SBTRKT

Dubstep
Dubstep

SBTRKT is a Dubstep act. Their sound grew out of Kilo Kish and Sampha. Those roots explain a lot about how SBTRKT arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Joy Orbison, James Blake, Mount Kimbie, Caribou and Lapalux, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Modeselektor, Underworld, Mark Ronson, Basement Jaxx and Mura Masa, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 23 connections around SBTRKT, reaching back through Kilo Kish and forward to Modeselektor.
