Jamie xx: In Waves [Young]
It’s been nearly a decade since Jamie xx went solo and dropped In Colour. Now, the DJ and producer is finally releasing his sophomore solo album, In Waves. Collaborating with the likes of Robyn, Panda Bear, xx bandmates Romy and Oliver Sim, Kelsey Lu, and the Avalanches, Jamie xx set out to make a record that is “fun, joyful, and introspective all at once,” as he put it in the album announcement.
