Tricky has unveiled the name and tracklisting of his upcoming ninth studio album.

The follow-up to 2008's Knowle West Boy is titled Mixed Race and will be released through Domino Records on September 27.

Mixed Race was recorded in Paris and features contributions from Franky Riley, Terry Lynn, Bobby Gillespie, Hakim Hamadouche, Blackman and Marlon Thaws.

Tricky said: "Every album is a learning experience and this is concentrated music, there's no dilution. I'm comfortable in my own skin now, comfortable with being in the light.

"I'm not just a kid from Knowle West trying to build a future, I have some experience, I can experiment, I can be honest, and honestly, musically, I can't be touched. I used to hide in the shadows when I played live, now I perform.

"I used to hate doing interviews, now I feel honoured that people would be interested in what I have to say. I've spent my life going between cultures; Mixed Race is about that, and in a very direct way."

The full tracklisting is as follows:
1. 'Every Day'
2. 'Kingston Logic'
3. 'Early Bird'
4. 'Ghetto Stars'
5. 'Hakim'
6. 'Come To Me'
7. 'Murder Weapon'
8. 'Time To Dance'
9. 'Really Real'
10. 'Bristol To London'
