first heard this on jamie xx's mix for collette and was blown away. glad that this is finally out!
jamie should really stick to this sound instead of far nearer. gotta keep a lookout for this guy.

i wrote on the track here http://thekort.com/post/1728594306/jxxgsh

think this one's much better than Far Nearer, but I do appreciate him sticking to a similar palette of sounds. the melody is already stuck in my head!

Really good stuff. Bass on this track sounds great. What's the rest of Jamie xx's stuff like?

I remember hearing this when he played it on the boiler room and being pretty amazed its great to be able to hear it in full quite a menacing vibe. Jamie xx is clearly a very talented producer his own work and production on the xx album are great.

Had the original album on repeat for about a fortnight, was hoping 'We're New Here' would be out before Christmas :( At least this will tide me over til the end of Feb, big tune.

This the same deal as Jamie/Roly Vex'd to 'the xx' then? Track is pretty cool, I thought the xx were like a shitty indie band though.
