On this review I will be reviewing an old album which was released in 2015. Which is Jamie xx album "In Colour".
Jamie xx is a British producer who has been making music since 2009. We all may be familar with him as Jamie is in an Indie pop band called "The xx" with Romy Madley Croft and Oliver sim. I have been a fan of the band and a fan of Jamie. Since Jamie released his debut album "In Colour" this album was one of the favourites to win the Mercury Prize in 2015 which it didn't. But I am glad that it was nominated because this album is just fantastic, As a fan of Jamie xx his production is one of the best he is one of my favourite producers. I really enjoy listening to Jamie music whenever his with the band and whenever his doing solo work. But lets get on discussing more about this album. I have heard this album a lot of the last 2 years since it was released and what I can say about this album is it is such a fantastic album. It has different genres on this album such as Electronica, UK Garage, House, Folktronica and many more, I really liked how Jamie made different good sounds to put on this album. Jamie started to make the album when the xx made their debut album back in 2009. It took Jamie 6 years to make the album from 2009-2015 Even though he was finishing off the xx second studio album "Coexist" back in 2012. Since hearing Jamie debut album I was just so impressed and admired how great this album is. Tracks such as "Gosh" Sleep Sound" "Obvs" "Stranger In The Room" "Loud Places," "Girl" and loads more. These tracks was just so good production is fantastic, In my opinion Jamie xx is one of the best British Producers in Britain.
Moving on to my favourite tracks on the album which were "Gosh", "Sleep Sound", "Obvs", "Loud Places", and "Girl". Starting off "Gosh" which is the opening track to Jamie debut album. I loved the build up of the track. I loved how it slightly goes a bit faster and faster in the build up. Excellent production with a bit of Folktronica. Moving on to my other favourite tracks which was a track called "Sleep Sound". This track has a mixture of House and a bit of Electronica. This was one of the tracks that I enjoyed a lot. Another one of my favourite tracks was a track called "Obvs". "Obvs" was an interesting track I loved how Jamie used Reggae drums on this track it is really catchy. Moving on to "Loud Places" which was a track that made me want to smile of how good this track is, It is featured Romy Madley Croft which she is from the band the xx. I really loved how Jamie included one of the band members on this amazing track. However he also included Oliver as well in a track called "Stranger In A Room". Lastly my last favourite track on the album was the ending track called "Girl" which in my opinion is another House track which has been on repeat for me one of the tracks that I listen to non stop. All of the tracks were really good. I do not have a least favourite.
Overall this is a fantastic album I would definitely listen to it again it is a 9/10
