Burial is a dubset producer from the United Kingdon, London to be more precise. There’s really not much I can say about this geezer, mainly because he remained anonymous until August 2008 (most people thought he was Norman Cook aka Fatboy Slim), before that only five people really knew he made music, but oh how he makes music.

His debut self-titled album met a lot of critical acclaim with many ranking it in their top albums of 2006. It’s a dark, eye opening plunge into the underworld of London which millions can relate to. It’s a very unique album, described by many as like taking the night bus around London. However in my opinion Untrue takes it a step further, with more hypnotic/ghostly samples and beautifully crafted drum patterns. Once you start this album, you will not stop listening till it’s over, it’s just that good. I really wish I knew more about this guy and the way he makes his music. This album is an emotional marvel, you can shut yourself away from the world and take in every tiny sound that appears in the 50 minutes of this masterpiece.

First time listening to this is a true experience. Amazon had been bugging me to buy this album for a long time, constantly recommending it to me, and I finally caved into the pressure and bought it. I wish I could go back and listen to it for the first time again, and be blown away by the epic production, the echoing vocal samples, there is an established sense of semi-consciousness and loneliness that you can’t help but sympathise with throughout, and it just makes you want more.

Favourite tracks: EVERY SINGLE MINUTE OF IT.

I look forward to his ever delayed next release DJ Kicks which I will be sure to review as soon as I hear it.
