As a 22-year-old in early 2011, James Blake became a cult hero in indie and electronic circles thanks to his eponymous, virtuosic and genre-bending debut album. He was a producer at the bleeding edge of syncopated electronic music who also happened to be a classically trained pianist with the voice of a choir lead. Two years later with the release of sophomore effort \u201cOvergrown,\u201d out Tuesday (Apr. 9) on Republic Records, Blake\u2019s gone from cult fixation to mainstream boy wonder. But with the increased profile comes increased pressure. Can he replicate the “wow” factor of his left-field debut? Is that even a reasonable expectation?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
