James Blake – At Birth

The James Blake train keeps rolling, after a 2011 that’s included an LP and an EP, J. Blake intends to release a second ’11 EP in December called “Love What Happened Here”. “At Birth”, which is excerpted from the EP, brings some of that James Blake 1-2 back that was missing on the “Enough Thunder” EP. Expect the usual J.B. vocal cuts, piano jabs, and rhythmic multilayers with a touch darker edge.
