Video: James Blake – “Overgrown”

Nabil Elderkin, whose video work has been featured on this site for both Bon Iver and Frank Ocean videos has shot the latest set of visuals for James Blake's  exceptional opening track off  his latest LP of the same name, "Overgrown.” I've been pretty obsessed with this track and album in general for the last week so it was great to get this new video that see’s James walking though forest and hills haunted by shadowy cloaked figures.

Listen: James Blake - "Digital Lion"

Well look at that, not even a full 24 hours pass and we have yet another new James Blake tune to share. After hearing the radio rip of the dub version of “Voyeur,” we get “Digital Lion,” a tune that features Brian Eno. So far the three songs we have heard from the forthcoming L,P entitled Overgrown, are quite different from each other but all still uniquely James Blake. This one being the most chaotic of the three with its rapid fire pitter patter drums.

Some new music from James Blake comes courtesy  of DJ Benji B. “Voyeur” is actually the dub version of a cut that will appear on his new LP, Overgrown, which drops April 8^th. The tune starts with those signature emotive vocal loops and synths but then things quickly go into overdrive in the best way possible, check it below…

Video: James Blake – “Retrograde”

Only a day or two after releasing a stream of his new single, “Retrograde” James Blake drops the music video of the noteworthy tune. Director Martin de Thurah,who also helmed the St. Vincent and David Byrnes video for “Who” and Feist’s “Anti-Pioneer”, provides the equally memorable video.

Listen: James Blake – “Retrograde”

After some time away from the spotlight James Blake made his return today with the premiere of his new single “Retrograde”. The song is set to appear on Blake’s forthcoming LP, Overgrown, out on April 8th. Always the master of negative space James cleverly builds “Retrograde” up from a melody he coo’s during the opening bars, building his beat up around it and throwing down some appropriately soft vocals to bring it all together.
