled Dual , which will arrive on July 29 th via Young Turks. “Without,” the lead single, sees Sampha artfully melding acoustic and electronic sounds to create a fine piece of digital soul. Listen below and if you’re interested, read his recent interview with Pitchfork in which the artist speaks about his inspiration behind his forthcoming record.
