London artist/poet Sofia Mattioli took a unique approach in creating a video for Jamie xx's "Sleep Sound." She actually explains how it came about in the video saying, "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."
She ended up getting 13 members of the Manchester Deaf Centre to dance in the video. They respond to the "vibrations in the air given off by the song.” Watch the video above.
Jamie xx’s “Girl / Sleep Sound” drops May 5.
