Jamie xx has shared the video for his new track 'Sleep Sound', and just like the song, it's gorgeous. Check it out below.

The clip accompanying the soothing track sees a variety of people pulling shapes to the song, but the meaning goes a lot deeper than that, as director Sofia Mattioli explained to Nowness.

"I was on a train listening to music, getting deep into it, and this girl started staring at me. After a while I took my headphones off and she came up to me, started signing and then wrote me a note to say that she was deaf but could almost feel the music by my movement."

The video features 13 members of the Manchester Deaf Centre, dancing to the track the first time they heard it. There's something wonderfully enchanting about it - much like 'Sleep Sound' itself. 

 

'Sleep Sound/Girl' is released May 5.
