You’ll be relieved to know that FTSE doesn’t focus his productions around stock-rates, brokers or investment banking lingo. Instead he roots his works around basic human emotions. The latest ‘Tidal Wave’ track with Saint Saviour speaks of “waking up preoccupied / sour-faced and weary-eyed.”

The real game-changer occurred when a couple of months post-uploading track after track of instrumental experimentalism, FTSE started singing. He’s been keeping that one close to his chest, but similar to when Disclosure revealed themselves to be talented at basically everything by waxing lyrical on ‘F For You’, FTSE’s anything but a one-trick pony. Invest your funds in this guy, if you have any semblance of sense left post-recession.

The ‘FTSE 1 EP’ is out from 1st July on Lucky Number.
