James Blake has released his second single of the year ‘Like The End’, a melodically haunting track filled with eerie samples and smoky atmospherics. James Blake is known for his soulful vocals and by pairing them with twinkling tones, soft drums, and the atmospherics, he’s created a cinematic single that really highlights the feeling many of us will be having about the world at large right now.
With every listen, ‘Like The End’ feels like you’re falling into a warped world. The tones open the track with James Blake’s gentle vocals and things feel sweet and simple but by the end, the sweetness is gone and warped synths make you feel like you’re falling into some kind of hypnosis or psychosis. As always, James Blake’s delivered a powerful single, but this one will definitely make you think long after you’ve listened to it.
