'Trick' is Bloc Party frontman Kele’s second solo album, following the sterling debut ‘The Boxer’. On ‘Trick’ he travels further down the rabbit hole, but makes something darker and more sensual in the process. This time round, proceedings take on a distinctly libidinous, downcast feel, the air thick with possibility and tension. Honed by periods of weekly DJ sets, not to mention stints producing his own electronic music, 'Trick' is a different, sleeker beast than “The Boxer”, with a newfound emphasis on Okereke’s soulful vocals, which grew and changed during the course of recording the album in London and New York. Framing Okereke’s intensely personal songwriting within the context of dance culture, “Trick” is a record which boldly stands at the crossroads of club history, old school soul and modern electronic R&B, with a distinctively British twist.
