No Pain In Pop

Sweat

We’ve been admirers of London’s anonymous Sbtrkt for a while now at No Pain In Pop and that love’s shared by the gaggle of labels - the best labels - hurling offers in his general direction. Confirmed releases come through Planet Mu, Salvia/XL, Brainmath and Universal soon enough, for now though the time’s right for a mix, all sun coloured synth swirls and dazed, reeling eyes, heat rashed and raw. “Seems there are quite a few producers using those UKG influences,” Sbtrkt noted recently, “taking the bounce, extra double-time rhythms and not being too dark & serious about everything.” His mix carries the work of Burial and Radiohead in a cluster of new Sbtrkt tracks, but things never get too dark, too serious - and if they do, MJ Cole’s always on hand to bail you out.
