He is the great digital troubadour of our time. The Londoner James Blake has outlined his own language, brimming with sensuality, sensitivity and delicacy, based on electronic r'n'b, freeze-dried soul and fractured hip hop.
"Playing Robots Into Heaven" (2023), the sixth album in the career of the British James Blake, is the perfect excuse for his visit to Noches del Botánico, is a new sample that no one like him dominates in such an overwhelming way the digital interiorism in a pop context. More electronic, more danceable and more aware than ever of the essential role his music plays in the British post dubstep scene - that is, almost everything that has been projected from there in the last decade in the field of electronic pop -, this is a sort of creative renaissance, inspired by his younger years but without sterile nostalgia or immobilism. Taking a step backwards and then taking two steps forward. A new display of genius in the career of a musician whose chapter of collaborations already speaks for itself of its capital importance: Rosalía, Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, Frank Ocean or SZA. And with a magnetic live performance.
Whoever hears GAZZI blindly for the first time will think that he probably comes from a garage in the UK. But you will be surprised to know that Pablo Jiménez is an emerging national talent from Linares, Jaén. With Burial or Four Tet as references and influences taken directly from the dancefloor; post-dubstep, UK bass, deep house, dembow and breakbeat reign in the creations of the Andalusian in the two albums, four EPs and six singles he has released so far in his dazzling and intense musical career. He moved to Madrid and from there he is firing hits like his recently released EP CUTE. He has moved his talent to dance floors as recognized as Nitsa or Razzmatazz and has toured essential festivals such as Primavera Sound, Sónar, Bilbao BBK Live or CalaMijas; between dates he has provided the soundtrack to the afterparty of the Dior fashion show in Seville and edited the Despechá of Rosalía, Charli XCX, Taylor Swift or Drake.
