I was having a discussion on Twitter a few days ago about the state of dubstep and the scarcity of consistent artists. Electronic music is a funny business. And it seems anyone can luck up on a blippity hit. But what does the future hold for dubstep? James Blake’s genius cover of Feist – Limit To Your Love is one example.

James Blake is banking on a type of dubstep fusion, if you will. Well-sung soul lyrics that are often chopped up and scattered over a staccato dubstep beat.

Could be the future of pop music. Or could be a fluke. Either way, you’ll be hearing lot about James Blake in 2011. Check out the James Blake album sampler on YouTube. Debut album on eMusic and Amazon MP3.

Like a shotgun
needs an outcome
I’m your prostitute
You gon’ get some

Well, damn.

Lykke Li, that Swedish, alternative upstart, returns with “Get Some”, the catchy first single from her sophomore album Wounded Rhymes. I’m getting a strong Annabella Lwin/Bow Wow Wow vibe from this (Oops. I’m dating myself).

You should probably be dancing to “Get Some” already. If the original version doesn’t move you, the song has been remixed by Beck and Mike D.

I’m very excited, nervous, eager, anxious but chuffed to announce my new album! It’s taken a while and it knocked me for six when writing it. It’s different from 19, it’s about the same things but in a different light. I deal with things differently now. I’m more patient, more honest, more forgiving and more aware of my own flaws, habits and principles. Something that comes with age I think. So fittingly this record is called 21.

If the rest of the album is anything like first single “Rolling In The Deep” (or her fantastic debut 19) we are in for a huge treat.

There will be plenty of write ups on Jimi Hendrix today. and with good reason; we lost a legend 40 years ago under mysterious circumstances.

The Montreal Gazette has a list of 10 essential Jimi Hendrix recordings you might play to celebrate his life. But this is one of my favorites.
