Jamie xx links up with The Avalanches on new single, "All You Children"
London musician, DJ and producer Jamie xx has released the brand new single, “All You Children”, taken from his forthcoming second album In Waves.
"All You Children" is the second collaboration from the two artists, with Jamie previously contributing (alongside Neneh Cherry) to “Wherever You Go” from The Avalanches’ 2020 album We Will Always Love You.
Speaking about “All You Children”, Jamie xx says: “The Avalanches have always been an inspiration for me. Their sample technique and how they piece together different sounds is incredible and collaborating on a track with them has showed me new ways of making music.” while The Avalanches add: “We’re so excited about the release of this track with Jamie “All You Children.” We hope you love it as much as we do.”
The forthcoming release comes nine years on from the release of his GRAMMY, BRIT, Ivor Novello and Mercury Music Prize-nominated debut album, In Colour, and sees Jamie collaborate with Honey Dijon, Robyn, Kelsey Lu, John Glacier and Panda Bear, Oona Doherty and his The xx bandmates Romy and Oliver Sim.
In Waves will be available as a deluxe LP which will feature a bonus 12” of previous singles “It’s So Good”, “KILL DEM” and “LET’S DO IT AGAIN” plus two exclusive new tracks: “F U (ft. Erykah Badu)” and “Do Something”.
In Waves will be released on 20 September via Young, and is available to pre-order now.
