Jamie xx has followed up ‘Sleep Sound’ / ‘Girl’ with a new single (already on iTunes) entitled ‘All Under One Roof Raving’.
“I wanted to make something I could play out when I got home that reminded people of how good home is,” Jamie told Annie Mac last Friday. The song samples Mark Leckey’s 1999 documentary Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore and has more of Jamie’s trademark steel drum sound.
“I made All Under One Roof Raving whilst on the tail end of another year on the road with The xx. I was missing life in London and trawling through any music and videos that reminded me of home. One in particular I found very inspiring, Mark Leckey’s ‘Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore.’
I made this track in order to play out back home as I knew the year to come would be spent largely in the UK, DJing and making my own album. It serves as a reminder, not to take any time for granted at home or away.”
