  • James Blake will DJ in Paris on November 17th. The London-based artist has steadily risen in popularity since 2010, culminating in the release of his debut album last year. Combining dubstep and minimal electronics with pop-leaning, singer-songwriter fare, the self-titled album was well-received in many circles, including the (relatively) mainstream pop realm. In the wake of that LP, Blake has toured extensively with a live, full-band setup, with DJ dates few and far between for the most part. The clubbier side of his sound—showcased on past EPs for R&S, Hessle Audio and others—will come out once again when he headlines a party at Social Club. He'll play alongside some of his R&S label-mates, The Chain .
