Sampha and Little Simz have come together on new single ‘Satellite Business 2.0’ – a brand new, fully-realised version of the ‘Satellite Business’ interlude from Sampha’s latest album LAHAI.
Little Simz first heard the song live during Sampha’s run of ‘Satellite Business’ residency shows in 2023 at Brooklyn’s Pioneer Works, she witnessed the song evolving and expanding while Sampha and his band experimented in the round during a series of intimate, rapturously-received events. She later joined Sampha on stage in April this year for a version of the song at his now-legendary sold out, hometown show at London’s Alexandra Palace, a show that also featured Ghetts, Lil Silva, Jessie Ware and Kokoroko’s Sheila Maurice-Grey.
A very limited edition 12” vinyl version of the track was also made available to pre-order for just 72 hours via Sampha and Young‘s webstores (closing midnight AEST, Friday 19th July).
Following a transcendent performance at Glastonbury, Sampha recently appeared on BBC 6 Music live from the station’s Maida Vale studios, performing tracks from LAHAI and his debut album, Process, alongside an extended interview. Listen back here.
