This week, however, we’re making an exception. Trust us, it’s worth it. FACT mix 239 is a recording of the headline set at last Friday’s FACT and Young Turks party, a back-to-back session between Jamie Smith, percussionist in the xx and renowned producer in his own right, and South London’s Oneman, one of the city’s most reliably brilliant DJs, with a revered show on Rinse FM (not to mention a Rinse CD) and a promising label in 502 (home of Jay Weed, TEETH and Fis-T). Every track is pretty much a highlight here, but some idea of what to expect, Boddika & Joy Orbison’s new collaboration ‘Swims’, DJ Zinc, Dizzee Rascal, Ruff Sqwad, Shed, Armand Van Helden, Girl Unit and ‘Ring my Bell’ all feature.
If you want to watch video footage of the set, head over to the Boiler Room, who were kind enough to come down and stream the night – which also featured sets from Hyetal, DJ Rashad and more – to the world.

Jamie XX & Yasmin live at Boiler Room, London – Valentine’s Special. “London’s infamous Boiler Room has rapidly established itself as one of the musical highlights of the London work-week.
The project started out broadcasting DIY home footage of a small group of DJs jamming in a humid boiler room (go figure) contained in a secret warehouse. As weeks went by, the homespun TV channel found itself relocating to a much larger space and hosting bigger and bigger names for each session, as well as building a passionate fanbase of punters willing to queue for hours to attend the intimate recording sessions. With regular DJs on rotation that include Theo Parrish, Bullion, SBTRKT, Loefah, Oneman, Hessle Audio, and many more, it was high time that we began documenting these oft-discussed music sharing sessions.
Usually the Boiler Room is synonymous with Tuesdays.
