Dev Hynes Hints At New Blood Orange Material

Snippet of music posted on Instagram...

Dev Hynes has posted a snippet of new material online that could point towards a new Blood Orange album.

The British-born, New York based musician told a festival crowd earlier this year that his new album was "78% done", following lengthy writing sessions.

Now Dev Hynes has shared a new snippet on Instagram, along with the short but revealing message "4(?)".

The songwriter's last album 'Freetown Sound' dealt with his heritage as the children of immigrants, and the new material is said to continue this story, dealing with his childhood in Essex.

He told the New Yorker Festival: “A lot of the new songs on the new album deal with growing up and childhood in England. Looking at the country that made me.”

Check out the snippet of new material below.
