Don't let SBTRKT's aversion to vowels put you off. The anonymous producer's self-titled debut album (released via Young Turks) pulls off a series of impressive feats: it's bursting with fresh ideas, and yet it sounds immediately familiar; it's warm yet gritty, playful yet seriously powerful. SBTRKT's nuanced, purposeful production is augmented by the silky smooth guest vocals of Sampha (accompanying SBTRKT at the festival), Roses Gabor, Jessie Ware and Little Dragon. It's a record that marks SBTRKT as a standout of the pervasive dubstep scene and an artist worthy of a mainstream audience.
