Jamie xx is back with the single “It’s So Good,” his first piece of new solo music in over a year.
“It’s So Good” is released as the soundtrack to the latest Chanel Coco Crush campaign, and even us plebeians can feel the luxury fashion tie-in. The song begins with a vocal sample proclaiming its title, before it’s taken over by a sleek, uptempo beat that feels tailor-made — no pun intended — for the Paris Fashion Week catwalk.
Stream “It’s So Good” below.
Jamie’s last single was 2022’s “Kill Dem,” though he’s also lent production work to his xx bandmates Oliver Sim and Romy on their respective solo albums. Jamie’s been teasing the long-awaited follow-up to his 2015 stone-cold classic In Colour, while a new xx album is coming down the pipeline as well.

Romy has revealed that The xx are back in the studio working on their fourth album.
The singer, songwriter, and producer confirmed the news at Australia’s Beyond the Valley Festival last weekend, telling NME that the trio’s sessions are feeling “quite wide open” at the moment: “I think Oliver [Sim] and Jamie [xx] and I have all tried new things and learned a lot from different projects and I think that’s quite healthy to be like, ‘What have you learned? What should we do now?'”
Though Romy’s 2023 debut solo album, Mid Air, fell firmly in the tradition of house and dance music, she said to NME last year that she’d be picking up the guitar once again for the trio’s next project. Regarding how the next xx album will sound, Romy shared that while it’s still “wide open” and early on in the process,...

In the article series Sound and Vision we take a look at music videos from notable directors. This week we look at Bronski Beat's Smalltown Boy, directed by Bernard Rose. Before we go on to talk about the main topic at hand in this week's Sound and Vision, the music video that Bernard Rose directed for Bronski Beat's Smalltown Boy, I would like to highlight a different music video by an entirely different director. The video in question is Yann Gonzalez's music video for Oliver Sim's Hideous, itself an outtake from an album film by the same name that can be watched on Mubi. In it we see Oliver Sim as a monstrous figure trying to find love and redemption. The entire thing is meant...

The xx’s Oliver Sim has decided to call off a run of fall shows in support of his upcoming solo debut, Hideous Bastard.

Heading into his first edition at the helm of the Neuchatel Intl. Fantastic Film Festival (Nifff), artistic director Pierre-Yves Walder looked to land his white whale, setting his sights on a retrospective idea he’d dreamed up many years before.
“In concrete terms, I’ve wanted to do this ever since I first applied to the festival,” Walder says of Scream Queer, a pet project that reflects on Lgbtiq+ representation through the lens of the fantastic. “I wanted to explore social elements through genre, which has always been a mirror for society, a place to express certain unmentionable ideas in abstract, using metaphor to explore subjects off limits in more direct approaches.”
Showcasing 15 films curated by Walder and his team and another four selected by The xx singer Oliver Sim, this year’s centerpiece retrospective brings together camp items like “Nightmare on Elm Street II,” cult classics like the Wachowski...
