The distinctively fragile tones of Sampha have been such an omnipresent emotive force in recent pop history that it's somewhat hard to fathom this six track EP for Young Turks is his debut release proper. Though the singer and producer, real name Sampha Sissay, released a limited handsprayed Sundanza CDr online through Young Turks back in 2010, it's through a series of collaborations that he's become more widely known. That same year he paired up with SBTRKT for an EP on Ramp, later featured prominently on the masked producer's hugely popular debut album, and has also collaborated with Jessie Ware and Lil Silva. Having further strengthened his collaborations CV with an EP as Short Stories alongside Koreless on Young Turks earlier this year, Sampha returns to the West London label with the glorious Dual EP. Allegedly some 18 months in the making, Sampha worked on the six tracks in-between his touring duties as part of the SBTRKT live band, recording at his childhood home in Morden, South West London. Everything on the EP was sung, produced and mixed by Sissay himself, and includes a new version of the demo track "Indecision" first heard back in 2011 along with five new tracks.
