Blood Orange performing "Champagne Coast" on KCRW

Dev Hynes may moonlight as a songwriter for artists like Florence and the Machine and The Chemical Brothers, but we venture into his solo work as Blood Orange when he drops by our studios. It's a soulful melange of pop experimentalism. Hear it on Morning Becomes Eclectic. Watch / Listen to the full session here: www.kcrw.com/music/programs/mb...

What you want, wants you back, if you just step back and let it come.

[@joolenka]

He makes beautiful music and unique melodies. To anyone complaining about his voice not being perfect enough or his playing not being perfect enough, that's exactly what makes him so appealing. His imperfections. It's what makes him human, what makes his music so heartfelt, and it reminds us that we're human when listening to it.

[@hunterkubat4805]

joolenka imperfections? This man is demi god

[@KamilaShakur]

+joolenka exactly. I don't mind his voice at all, that's how well he does with the composition of the track, it's really enjoyable even without perfect vocals.

[@user-ic3vm3kt4j]

joolenka I feel the exact same !!!!!!!

[@kristiparsons8956]

You said it perfectly. And I love his voice and I love how brilliant his music is. It's so refreshing to find a sound that hasn't been created before. What a treasure.

[@vicshrily]

PERFECTion!!.. is all I hear!! -voice & ALL!!!!!!!!
