Third Time's A Charm: Jamie XX remixes Radiohead's 'Bloom' (one more time)

You can never be too rich, too thin, or have too many of Jamie XX's  Radiohead remixes. The first in the series of Jamie XX's Bloom remixes debuted in September 2011 on Radiohead's TKOL RMX 1234567 album. TKOL RMX 1234567 features seven remixes by various artists including SBTRKT, Modeselektor, Four Tet, and of course Jamie XX. The second remix done by Jamie is unfortunately, nowhere to be found (trust me, I've looked,) but sources say it does exist. Leaving us Jamie and Radiohead fans, to pray to the music gods for its highly anticipated release. The third and most recent remix of Radiohead's Bloom, (DL below) will be released as a stand alone single by Indie label Young Turks on 12" vinyl on January 23. This remix boasts an entirely different sound than the original song. Clearly a club mix, the nearly eight minute track subtly rises and falls in and out of ambient grooves in traditional Jamie XX fashion. Proving once again that he can do no wrong as a DJ or producer.
