Sampha has shared his first solo single in six years, “Spirit 2.0.” He made the song with Yussef Dayes, El Guincho, and Owen Pallet, with vocals from Yaeji and Ibeyi’s Lisa-Kaindé Diaz. Listen below.
Sampha has not yet followed-up his 2017 debut, Process, although his distinctive vocals have featured on a number of tracks since then. He recently previewed “Spirit 2.0” during shows in New York and London.
“It’s about the importance of connection to both myself and others, and the beauty and harsh realities of just existing,” Sampha said of “Spirit 2.0” in a press release. “It’s about acknowledging those moments when you need help—that requires real strength. I hope people can enjoy that feeling of someone being there for you, even if that person doesn’t have the answers. Just calling someone up without overthinking… letting go and just dancing… wanting to see past the mundanity of things and appreciating the magic of it all, from birds nests to spaceships.”
