Xavier is xaviersobased’s major label debut

Xavier, released January 30 on Atlantic Records, was Xavier’s major label debut, following a 2 year period without full length releases. The album continues the development of Xavier’s signature style, defined by surprising and “jagged” synths, pulsating 808s and out of the box samples (like 2024’s “fix my mind” which features the sound of a Mac startup).

He’s upping the sound quality on the new album (some old songs were recorded on a gaming headset). “I’m still pushing the sound, but now we could put this in the club,” he tells The FADER. “Make it more — not accessible — but just package it better.”
