About this item

Nine years on from the release of his seminal GRAMMY, BRIT, Ivor Novello and Mercury Music Prize-nominated debut album 'In Colour', London musician, DJ and producer Jamie xx announces his long-awaited second album 'In Waves'. Across 12 tracks including 'Baddy On The Floor', his joyous summer collaboration with club culture icon Honey Dijon, Jamie xx replicates the emotional crescendos and thrilling volatility of an almost mystical night out and features further collaborations with Robyn, The Avalanches, Kelsey Lu, John Glacier and Panda Bear, Oona Doherty and his The xx bandmates Romy and Oliver Sim. Created over a four year period ushered in by his much-loved 2020 Essential Mix and peppered with periods of self-reflection, a global pandemic, the blinking reemergence into the strobelight and a newly discovered love of surfing as escapism, it’s an album that's on course to eclipse the heights of its globally acclaimed predecessor.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: Nine years have elapsed since the release of one of Piccadilly's most requested LP's, Jamie XX's 'In Colour', and the world is certainly ready for the next outing. So what's on the cards? Well, it's beautifully rich, driven dancefloor electronica that moves deftly between the outer reaches of house, trance and IDM with a lovely selection of guest vocals including Romy and Oliver Sim. Though In Colour was a bright and impactful statement, 'In Waves' shows a marked maturation of sound and execution. Brilliant.
