Jamie XX - Far Nearer / Beat For

Closer than close, closer than you can ever imagine....

I know that here at Secret Peter we already featured Far Nearer back in 2010 but we thought this would be a perfect time to admit to our readers that we have a slight man crush on Jamie XX, and we don't care who knows it!

Jamie's recent productions have been impeccable, from his snare infested remix of Adele to his incredible reworking of the late Gil Scott Heron’s final studio album I’m New Here. There seems to be no stopping Jamie and now with the release of his first solo single via Numbers it seems he has no intention of lowering the standard.

Far Nearer is a beautifully constructed calypso infused club banger, perfectly timed for the creeping signs of summer. On the flipside the silentone brings us back into the cold and harshness of winter with the sinister Beat For. This track is stripped back bass music at its best, with its metallic drums, pumping bass line and ominous rising chords designed to defecate over any willing dancefloor (yes that’s right I said defecate).

Far Nearer / Beat For is out now via Numbers
