Listen: Sampha – Without

Frequent collaborator turns solo...

Sampha has a posted new track 'Without' online – check it out below.

Sampha perhaps almost best known through collaboration, through his association with other artists. Yet perhaps that's not too surprising, especially when his smooth-like-butter tones are half-inched for use by the likes of Jessie Ware and Drake.

Focussing on his own career, the London based artist is set to release a new EP this summer. Ahead of this, Sampha has decided to post brand new track 'Without' online.

The production is rooted in R&B, but there's a soft house edge to proceedings which results in a curiously British mixture. Sampha's voice is – as ever – impeccable, and there's a fractured edge which really pulls you in.

An almost perfectly formed, hopelessly emotive tale, 'Without' has got Clash very excited indeed.

Listen to it below.
