As part of the Mercury Prize-winning group The xx, and in his solo work, he’s crafted a sound that blends indie, R&B, and dance in ways that feel both innovative and deeply resonant.
His ability to fuse these genres has made him a go-to remixer, especially evident in his 2011 project We’re New Here, where he reimagined Gil Scott-Heron’s final recordings. It was more than just a remix album—it was a reinvention.
As a solo artist, Jamie xx brought a new kind of depth to his music. Tracks like ‘Under One Roof Raving’ and his 2015 album In Colour mix the pulse of dance music with an atmospheric touch that’s both fresh and familiar, pushing the boundaries of what dance music can be.
Jamie xx isn’t one to stay still. His latest singles, ‘All You Children’ with The Avalanches and ‘Baddy on the Floor’ with Honey Dijon, offer a preview of what’s next. With his upcoming album, In Waves, dropping on September 20, he’s set to continue evolving, exploring new sounds and textures.
