It would also follow a string of releases outside Kode9’s Hyperdub label, where he had been releasing music for nearly two decades.While associated with Hyperdub, Burial released his acclaimed second studio album ‘Untrue’ in 2007 – an LP which earned him a Mercury Prize nomination.

More recently, he worked with Radiohead’s Thom Yorke and Four Tet for the collaborative track ‘Her Revolution’, which was released via XL back in 2020.His latest work arrived last summer, when Burial joined forces with Kode9 on a surprise track via Fabric Originals titled ‘Infirmary/Unknown Summer’.
