BBC Sound of 2014 finalist Sampha has re-released an EP featuring some of his early recordings in aid of charity. Check it out below.

The velvet-voiced singer and producer originally released the Sundanza EP in 2010 via label Young Turks, but has now shared the collection again in aid of the Youth Cancer Trust. Despite being old material, it's still excellent, brilliantly showcasing the South London musician's talents as a producer as well as a vocalist. 

Listen to the Sundanza EP below:

Sundanza has certainly stoked our appetite for a full length album from Sampha even more. The musician, who originally found fame in 2011 when he appeared on electronic musician's SBTRKT's self-titled debut, had a big 2013, releasing his second EP dual in July before appearing on Drake's album Nothing Was The Same.  A brief but important cameo on Beyonce's massive self-titled record then followed, before he topped off the year by finishing fourth on BBC's Sound of 2014 countdown.
