Today’s catch comes from the one and only James Blake. The Mercury Music Prize and GRAMMY Award-winning singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer has released a new single entitled “Loading”. This is the second single from Blake’s highly anticipated sixth studio album, Playing Robots Into Heaven, which will be released on September 8th, and it’s another triumph. It definitely looks as though he is creeping into his early days with the dance vibe, but the soulful elements are all JB throughout his career. From his press release…
“Highlighting the intricacies and nuances of James’ signature style, “Loading” represents yet another artistic leap forward with its immersive production and irresistible refrain. Playing Robots Into Heaven follows the critically acclaimed Friends That Break Your Heart – James’ highest charting album in the UK to date – and will see James once again return to the electronic roots of his Hessle, Hemlock and R&S records days. It will also nod to his latest creation, the CMYK event series with Ronda INTL which kicked off in LA last March and arrived in London earlier this month. All the CMYK events over the past year have sold out within minutes and have featured appearances from special guests including The Ragga Twins, Steve Lacy, Channel Tres, HAii and more.”
