Man from The xx remixes Gil Scott-Heron

Check out 'NY Is Killing Me' now

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 01 Dec 2010

Jamie xx, of Mercury Prize-winning act The xx, has been releasing a ton of remixes since he hit the scene and his latest work is probably his most high profile yet. Taking and twisting one of the albums of the year, I'm New Here (which marked Gil Scott Heron's return to music), xx has reworked all 13 of Heron's tracks.

The remix album We're New Here is out February 21 2011, but you can get stream one of the tracks, 'NY Is Killing Me', below to get a feel for it.

You can also buy the track from here or check out the video here.

The XX Tripod, Dublin

Low-key from the glum expressions to the near matching get-ups (they’re head-to-toe in black, naturally), The XX arrive on stage at the Tripod to a rowdy welcome. Or perhaps it just seems that way because the happily awkward trio are the least rowdy outfit this joint’s ever seen.
