When did you first hear this song?

I was at my first festival and Jamie XX was headlining. There was a couple making out in front of me, one pushed me, apologised, and offered to take me on his back for the next song. We were close to the stage and there was a light drizzle which only added to the insane visuals of rainbow led lights.
