First time hearing this was at Leeds fest in 2015. I went to the stage to see deadmau5, but Jamie was on a few slots before. I'll never forget the power of the bass as it hit me like a truck. I'd never felt anything like it before in my life. The whole tent just fell quiet in awe at this song, you could feel the collective energy between everyone. From that day on, In Colour became one of my favourite albums of all time.

[@briannachartrand2419]

God I wish I was there this experience sounds amazing, thank you for sharing

[@JoelWest]

Still sounding unreal 7 years later. What a track!

[@brahm4499]

This is a rare song that can be listened to at anytime, but hits different every once and a while

[@antonellasilva7970]

I listened this song on tik tok 😅

[@diaz6884]

Check out Central by John frusciante it has the same effect on me

[@seanm5457]

If you're wondering, the voices are a sample of It's A Blue World by The Four Freshmen. It's a 40s/50s era song, and they were a major inspiration for Brian Wilson to learn vocal harmonies which he used for the Beach Boys. Jamie XX uses this sample brilliantly, what a gorgeous song!!

[@russtoday]

no way. thats the sample for mac miller - blue world. wow. two of my favorite artists. never knew that was the sample

[@CC-vw1cs]

Cool thanks will look up !

[@MrLordofcoffee]

This man is a genius, like seriously am I the only one who went on a spiritual journey to this song?

[@KingJuJrdaMuffinMan]

not the first one, won't be the last ;)

[@zygisnakas705]

i thought i was the only one that listened to this and was blown away every time. 3 years later and somehow even more so each time

[@elizabethreapy6086]

Same

[@spacejesus321]

me and my friends snuck into a forest beach at night and smoked weed and layed down on the sand looking at the stars with a huge speaker and this started playing and ever since then i fell in love with this song. all i imagine is walking through the pitch black forest with my led lantern with this song.

[@Achachucha]

absolutely.

[@OLLYM2023]

I believe the reason it's so beautiful is because it was inspiring engineering aimed to help young deaf children feel the music as most of us do, the human treasure which is the sense of hearing....we all take it for granted, our ears working correctly and sounds as wonderful as these. How inspiring to have cared about the frequencies any child with a hearing impediment would also love. XX

[@dnntrzt]

no matter how much time passes there will always be a moment in our lives when the memory of each one comes to listen to this song again

[@GappieFN]

6 years later and its still a banger

[@lorenzoenobando8599]

Goddamn it sounds different every year it feels like! 👌

[@dereklewis4321]

@@lorenzoenobando8599 This song is like a Christopher Nolan film. Every repeat listen i pick up something new

[@JamalGleeson]

I love these sorts of tracks by him, the deep but airy sounds, the very dosed but meaningful tones just give you a scope, creating fluctuating worlds pop up in an empty space.

[@arabellaaspen2713]

Ain't nothin' like a u t h e n t I c v i e w s when you tryna make it big in the game like them top singers, gettin' that same kinda fame they got. Even Jamie xx got a piece of that action."

[@Sarah2Rook]

The voices in this song sound like they're in pain... but somehow in a comforting way. It feels like we're all going through something together

[@Kame711x]

This song sent me into another dimension where everything and everyone is ultra mega chill.

A few yrs behind lol but that's currently me, found this after listening to Christian loffler's Haul

[@robertschneider9789]

Buy the album. It's really worth it! Every song hss its own sound. So creative!! 👍👍

[@CC-vw1cs]

I love the delicate balance of whimsy mixed with club beats, powerful stuff ❤

This song makes me feel some typa way.I can't help but imagine driving around the countryside at night with this music playing and the windows down, with the people you love around you; enjoying the moment.

[@myyKINDALOVee]

Mitch has done it again. Love this! The intro is so interesting and then you gotta that dance feel and cool vocal samples.

[@Freddypimms]

You can tell he makes music straight from the heart.

[@mattjarvie6443]

This track has an early morning in the summer chillwave aesthetic to it. A very hazy sound that evokes a definite atmosphere.

[@ceke]

I had the pleasure of seeing Jamie XX and Friends at NOS Alive in Portugal this year, the highlight of my year, the best shit ever and i'll never forget it, every time i think about it, i get emotional.

[@juanv.403]

This song takes you through so many dimensions and a roller-coaster of senses. I can't get enough. Beautifully created!

[@lorenzoeldude]

I must have listened to this song over a thousand times now over the the last 6 years and it's still one of my favs of all time.

[@Tommo_]

Jamie xx is a musical genius. Enough said.

[@cycy805]

definitely

[@bobbynetz5058]

i Agree

[@Exige000]

said the deaf guy.

[@8888daniel]

maybe if in colour wasn’t chock full of filler than yeah

[@JanneWolterbeek]

disagree, Tom Vernon, 'musical genius' is too weak to describe Jamie xx's talent.

[@Moody13553]

I'm autistic and this track is really good for me!! 😂❤❤

[@Krzyz48]

Seriously one of the best songs to come in recent years. Incredible track, really really special.

[@thhun281]

Mitch brought me here! Thanks again SUPERFRUIT for suggesting awesome songs to listen to every week!

[@ControlDesigns]

This song and the album completely encapsulates what nightlife in the UK feels like.

[@goodreason6462]

same with nigeria

[@joshormerod5382]

Nah, David Guetta sums up UK nightlife pretty well. Shit music, sticky bars and loud dickheads!

[@ControlDesigns]

I don't mean clubs, I mean just the general atmosphere of walking around the UK at night.

[@joshormerod5382]

I get you. Back in the day (2008-2009) I got a similar vibe from 'Hurt You' by Chase n Status

[@goodreason6462]

nah, nigeria.

Flume's favorite song of 2014

[@alexgamer26]

I thought it was sweet that i had a couple of his faves in my playlist

[@adriancastro3232]

Me fascina cómo el beat y la melodía se desintegran o derriten después de unos compases y vuelven a levantarse al inicio de los siguientes, se siente como una euforia interrumpida que no te lleva de largo, pero te avisa que va a continuar subiendo y bajando contigo, te invita a disfrutar de lo que sientes en ese instante que no será el mismo que antes, pero te desliza en cada detalle y cada silencio

[@feevalerie6748]

This song made me laughing and running through my house after a period of sadness and self-doubt

[@verne06]
