James Blake reveals album details
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 19 November 2010
Electronic producer James Blake has revealed that his debut album will be released on 7 Feb and “probably” have an eponymous title. It will be released through Blake’s own Atlas Records label, which is backed by Universal.
Blake said that the album was written while he was at university, telling the NME: “[These are] the first songs I’ve really written … you can probably tell when I wrote them by the sounds. Especially how I treat my vocals – the way they’re produced is quite unique”.
He added that he’s also preparing to tour in support of the album: “We’ve done trial runs and it’s going great. I’m rehearsing with a proper band – we’re going to be playing 100% live”.
