James Blake Continues BBC Radio 1 Residency, Plays New Remix of "Not Long Now"

Tonight James Blake opened the latest installment of his BBC Radio 1 Residency with a fake weather forecast that predicted, among other things, “acid-house gales” at “rave-o’clock”. Later, he played Prince, D’Angelo, Arca, Arthur Russell, and Kate Bush, in addition to a new Klaus remix of his own song, “Not Long Now” from 2011′s Enough Thunder EP. He also played his recent single, “Building It Still”, which was debuted on the last installment.

During the broadcast, there was a fake commercial for something called “Rave-ageddon” that spoke forebodingly of “365 days of Rave”.
