Jamie xx

A lot of new genres were being born at the time I started going out to clubs in South London, and I was part of an exciting movement that has now blown up around the world.

I'm always getting sent new stuff, so I have to incorporate digital equipment into my sets, but I try to play vinyl as much as possible. It's just the best-sounding format still. And I've been using vinyl since I started deejaying, for over 15 years, so it also just feels the most natural for me.

I work with talented people. I'm just their tool.

I'm a mess. My house is full of records, and my computer... I can't find the things that I want. But it usually seems to work out.
