Listen: Jamie xx Delivers Uplifting Two-Hour Essential Mix

Ryan Middleton • Apr 27, 2020

Home / Music

Jamie xx took over the controls at the BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix decks this weekend.

The mix comes on the back of Jamie xx’s first solo release in five years “Idontknow,” which sits towards the end of the mix. He includes some music from a host of others including some uplifting soul, psychedelic bits and unreleased stuff from himself that he had spent the last few weeks working on.

This is me about midday, after I’d been up all night working on the mix. The Essential Mix has always been an important one for me, been listening to it since before I was allowed to go to clubs. I spent the last two weeks trying to finish music so that it could be in here. Had a lot of fun! I hope you enjoy and can dance around your houses to it, and with friends online. We’ve just set up a chat room on my website for the night, join anytime and listen along live on @bbcradio1 for 2 hours from 1am London 8pm NYC 5pm LA 10am Sydney 9am Tokyo
