Playing Robots Into Heaven

by James Blake

Pivoting away from the vocal-centric alternative R&B of his recent commercial successes, 'Playing Robots Into Heaven' returns heavily to the producer's early roots in experimental UK club culture. The tracks prioritize intricate, syncopated bass rhythms, heavily manipulated vocal samples, and cold, futuristic synthesizer textures. It operates as a distinct homage to dubstep and subterranean dance floors.
