Jamie xx, born James Smith in London in 1988, first made his name as the producer and beat architect behind the xx, the hushed indie pop band he's often credited with driving to their commercial and critical success. On his own, armed with a sampler and a crate-digger's instincts, he makes house music that feels like the memory of a night out rather than the night itself.

In Colour, his 2015 solo debut on Young and XL Recordings, is the proof. "Loud Places", a wistful vocal floating over a gospel-tinged swell, is the kind of dance track that makes you want to cry and move at once, while "Gosh" rattles with pirate-radio energy and "I Know There's Gonna Be (Good Times)" struts in with a dancehall grin. The album brought a Mercury Prize nomination in 2015 and a Grammy nod for Best Dance/Electronic Album.

Nearly a decade later he came back with In Waves in 2024, and "All You Children" showed he still knew exactly how to make a room jump.
