I couldn't put a name on any particular track, all I know is that by play through #3 I was mad familiar with these tracks like I'd had this album for months rather than just 6 hours. All the familiar Blake-isms and yet he's managed to switch up his sound a bit, I'm definitely gonna try and catch him live this summer when he next hits London.

I was lookin for this thread...

I love this nikka man. No fukking clue what he's talking about on "I Need a Forest Fire" but I been playing that shyt all day.

London like New York is a melting pot of influences - from hip hop, house, grime, to soca, garage, bass music, classical. Many artists are influenced by the cosmopolitan nature of the city but also it can be hectic and dreary at times. Artists like James Blake, Jamie XX, Burial really the light and the dark.

Yea but London dwarfs NYC talent wise. From MC's to Adele and Winehouse (RIP) James Blake to the XX to a million other artists. I seriously think London is the music mecca.

This was pretty nice. His albums are so immersive, I was listening to "I Need A Forest Fire" late at night and nearly jumped out of the bed @ 0:47, that shyt caught me off guard.

 

[Scruffy]

I'm really liking this more than that "Overgrown" album he did previously

It's a little more Melancholy than I expected, but that's London for you

uk love for the classics is what keeps them
solid foundation of soul and classic piff
if our own youth loved our greats as much as uk youngins did music would be better off

proper pop

It's insane how many truly dope artists come from London in all music genres. Real singers, real musicians. James Blake last album was dope af. Retrograde was straight fire/

What's happening in London is what happens when musicians care more about being musicians than they do about being famous.

 

[MerCrimmuh]

Bruh, ya'll are super slacking.

If I see another fukk acting like this doesn't exist I'm smacking you.

yeah and its crazy that london is like the most hyper gentrified, most expensive city in the whole world. worse than new york. probably the worst place for an artist to try to be. yet they stay putting out high quality artists
