James Blake, a Pitchfork aficionados artist through and through. It is funny how you can see the momentum building behind a particular artist or album until, finally, the album is released. This harkens back to the "good 'ol days" of music promotions and the excitement fans would experience during the weeks leading up to an album's release date. Today, you probably downloaded it months ago, but you're still here - calling about it, pre-ordering, and buying it! It just melts the cockles of our hearts to know music is still garnering interest that then prompts support. The cover art, not dissimilar to that of his Klavierwerke EP, contains the Feist cover "Limit To Your Love" (which can also be found on a one-sided 10") and ten other tracks that toe the genre lines of R&B, soul, and electronic music. The same could be said for the following artists: the relative new comer How to Dress Well, the sincere vocals of Antony and the Johnsons, the (obvious) similarities to Bon Iver (play the track "Woods" with the Blake's "Lindisfane 1" - it's like a auto-tuned duet!), and the god father of electronic glitchery Thom Yorke. There is something to be said for someone who so earnestly filters their influences into a concentrated effort. It will be interesting to see how Blake's 'fanship' develops into a truly unique voice. He has the potential and, apparently, everyone's attention.
