James Blake – “Voyeur (Dub)”

James Blake

British electronic pop time-bender James Blake is about a month away from releasing his new album Overgrown, and the first single “Retrograde” is enough to give me high hopes for it. And now he’s shared a version of “Voyeur,” one of the album’s other tracks. This is the “dub” version, though, so it presumably won’t show up in this form on Overgrown. The track is dance music, of a sort, and it walks the line between the layered-up head-trips of Blake’s early days and the club bangers that presumably inspired him. BBC Radio DJ Benji B recently played the dub, and you can hear a radio rip below.

Overgrown is out 4/8 on Atlas/Repubic, and Blake intends to release the dub on his own 1-800-DINOSAUR label.
