Jamie xx – In Waves (CD)
Product Details
Jamie xx spent nearly a decade helming some of the most beloved productions in modern UK music, from his work shaping The xx's hushed intimacy to remixes that quietly rewired dance floors worldwide. In Waves arrives as his first solo full-length since In Colour, and where that 2015 debut felt like a solitary late-night drive, this one sounds built for bodies in rooms together, drawing on UK garage, rave, and club traditions he's absorbed across years of DJ sets.
The long-awaited new album by Jamie xx In Waves is the next chapter in the career of one of the most in demand producers of his generation. With In Waves, Jamie replicates the emotional crescendos and thrilling volatility of an almost mystical night out- one where you return home in the cigarette ash dawn, the specifics of the last eight hours already blurring, but aware that these feelings will remain a crystalline memory. In Waves is a melancholy paradise of bliss, heartbreak, and introspection. The story of a journey where you merge into the divine pulse of shadows, light, and dancefloor rhythms. A strobelight epiphany about the illimitable possibilities and spiritual capacities of humanity. Nine years after his debut solo masterpiece, In Colour the London producer has not only eclipsed the heights of it's predecessor, he's somehow made all supernatural adjectives and analogies seem understated.
