Jamie xx performed this gem during his Night + Day set in Berlin. I’m really hoping this means some new solo offerings from Jamie are on the way. Stream the new track below (courtesy of this song is sick), then head on over to the Red Bull Music Academy and watch the entire live set.
Night + Day is a series of outdoor events created and curated by The xx.
The events are defined by their unique locations and extraordinary line-ups. 2013 saw the first 3 instalments of Night+Day in an abandoned theme park in Berlin, a 15th century fort in Lisbon, and the gardens of the former home of Queen Elizabeth the first outside of London.
Here’s a quick look at London.

The xx asked one of their favorite labels, Berlin-based Innervisions, to have three of it’s artists remix tracks from Coexist. The result is Youngvisions, a collaborative release between The xx’s label Young Turks and Innervisions. Hear Dixon’s remix of “Tides” below and stream all three remixes on Spotify.
The xx – Live at The Greek Theatre in Berkeley – June 1st, 2013
This was their biggest US show to date, and they exceded even my highest expectations. If you have the chance, you must see them live. Absolutely incredible.
Show openers Exile, Choosey, and Hundred Waters were fantastic as well.
My good friend, and frequent collaborator, Brendan Fay (aka 35mmBeats) was able to snap some awesome photos from the show. Check out a few of my favorite shots below. I was also able to got some decent video from the show, I hope to post it sooner than later. And last, but not least, stream the show’s setlist on Spotify.
