Jamie xx's In Colour gets an anniversary reissue here, and a worthy one it is too. First released in 2015, marked his first solo full-length after years of producing with The xx. It's a sharp, brilliantly constructed album born out of UK club culture, pirate radio, and late-night London streets. Tracks like 'Gosh' hit straight out of the blocks, with chopped samples building the tension, while the gorgeous 'Loud Places' provides a breathtaking moment of unfettered emotion (and simultaneously directs a whole new generation to the wonders of Idris Muhammad's 'Could Heaven Ever Be Like This'). Then there's 'I Know There's Gonna Be (Good Times)' - a curveball that works, loose and bright without losing the thread. Jamie's skill lies in how precisely everything's placed, but there's enough soul to ensure the music doesn't come off clinical. It's warm, physical, and clearly built by someone who's spent time listening closely (to grime, garage, jungle, and everything in between). Ten years on, it still holds up as one of the strongest statements from the post-dubstep era.
