In February 2010, Gil Scott-Heron released ‘I’m New Here’, his first album in thirteen years, and sadly his last. Produced by XL Recordings head Richard Russell during various studio sessions in New York, the album was enthusiastically received by fans and critics alike. So what happens when one of the most exciting young producers around reworks one of the most acclaimed albums from a true legend? the result is Gil Scott-Heron and Jamie XX’s ‘We’re New Here’ which sees jamie xx remixing thirteen tracks from the original ‘i’m new here’ album sessions.
