Emerging from Camden’s 70’s squat-scene, Scritti Politti combined punk’s raw energy and experimental gritty sounds with impenetrably obscure lyrics wrapped in Marxist ideology. Founder Green Gartside retreated to the studio in 1980 and though live appearances were rare, his curiosity and experimentation led to four critically acclaimed albums recorded over seventeen years spanning synthetic soul-pop, synth funk, reggae and hip hop.
