The XX - VCR


OK, so these guys have blown up now and since Mercury Music Prize fame, they've been pretty much everywhere. From T.V adverts, backing music on BBC programmes, and accompanying all U.S teen drama make out scenes; you cannot deny these guys there dues.

For such a young outfit, their music sound really adult and grown up. It's the sort of chill out music you can have on in the background, or alternatively just simply put your headphones on and drift off to a world of make believe.

It's music for a new generation of kids - kids who want something different to unwind to and not too much fuss over it either.

This one's a fave of mine, nice quaint plucks and soft tones dripping all over it. Only a few beats that go over a whisper and a musical pace to match that of normal breathing - why can't all music be this simply complicated - it sounds effortless, but deep enough to keep you hooked.

It's pleasing to know that there are still bands out there putting out wonderfully colourful and engaging music for everyone to enjoy - this is make-out music of the highest calibre ;)
