His latest, Bullion-produced track follows on from ‘Obsession’, which landed back in the summer.

The xx's Oliver Sim offers up new single 'Telephone Games'

A few weeks on from returning with his latest single, Oliver Sim has returned with a serene new track in the form of ‘Telephone Games’. 

The warm, electro-pop offering lands just on the right side of flirty, and comes produced by his frequent collaborator Bullion, who also worked the aforementioned previous single, ‘Obsession’. The pair of tracks mark his first new material since the release of his debut solo album ‘Hideous Bastard’, and land after a busy summer of activity with his bandmates in The xx, who recently appeared together at both Milan Fashion Week and Jamie xx’s LIDO performance. What’s more, they’re now officially working on their next record together; their first since 2017’s ‘I See You’.

Alongside Oliver’s newest track, he’s also shared its brilliantly irreverent video, as directed by photographer and filmmaker Sharna Osborne. Check it out below.
