    Righton, has announced his 2nd album JIM, I'M STILL HERE made in collaboration with Soulwax, due for release on their label DEEWEE on July 8th 2022. Listen to the first single 'Pause' here and pre-oder the album on vinyl or CD: jamesrighton.l...
    After coming to prominence as the frontman of the Mercury Prize-winning Klaxons, recording with Arctic Monkeys, and crafting his Shock Machine project, James Righton released his debut solo album ‘The Performer’ on March 20th, 2020.
    Visually, the project finds Righton playing up the role of ‘The Performer’ as depicted in the title track’s video. Filmed by Hugo Campan at DEEWEE, it’s a stylized take on perennial glamour - Righton’s charismatic performance matched by his classic white Gucci suit and an array of vintage equipment. It will also form the basis for the stage set for his upcoming shows in support of the album.
    “I was really interested in the idea of using a live performance as the basis for a music video,” explains Hugo. “We even recorded James’ performance of the song to use to make it as close as possible to his live show. I wanted the video to delve into what music is at its most existential point: a human performance and a live experience. James is a great showman. He has so much energy, attitude and style. We filmed 43 consecutive takes to create something unique, and by the end of the process it drifted into a kind of abstract, surreal MTV performance.”
    Directed & Edited by Hugo Campan
    Lighting by Jonas Weyn
    Coordination by Karey Fisher and Douglas J Mackinlay
    Set Design by Phil Evans and Chris Walker
    Additional Filming by Vincent Lynen
    Art Direction by Ill-Studio

      100% YOTA released a single that sounds a little like the Klaxons last album, without the spiritual kick or as much voice power, and it made me sad. Seems like those two were the sauce, James & Jamie.

    The melody is almost a note for note rip off of Foreigner's song 'Cold as Ice'. They should sue.

      You don't know the difference between a melody and a riff. The melody is NOTHING like "Cold as Ice" and the riff only has a passing similarity.
