Jamie xx: “Idontknow” Video
Filmed in Belfast in March 2020, the night before
Northern Ireland went into lockdown.
London’s Jamie xx has shared a video for his track “Idontknow”, his first solo artist release since his 2015 debut album “In Colour”. The video features Belfast dancer and choreographer Oona Doherty, who co-directed the film with Luca Truffarelli. The pair filmed the video in Belfast in March 2020, the night before Northern Ireland went into lockdown.
Without knowing the artist behind it, people have been raving to “Idontknow” since late autumn 2019 when Jamie first debuted the track. Since then, the track has taken on a life of its own in clubs and on dancefloors around the world, garnering huge support. “I made ‘Idontknow’ as an outlet for my frustration over not being able to finish any music for a while. I tried to be less precious with my ideas and just let go. I then watched this translate onto the dance floor when I started playing it out last year. Now, we can’t go out to dance and we need an outlet more than ever, I hope you dance to it at home and let go for a moment.” The single “Idontknow” is out now via Young Turks.
