Jamie xx’s New Video for “Idontknow”

In the darkness of an empty Belfast, Jamie xx’s new music video was filmed the night before Northern Ireland went under lockdown.

Last month Jamie xx released his first solo track since 2015’s LP In Colour, titled “Idontknow.” On Wednesday the electronic-garage musician, who started out with UK group The xx, dropped a video for his latest song.

Featuring Belfast-based dancer and choreographer Oona Doherty, the intensely cinematic music video was filmed in March the night before Northern Ireland went under lockdown due to the coronavirus. With co-direction from Doherty and Luca Truffarelli, the world of Jamie xx’s “Idontknow” comes to life.
