James Blake – “Retrograde”
Any time an artist comes along that defines a sound so distinctly inimitable, it is an exciting moment. Even more exciting is watching an artist follow up an excellent debut album and EP with an avoidance of any sort of sophomore slump. The album is still a couple months away - Overgrown will be dropping April 8 - but BBC’s Zane Lowe says it best: “we really missed the kind of music that you make.” Welcome back, James.
