James Blake - The Wilhelm Scream

Minimalist glitch-step heart-broken love song, anyone? I have slobbered over James Blake and his creations before. But this merits further adoration. The soundscape is incredibly textured, and the vocal is exquisite. Also, he's proper fit.

The Wilhelm Scream is apparently the name of a sound effect used in Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and various other blockbusters. The Wikipedia article about it is interesting, if you don't mind filling your mind with useless knowledge that will never even come up in a pub quiz.
