Lying somewhere between the glitchy post trip hop of James Blake and the majestic nu soul of up and coming young prodigies Sam Smith and John Newman, Leon Else's debut single "Protocol" is a stunning new addition to our impressive UK male vocalist rosta. A warm electro pulse gives plenty of leeway for Leon's spectacular voice to show off its gritty soulful lows and emotionally raw highs.
Thanks to Tasha at House of 27 for introducing us to this guy. No release date as of yet, but expect this to be all over Radio 1 once they finally decide to let 2013 rest.
FOR FANS OF: Sam Smith, James Blake, John Newman
The Orikami remix gives a slightly more ravey interpretation.
