Last month, James Blake launched his BBC Radio 1 residency with a two-hour block of loosely mixed records and material from his 1-800-Dinosaur crew. Highlights included a handful of edits from Blake’s Harmonimix alias, appearances by Airhead and Trim, and a Burial ‘interview’ that shows what a standup comedian Blake is underneath all that emoting. The whole thing’s actually quite amusing, from the pitch-shifted modem that sets the episode off to the way Blake takes the piss out of his own new track, “40455.”
Have at it via Soundcloud below, and look out for the singer/producer’s next Radio 1 installment on February 20th…
