oh man i love the minimal stuff. klavierwerke is my favourite james blake ep. also i dunno if i would be so quick to sell him short on the technicality, the way he manipulates his samples (esp the vocals) is just...i dont eve nknow. i mean even his more "traditional" stuff (the bells sketch is my fave example), there's a lot going on there. he's such a fresh voice, the way i think of it is like...if burial was r&b influenced dubstep, james blake is dubstep influenced r&b. i just come away from his shit like man, this is 21st century soul music.
