But what James realized is that less is more, because musical breaks are much more meaningful than “overdone” arrangements. Miles Davis recognized this decades ago! James Blake is a British-born producer and songwriter who has been known for his emotional depth and innovative sound since the early 2010s. His style combines dubstep, soul, R&B, classical and experimental pop - sometimes minimalist, sometimes orchestral, but always with an unmistakable, melancholy voice. His self-titled debut album was released in 2011 and was celebrated by critics. Songs such as “Limit to Your Love” (a cover of Feist) and “The Wilhelm Scream” made him famous worldwide. Later albums show his development as a producer, including collaborations with artists such as Beyoncé, Frank Ocean, Rosalía and Kendrick Lamar.
