For the next 72 hours you can download the xx's xxmas EP over at iTunes (for non-U.S. residents) as part of their 12 Days of Christmas celebration. The EP features an extended edit by Jamie xx of "Sunset" along with videos for "Angels" and "Chained."
On the remix of "Sunset" Jamie xx once again transforms an already great xx track into a more dance-friendly number. The song was released via Facebook with the following message:
Happy 2013 everyone! We can't wait for the next year to unfold. To start it off with a bang Jamie has done an edit of Sunset. It is available for free over the next 72 hours on iTunes (sadly not in the US though) but you can find it on Youtube. Love, xx The xx
