Why do we like this?

So, iTunes is giving this awesome remix away for free. And when I checked out the landing page (I think it's Australia only?), I noticed an awesome customer review:

It's free, but I really have no idea who the artist is. Apple, you should concentrate on stuff people really want for free. Not a randomly chosen album!

Who the fuck are The xx?! It kinda reminds me of the whole Bonny Bear incident when Justin Vernon won a Grammy.

Needless to say, Jamie xx's remix of the song "Sunset" (by his...band) is actually one of my favorite remixes from his camp thus far. All too often these end up being downtempo, but there's a certain funky beat to this track that balances things out well.
