SBTRKT - Ride To Freedom (XL)
4/5
By: Stan Morgan
Now that every song ever created seems to get posted on some blog or another, ready to be devoured by the blood hungry internet dogs, the days of artists getting away with a dodgy throw-away B-Side are over. New track ‘Ride To Freedom’ has been chosen by SBTRKT to accompany the release of single ‘Hold On’, taken from his Rockfeedback-approved debut album, and it’s more than enough to keep the wolves from tearing him apart this time.
The track is almost entirely instrumental, unlike the majority of his album, therefore attracting more attention to his superb production skills as he plays with his trademark drum patterns and dizzying synth lines that give you something new to train your ear on with every repeat. The feel of the track makes ‘Ride To Freedom’ sit very comfortably alongside those from his debut, and maybe shouldn’t be seen as an indication of the direction SBTRKT might take in the future, but for a track used to prop up the release of a single it’s not half bad.
