Interesting piece on 20-30 year old men and the hybrid state of “Child-Man.”

Looks like Jamie Lidell is set for a 2008 release. Check out this performance of Little Bit of Feel Good off Jim.
Looks like he’s got a full band now…I’m not sure how I feel about that. I loved Multiply (my favorite record of 2005) because of its fusion with electronic and soul, but it looks [...]
