    Honestly, no matter how hard I tried or how many times I listened to it, I just couldn't get into this album. That's not to say I did not enjoy parts of it. I loved the track "Plastic 100°C" and I absolutely adored "(No One Knows Me) Like the Piano", it's such a soulful and gorgeous song. The rest of the album, while enjoyable, like Kora Sings, I just did not really like.

    Process seems unlikely to make Sampha a household name in his own right. Yet it has a drama and intensity that should increase his influence on those who already are.

    His voice is an art form in itself, breathy and warm and aching with impartial soul. The track’s arrangements are stunning, from the sparse opener Plastic 100°C to the propulsive beat of Blood On Me, while the devastatingly beautiful, reflective piano ballad of (No One Knows Me) Like The Piano would stop the coldest of hearts.

    Process is a moving, musical autobiography of futuristic, soulful electronica and brittle r’n’b.
