If you haven't seen it already, 22-year old producer James Blake has a new video up on the web of his Feist cover "Limit To Your Love." Whether you enjoy his music or not, it is hard to believe that someone this young can make music so detailed and complex. He has been absorbing musical knowledge from years of piano lessons and from studying contemporary music at Blur's alma mater Goldsmith College, leading him to subtly rise faster than you can say Intelligent Dance Music. Watch his new video below.
To further try and convince you that he has sky high potential, here is his track "Footnotes" from his CMYK ep. This track is one of the most original electronic songs I've heard in a while. He has a very unique skill of creating empty space in his songs that work magically. This tune sounds like a melancholy love song sung by an android programmed with some deep human emotions. Didn't know indie darlings could be boys! Enjoy
