they?? its one person just the singer, but im guessing by this that the producer of the tunes must be known as well then?

only standouts for me are 'the morning' and 'what you need' tbh. still good stuff though.
skream has been raving about this on his twitter, not surprised it snuck onto the show! collab could be massive... where you should be 2.0?

fractal turned me onto this maybe three days ago. I can't stop listening to this album.

at first I thought it was a woman singing.
still harboring my suspicions.
that probably explained my initial fascination with this.
it doesn't matter, I can't get enough of this.

The Morning has probably been one of my favourite tunes of the last month... sounds fucking great loud on a good system...album is good but probably only about 3 standout tracks for me. I still feel a bit cliche when I listen to sexy RnB with my girlfriend tho

What You Need is fucking good!!!! Catches the mood perfect.

The rest are a bit...meh...standard modern RnB content with a more electronicy backdrop. Needs more work imo.

Murkles - no cliché about it...lay that mood down fam!

'What you need' is definitely the standout.

Great tune.
