James Blake The Colour in Anything

Unfortunately James Blake recently ended his residency on BBC Radio 1, but he ended his stay with a tease of what’s to come. Fans have been eager to hear new music from Blake or any information at all about his forthcoming album—considering that it is one of the most anticipated albums of 2015. During his last radio show, Blake finally revealed what he plans to title his next album.

Thankfully for those of us who may have missed the original broadcast, the whole show is now up on soundcloud. The soundcloud description hinted at the surprised hidden within this particular radio show by saying, “buried away towards the end of the show (1hr37-ish) is information on the title of James’ forthcoming LP…” Towards the end of his final show, James Blake finally announced that his next album will be titled “Radio Silence.” Now that we officially have an album title, we just have to wait patiently for a release date.

Esquire conducted an interview with James regarding his third album, and he revealed that he's working with both Kanye and Bon Iver.

"Kanye - I’m with him today. We'd already started on something... today we should nail something down. If it doesn’t end up on the album you know it hasn’t worked."

Unfortunately, James has yet to mention when we can expect the album.

On April 14, 2016, Blake revealed during a surprise hosting spot on BBC Radio 1 that he'd finished the album, and that it was 18 tracks in length. He stated that it includes one that stretches to 20 minutes in length.

According to music blogger Josep Vinaixa, Blake's new album, scheduled to be released sometime this year via Polydor and Republic Records, was renamed to "The Colour in Anything", as hinted by social media posts by Blake and his label, 1-800 Dinosaur, of photos of a mural by children's novel illustrator Sir Quentin Blake (best known for his work with writer Roald Dahl) that hinted at the new album title, which was confirmed as the title of his new album on May 2nd.
