With a grand piano being the sole instrument of choice, this John Legend-esque riff will pleasure the ears almost immediately. The fact is, you won't necessarily realize it's from someone who is in the likes of SBTRKT, up until the vocal comes shooting in.It really is a sensational piece of music, the whole way through. The piano sweeps across the entirety of the song, as well as blending beautifully with his very distinct, and very uncommon vocal. He manages, whilst being particularly unorthodox, a truly mesmerising way of singing to the audience. It's as though he really does have someone special in mind throughout it all and, whilst it is seemingly more produced than that of John Legend's All Of Me (we mean due to the fact that there is much more in the way of backing vocals), there is still a lot of sentiment throughout and, that sort of showmanship is something that can't really be taught.
Sampha is someone who we would very much like to hear more from. His work with SBTRKT is something that, whilst we admire, we don't necessarily listen to all that often, and, his solo work, in our ears, is much more appetising and something we could most definitely get used to.
