=== ''ISAM'' and Two Fingers (2009β2018) === In 2006, Tobin began collaborating on a hip-hop oriented project with British drum-and-bass producer [[Doubleclick (artist)|Doubleclick]] and a number of guest vocalists. As Two Fingers, the pair have released several singles,<ref name=inthemix /> followed by their self-titled debut album in 2009. The eponymous release came out in 2009 on [[Paper Bag Records]] in North America and [[Big Dada]] in the [[United Kingdom]]. The two producers, who first met when Tobin was living in Brighton, U.K., got together in Montreal in 2007 over a series of tracks that were partially an extension of their previous collaborations β exemplified by the dense, pummeling 2003 track "Ownage" β but in general, a fundamentally new and dynamic direction incorporating visceral elements of dancehall, dubstep, and grime. Following the singles "That Girl" and "What You Know," the group's self-titled debut was released in spring 2009, featuring vocals from dancehall star Ce'Cile, Ms. Jade, and, on seven of the album's 12 tracks, British rapper Sway. In 2009, Tobin also collaborated with the UK drum-and-bass artist [[Dom & Roland]] on a track titled βSyloβ for the album ''No Strings Attached''. In 2008, Tobin announced he was working on a new video game soundtrack for an "undisclosed PS3 title". This was later revealed to be the PlayStation 3 exclusive game, ''[[inFamous]]'', and in 2010, Tobin announced that he would be working on the music for ''[[Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction]]''. Recent works include "Hey Mr. Tree" as a 'Bonus Joint' to accompany his earlier 'Monthly Joint' collection, a remix of [[Noisia]]'s "Machine Gun" released alongside remixes by 16 Bit and Spor, and a collaboration with ESKMO dubbed Eskamon. Eskamon has released a single "Fine Objects". In January 2011, his artist page was updated on [[Ninja Tune]] website, announcing a new album entitled ''[[ISAM (album)|ISAM]]'', as well as a ''Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory'' remix album. After being leaked by a journalist, ''ISAM'' was released on April 20, 2011. As its extension, in May 2012, Tobin released the ''[[Boxset (Amon Tobin album)|Boxset]]'', prominent of its form of a mechanical press. As a set of 15 different physical carriers, it contains remixes, cover versions and re-interpretations of tracks from ''ISAM'', along with Tobin's earliest audio experiments, film and television scores, as well as deleted bootlegs. The second album under Two Fingers, ''Stunt Rhythms'', was a solo effort by Amon Tobin and was designed by Inventory Studio and released worldwide by [[Big Dada]] Recordings in 2012. On April 18, 2015, Amon Tobin announced ''[[Dark Jovian]],'' an EP, and his first release under his name in four years.
