While Blakey’s still riding the hype waves around the world, back here in London someone else is giving him a run for his money on the glum post-dub scene. Of course, what with it being 2011, no one knows anything about said person apart from a vague location (South London) and an alias (Stubborn Heart).
‘Need Someone’, Stubborn Heart’s limited white label release, is half lovelorn warbling, half sanguine electro funk, merged together to form something a little schizophrenic but, ultimately, utterly gorgeous. If only they would reveal themselves, we could help them find the love they crave.
