10 years on: 7 artists tell us how Burial's 'Untrue' changed their lives
It's been a decade since the release of one of electronic music's most influential albums
Letta
I'd say it's my favourite electronic album of all time. If not my favourite album outright. It just meant a lot when it came out and I still listen to it all the time. I was all kinds of fucked up then. I'm pretty sure I was on all kinds of heroin. I feel like it was the real first time, in electronic music, something hit me on so many emotional levels. It was just so stark and extremely fucking sad, but it's also very warm and comforting. It's definitely got me through a lot of tough times.
I was also obsessed with London as a kid, so I think hearing 'Untrue' made me picture what I thought London would be like. Really grimy, dark skies in South London. It just made me feel a way other records haven't made me feel.
