The young London crooner James Blake is back! Before his R&B hits made the world crazy, he crafted some of the most unique post - dubstep productions. Starting with early work on Hessle Audio, Hemlock, and R&S, his cult following grew through a series of great EPs and singles. These combined soulful UK - style keys with odd beats, often without his vocals. We love his singing, but it's super exciting to hear him return to his roots on 200 Press, released on his own label 1 - 800 Dinosaur in 2014. It seems he's catering to both new fans and die - hards. This four - track EP is spread across a 12' vinyl and a bonus 7'. Standout tracks include '200 Press', reminiscent of his 'Harmonomix' alias, and 'Build It Still', with his signature piano and sparse programming that's beautifully haunting.

Using this James Blake vinyl is easy. Just place it on your record player, gently drop the needle, and enjoy the music. When handling the vinyl, make sure your hands are clean to avoid getting dirt on the record, which could affect the sound quality. Store the vinyl in a cool, dry place and keep it in its sleeve when not in use to prevent scratches. If you notice any dust on the vinyl, use a soft record brush to clean it before playing.
