Canon Blue is primarily Nashville, Tennessee's Daniel James, whose indie-tronic songs result from interest in electronic acts <a href="spotify:artist:2VAvhf61GgLYmC6C8anyX1">Boards of Canada</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:6WH1V41LwGDGmlPUhSZLHO">Autechre</a> as well as songwriters <a href="spotify:artist:01C9OoXDvCKkGcf735Tcfo">Serge Gainsbourg</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:5c3GLXai8YOMid29ZEuR9y">Nick Drake</a>. His Colonies LP saw a September 2007 release in Europe through the Danish <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Rumraket%22">Rumraket</a> label. The record was mixed by Chris Taylor of <a href="spotify:artist:2Jv5eshHtLycR6R8KQCdc4">Grizzly Bear</a> and mastered by noted electronic artist <a href="spotify:artist:0eNVBq4ee0qY2FCY3oSorx">Cristian Vogel</a>. While on tour in Europe, James began work on his next album, recording between shows and working with the <a href="spotify:artist:79MO0KcrOdScKyzuDTtI3k">Amiina</a> string quartet to expand his sound into more orchestral territories. The result was the lush and eclectic 2011 album Rumspringa, which was released by <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Temporary+Residence%22">Temporary Residence</a>. After struggling for several years with worsening bouts of anxiety and depression, James re-emerged in 2017 with his third Canon Blue LP, Lasso Yo, also on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Temporary+Residence%22">Temporary Residence</a>. His most personal record yet, it was performed, recorded, and produced by James, and mixed by <a href="spotify:artist:3WggbHDpj4rPKbL97zG5MQ">Tortoise</a>'s <a href="spotify:artist:39xjP2biuKg7i0U6DwoRHg">John McEntire</a>. ~ Kenyon Hopkin, Rovi
