Fantastic Mr Fox

Stephen Gomberg went on the xx's American tour and has been heralded by minimal dubstep maestro James Blake as "the future of everything." Hype can be a terrible thing but Fantastic Mr Fox's tunes don't disappoint, they're incredibly layered tracks made up of textured samples, simple synths, distorted vocals, drawn out breaks and the occasional 8-bit barrage. He's supporting Mosca and Krystal Klear at Life on the 13th of May which is shaping up to the be a must reach. Below's his track Sketches, a masterpiece of epileptic bleeps and tilting breaks, SBTRKT's remix is well worth checking out too.
