James Blake Premieres New Album Playing Robots Into Heaven: Stream
The post James Blake Premieres New Album Playing Robots Into Heaven: Stream appeared first on Consequence.
James Blake has returned with his sixth studio album, Playing Robots Into Heaven. Stream it below.
After trying his hand at ambient music last year, Playing Robots Into Heaven is billed as Blake’s return to form, getting back into the sort of electronic music he introduced himself with on early EPs like The Bells Sketch and CMYK. The uptempo lead single, “Big Hammer,” is indicative of that, although with the confidence of having been in the game for over a decade now. It begins with a simple, ominous beat that swells into a trap-inspired banger, and arrives with a heist-themed music video directed by Oscar Hudson.
Blake’s international tour in support of the album begins at the Fabrique in Milan on September 18th. The trek also includes a hometown show in London at Alexandra Palace on September 28th, before wrapping up in Los Angeles on October 20th. Tickets are available here.
Blake’s last studio album was 2021’s Friends That Break Your Heart.
