The xx brilliance

I love my music. Anyone who knows me, knows that the music is always pumping in my car, on my iPod, on my laptop, when I'm at work or discovering new artists. It can be rock, indie, pop, classical to dance. The genre doesn't matter. Give me a great song or artist and you're guaranteed I will love them.

I happened to cross paths with The xx, an indie-rock band from Wandsworth in South West London - when one of my favourite songs by Florence and the Machine - You Got The Love was remixed by them, which slowed it down to give a whole new dimension to the already brilliant classic that Florence Welch redid. A few weeks ago, a friend sent me a link to a superb playlist which once again featured The xx. One click later on Basic Space (Pariah remix); I found my new favourite artist. 

I'm totally enjoying The xx and they have some fantastic songs to offer such as:

The xx - Basic Space  and the Pariah remix (fantastic)




The xx - Stars (which is also different version within Notorious B.I.G album they remixed)

Have a listen, let me know what you think?
