Baker's Dozen

Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

2. BurialBurial

The Burial album has a very similar effect as What’s Going On for me, although of course it landed in my life at a very different time. It has the same effect in that it goes in and it provokes something inside, on a deeper level. I tag it up against Marvin Gaye, because to me, of this era, it’s an album that has a similar cinematography to it – a sonic cinematography.
