Lil Silva, real name TJ Carter, has always been inventive and evolving as a DJ and producer. He exploded onto the nascent UK Underground scene with "Seasons" in 2008, which evolved into the machine funk of Night Skanker for Night Slugs in 2010. By 2012's Patience EP on Good Years he started to discover a new tender future sound. Collaborating with Sampha, who he shares his endless new ideas and sketches, they produced "Salient Sarah." It gave him a newfound boldness to move things on.
