Bought most of his releases a few weeks ago and now i'm having to try really hard to play no more than one or two of his tracks in a set!

This guy is really pushing bounderies in electronic music!

If you havent heard his interview and new tracks on Gilles Peterson's Radio1 Show onTues 18th May, I suggest you take a listen. Such a humble guy with great talent and aspirations. Beautiful music!!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00scy17

Also, if you like James Blake / Mount Kimbie, you may enjoy the productions of a Southampton based beatmaker Gang Colours, one of his tunes was played before CMYK on the Gilles show above, and on Gilles Guru Memorial Show. Heres a soundcloud link, with a lovely comment from the Blake himself.

I think I pm'ed him on Soundcloud a while back but never heard a response since, but that theory might also work too.
