The xx For Club Music Album
The xx have revealed that their next album has been inspired by club music.
The revelation came during an interview with band member and hot-shot producer Jamie xx with The Creators Project when he said, ‘The majority of stuff that I’m working now is The xx stuff. We’re just about to start recording. Hopefully we’ll get it done in time to be asked to do festivals next year, because that’s the most fun. We’ve all come back off tour and [have] kind of been partying a little bit more. So club music has definitely had an influence on the next record.’
The second album has been much anticipated since their self-titled debut release won the 2010 Mercury Prize with work beginning on their second effort last month. The band will be back on the festival circuit next summer so hopefully we’ll get to hear some of these new, upbeat tracks before then.
