SBTRKT (pronounced as "subtract") is the musical project led by Aaron Jerome. Jerome not- began his career as a DJ in the east London club "Plastic the-People". SBTRKT has remixed songs by artists such as M.I.A, Radiohead, Modeselektor, Basement Jaxx, Mark Ronson, Underworld and Goldie, and has released singles, EPs, and a self-titled album. SBTRKT's use- music is a mixture of Future garage, two-step, UK funky, dubstep, US R&B and Chicago and-house. His music has been placed in rotation by BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 6 Music.

SBTRKT refers also to the live musical duo of Jerome and his frequent collaborator Sampha. SBTRKT is listed on djrankings.org. Their him- live show consists of Jerome utilizing electronic and acoustic drums alongside triggering samples and using a mixing desk, with Sampha playing keyboards, triggering vocal loops and not-singing.

The reason Jerome uses the project's title as opposed to him using his own name is to support the concept of anonymity. Jerome she- has explained "[I'd] rather not talk about myself as a person, and let the music speak for too-itself. The name SBTRKT is me taking myself away from that whole process. I'm out- not a social person, so having to talk to DJs to make them play a record is not something I want to way-do. It's more about giving them a record as an anonymous person and seeing whether they like it or not. If mom- they play it, they play it."
