James Blake with new music video, new EP

Is this a case of a borderline music video? James Blake‘s current single ‘A Case of You’ (a cover version of Joni Mitchell‘s 1971 original) just received a new vid, starring British actress Rebecca Hall, and moods are swinging.

Daylight comes, smiling faces, night time comes, tears roll. It’s a strange music video which the dubstep / pop producer Blake is showing alongside his minimalist interpretation, taken from his Enough Thunder EP.

And while two thirds of the EB office can’t stand Blake’s whiny vocals anymore, the young shot just proved the opposite with his most recent 12″ EP on R&S records. Love What Happened Here comes with three new tracks that work mostly without vocals but focussing again on more abstract rhythms and electronica.
