Far Nearer & Beat For

Iedereen heeft vast wel eens van The xx gehoord. Welnu, één van de leden, Jamie xx, is ook een bevlogen dj. Check hieronder twee nieuwe tracks van zijn hand. Fijn spul. Vooral dat tweede nummer.

"Far Nearer
‘Far Nearer’ is an understated yet powerful production, its ecstatic, steel drum-driven rhythm merging beautifully with the pitch bent and re-interpreted vocal phrase “I Feel Better When I Have You Near Me”.
Beat For
Countering the sweetness of Far Nearer is B-side track ‘Beat For’, a dark and brooding beast blending half-remembered rave hooks with the same sense of rhythm and space that characterizes Jamie’s work with The xx."
